## What it does
|
|
12
|
-
|
|
13
|
-
morph-spec enforces a spec-first development workflow. When you ask for a feature, it does not write code immediately. It runs through structured phases (proposal, design, tasks) with approval gates before a single line of implementation is generated. Each phase produces traceable output files. Every decision is documented.
|
|
14
|
-
|
|
15
|
-
It integrates natively with Claude Code: skills become slash commands, agents become native subagents, hooks inject state context automatically, and rules enforce standards based on file paths.

## Phase workflow
|
|
87
|
-
|
|
88
|
-
Features move through structured phases. Some are optional depending on feature type.
|
|
89
|
-
|
|
90
|
-
```
|
|
91
|
-
proposal → [design] → plan → implement → review
|
|
92
|
-
```
|
|
93
|
-
|
|
94
|
-
`design` is optional — applies only to UI-heavy features.
|
|
95
|
-
|
|
96
|
-

-
| Proposal | `0-proposal/` | `proposal.md`, `stack-scan.md`, `migration-plan.md` (optional) |
|
|
102
|
-
| Design | `1-design/` | `design-system.md`, `mockups.md`, `components.md`, `flows.md` |
|
|
103
|
-
| Plan | `2-plan/` | `spec.md`, `mandate.md`, `tasks.json`, `decisions.md` |
|
|
104
|
-
| Implement | `3-implement/` | `recap.md` + source code |
|

|
|

|
|

|
-
|
|
108
|
-
### Approval gates
|
|
109
|
-
|
|
110
|
-
- **Gate 1 (Proposal)** — Problem statement must be approved before plan.
|
|
111
|
-
- **Gate 2 (Plan)** — Spec + mandate + tasks must be approved before implement.
|
|
112
|
-
- **Gate 3 (Review)** — Review report must be approved before archive.
|
|
113
|
-
|
|
114
|
-
In `trust: "auto"` mode (default), gates auto-pass without risk signals. See `framework/MORPH.md` for risk-signal details.
|
|
115
|
-
|
|
116
|
-
Check gate status:
|
|
117
|
-
|
|
118
|
-
```bash
|
|
119
|
-
morph-spec approval-status {feature}
|
|
120
|
-
```
|
|
121

## Update
|
|
278
|
-
|
|
279
|
-
To update the framework files in an existing project:
|
|
280
|
-
|
|
281
|
-
```bash
|
|
282
|
-
morph-spec update
|
|
283
|
-
```
|
|
284
|
-
|
|
285
|
-
This re-syncs `.morph/framework/`, `.claude/skills/`, `.claude/agents/`, `.claude/rules/`, and `CLAUDE.md` with the installed package version. Your `.morph/config/config.json`, `.morph/context/`, and feature outputs are not touched.
|
|
286
|
-
|
|
287
|
-
After updating, run `morph-spec doctor` to confirm the installation is healthy.
|
|
288
|
-
|
|
289
|
-

|
|
290
|
-
|
|
291
|
-
## Key rules
|
|
292
|
-
|
|
293
|
-
**Never skip phases.** Every feature starts with a proposal. No code is written until the design is approved and a task list exists.
|
|
294
|
-
|
|
295
|
-
**Never edit protected files directly:**
|
|
296
|
-
|
|
297
|
-
- `.morph/state.json` — use `morph-spec state set`
|
|
298
|
-
- `.morph/framework/`** — read-only, updated by `morph-spec update`
|
|
299
|
-
|
|
300
|
-
**Always document decisions.** Each feature has a `2-design/decisions.md`. Architectural choices go there, not in commit messages.
|
|
301
|
-
|
|
302
|
-
**Checkpoints every 3 tasks.** The framework auto-validates architecture compliance, package versions, and security after every third completed task.
|
|
303

## Troubleshooting
|
|
307
|
-
|
|
308
|
-
### `morph-spec: command not found`
|
|
309
|
-
|
|
310
|
-
The installer automatically adds the npm global directory to your PowerShell `$PROFILE`. Open a **new terminal** after installing. If it still doesn't work, add it manually:
|
|
311
|
-
|
|
312
|
-
```bash
|
|
313
|
-
npm config get prefix
|
|
314
|
-
# Add {prefix} to your PATH
|
|
315
|
-
```
|
|
316
|
-
|
|
317
|
-
### `morph-spec doctor` reports issues
|
|
318
|
-
|
|
319
|
-
Run doctor to see all checks:
|
|
320
|
-
|
|
321
|
-
```bash
|
|
322
|
-
morph-spec doctor
|
|
323
|
-
```
|
|
324
|
-
|
|
325
|
-
Common fixes:
|
|
326
|
-
|
|
327
|
-
- **Missing `.claude/agents/`** — run `morph-spec update` to reinstall agents
|
|
328
|
-
- **Missing `.claude/rules/`** — run `morph-spec update` to reinstall rules
|
|
329
|
-
- **State version mismatch** — state auto-migrates on next CLI command; if it fails, back up and re-init
|
|
330
|
-
- **Hooks not firing** — confirm `.claude/settings.local.json` exists and contains the `hooks` key
|
|
331
|
-
|
|
332
|
-
### EPERM on Windows global install
|
|
333
|
-
|
|
334
|
-
Windows may block global npm installs without elevated permissions. Options:
|
|
335
|
-
|
|
336
|
-
1. Run terminal as Administrator (not recommended long-term)
|
|
337
|
-
2. Change npm global prefix to a user-writable directory:
|
|
338
|
-
|
|
339
|
-
```bat
|
|
340
|
-
mkdir %APPDATA%\npm-global
|
|
341
|
-
npm config set prefix %APPDATA%\npm-global
|
|
342
|
-
:: Add %APPDATA%\npm-global to your PATH
|
|
343
|
-
npm install -g @polymorphism-tech/morph-spec
|
|
344
|
-
```
|
|
345
|
-
|
|
346
|
-
1. Open a new terminal (the installer adds npm to your PATH automatically)
|
|
347
|
-
|
|
348
|
-
### Hook not triggering on SessionStart
|
|
349
|
-
|
|
350
|
-
Ensure `.claude/settings.local.json` is not gitignored in your project. The file must be present for Claude Code to load hooks. If it is missing, re-run `morph-spec setup-infra` or `morph-spec init --force`.
|

## Standards
|
|
355
|
-
|
|
356
|
-
The framework ships 82 registered standards across 11 categories, stored in `.morph/framework/standards/STANDARDS.json`. Standards are enforced via path-scoped rules installed to `.claude/rules/` during `morph-spec init`.

## What it does
|
|
12
|
+
|
|
13
|
+
morph-spec enforces a spec-first development workflow. When you ask for a feature, it does not write code immediately. It runs through structured phases (proposal, design, tasks) with approval gates before a single line of implementation is generated. Each phase produces traceable output files. Every decision is documented.
|
|
14
|
+
|
|
15
|
+
It integrates natively with Claude Code: skills become slash commands, agents become native subagents, hooks inject state context automatically, and rules enforce standards based on file paths.

## Phase workflow
|
|
87
|
+
|
|
88
|
+
Features move through structured phases. Some are optional depending on feature type.
|
|
89
|
+
|
|
90
|
+
```
|
|
91
|
+
proposal → [design] → plan → implement → review
|
|
92
|
+
```
|
|
93
|
+
|
|
94
|
+
`design` is optional — applies only to UI-heavy features.
|
|
95
|
+
|
|
96
|
+
### Phase outputs
|
|
97
|
+
|
|
98
|
+
|
|
99
|
+
| Phase | Directory | Key files |
|
|
100
|
+
| --------- | --------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------ |
|
|
101
|
+
| Proposal | `0-proposal/` | `proposal.md`, `stack-scan.md`, `migration-plan.md` (optional) |
|
|
102
|
+
| Design | `1-design/` | `design-system.md`, `mockups.md`, `components.md`, `flows.md` |
|
|
103
|
+
| Plan | `2-plan/` | `spec.md`, `mandate.md`, `tasks.json`, `decisions.md` |
|
|
104
|
+
| Implement | `3-implement/` | `recap.md` + source code |
|
|
105
|
+
| Review | `4-review/` | `review-report.md` |
|
|
106
|
+
|
|
107
|
+
|
|
108
|
+
### Approval gates
|
|
109
|
+
|
|
110
|
+
- **Gate 1 (Proposal)** — Problem statement must be approved before plan.
|
|
111
|
+
- **Gate 2 (Plan)** — Spec + mandate + tasks must be approved before implement.
|
|
112
|
+
- **Gate 3 (Review)** — Review report must be approved before archive.
|
|
113
|
+
|
|
114
|
+
In `trust: "auto"` mode (default), gates auto-pass without risk signals. See `framework/MORPH.md` for risk-signal details.
|
|
115
|
+
|
|
116
|
+
Check gate status:
|
|
117
|
+
|
|
118
|
+
```bash
|
|
119
|
+
morph-spec approval-status {feature}
|
|
120
|
+
```
|
|
121
|

## Agent hierarchy
|
|
174
|
+
|
|
175
|
+
morph-spec includes 22 agents organized in 4 tiers (2+3+13+4). Tier 1-2 agents are installed as native Claude Code subagents in `.claude/agents/`. Tier 3 domain agents are installed as `.claude/agents/morph-domain-{name}.md`.

## Update
|
|
278
|
+
|
|
279
|
+
To update the framework files in an existing project:
|
|
280
|
+
|
|
281
|
+
```bash
|
|
282
|
+
morph-spec update
|
|
283
|
+
```
|
|
284
|
+
|
|
285
|
+
This re-syncs `.morph/framework/`, `.claude/skills/`, `.claude/agents/`, `.claude/rules/`, and `CLAUDE.md` with the installed package version. Your `.morph/config/config.json`, `.morph/context/`, and feature outputs are not touched.
|
|
286
|
+
|
|
287
|
+
After updating, run `morph-spec doctor` to confirm the installation is healthy.
|
|
288
|
+
|
|

|
|
290
|
+
|
|
291
|
+
## Key rules
|
|
292
|
+
|
|
293
|
+
**Never skip phases.** Every feature starts with a proposal. No code is written until the design is approved and a task list exists.
|
|
294
|
+
|
|
295
|
+
**Never edit protected files directly:**
|
|
296
|
+
|
|
297
|
+
- `.morph/state.json` — use `morph-spec state set`
|
|
298
|
+
- `.morph/framework/`** — read-only, updated by `morph-spec update`
|
|
299
|
+
|
|
300
|
+
**Always document decisions.** Each feature has a `2-design/decisions.md`. Architectural choices go there, not in commit messages.
|
|
301
|
+
|
|
302
|
+
**Checkpoints every 3 tasks.** The framework auto-validates architecture compliance, package versions, and security after every third completed task.
|

## Troubleshooting
|
|
307
|
+
|
|
308
|
+
### `morph-spec: command not found`
|
|
309
|
+
|
|
310
|
+
The installer automatically adds the npm global directory to your PowerShell `$PROFILE`. Open a **new terminal** after installing. If it still doesn't work, add it manually:
|
|
311
|
+
|
|
312
|
+
```bash
|
|
313
|
+
npm config get prefix
|
|
314
|
+
# Add {prefix} to your PATH
|
|
315
|
+
```
|
|
316
|
+
|
|
317
|
+
### `morph-spec doctor` reports issues
|
|
318
|
+
|
|
319
|
+
Run doctor to see all checks:
|
|
320
|
+
|
|
321
|
+
```bash
|
|
322
|
+
morph-spec doctor
|
|
323
|
+
```
|
|
324
|
+
|
|
325
|
+
Common fixes:
|
|
326
|
+
|
|
327
|
+
- **Missing `.claude/agents/`** — run `morph-spec update` to reinstall agents
|
|
328
|
+
- **Missing `.claude/rules/`** — run `morph-spec update` to reinstall rules
|
|
329
|
+
- **State version mismatch** — state auto-migrates on next CLI command; if it fails, back up and re-init
|
|
330
|
+
- **Hooks not firing** — confirm `.claude/settings.local.json` exists and contains the `hooks` key
|
|
331
|
+
|
|
332
|
+
### EPERM on Windows global install
|
|
333
|
+
|
|
334
|
+
Windows may block global npm installs without elevated permissions. Options:
|
|
335
|
+
|
|
336
|
+
1. Run terminal as Administrator (not recommended long-term)
|
|
337
|
+
2. Change npm global prefix to a user-writable directory:
|
|
338
|
+
|
|
339
|
+
```bat
|
|
340
|
+
mkdir %APPDATA%\npm-global
|
|
341
|
+
npm config set prefix %APPDATA%\npm-global
|
|
342
|
+
:: Add %APPDATA%\npm-global to your PATH
|
|
343
|
+
npm install -g @polymorphism-tech/morph-spec
|
|
344
|
+
```
|
|
345
|
+
|
|
346
|
+
1. Open a new terminal (the installer adds npm to your PATH automatically)
|
|
347
|
+
|
|
348
|
+
### Hook not triggering on SessionStart
|
|
349
|
+
|
|
350
|
+
Ensure `.claude/settings.local.json` is not gitignored in your project. The file must be present for Claude Code to load hooks. If it is missing, re-run `morph-spec setup-infra` or `morph-spec init --force`.

## Standards
|
|
355
|
+
|
|
356
|
+
The framework ships 82 registered standards across 11 categories, stored in `.morph/framework/standards/STANDARDS.json`. Standards are enforced via path-scoped rules installed to `.claude/rules/` during `morph-spec init`.
