Need help deploying dev-km?
Chalk Labs sets up agents like this inside real teams: connected to your tools, tested on your data, with a human in the loop where it matters.
Install
Works with Claude Code, Claude apps, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot, VS Code, OpenCode, Goose, Windsurf. Read the repository before you give any tool access to your data.
npx agentmarket install skill/goffity-dev-km
Asks which of your tools to add it to (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Gemini CLI, Claude Desktop) and shows the change first. See https://agentmart.dev/cli.

# Development Knowledge Management System
4-layer system for capturing and organizing development knowledge.
## Dev Flow
```
/recap → /focus (issue + branch) → /tdd (red-green loop) + /commit → /td (retrospective) + /mem (capture knowledge)
```
## Core Skills (user-invocable)
| Skill | Layer | Output | Trigger |
|-------|-------|--------|---------|
| `/mem [topic]` | 1 | `kb/05-ai-reviewed/learnings/YYYY-MM/DD/HH.MM_slug.md` | Quick insight capture |
| `/distill [topic]` | 2 | `kb/02-patterns/<domain>/[topic].md` | 3+ learnings on same topic |
| `/td` | 3 | `kb/05-ai-reviewed/retrospective/YYYY-MM/retrospective_*.md` | Task completed |
| `/improve` | 4 | Implementation | Work on pending items |
| `/recap` | - | Context summary | Start new session |
| `/focus [task]` | - | Issue + branch | Set current task |
## Git & PR Skills (user-invocable)
| Skill | Purpose |
|-------|---------|
| `/commit` | Atomic commits (TDD-aware, self-contained) |
| `/pr` | Tests, build, review, create PR |
| `/review` | Code review before push |
| `/pr-review` | Handle PR review feedback (own PR) |
| `/pr-audit [pr#]` | Reviewer-side deep audit of an open PR (clone+build, inline+summary) |

| `/permission` | Manage Claude Code permissions |
## Specialist Skills (context: fork, not user-invocable)
| Skill | Purpose |
|-------|---------|
| `code-reviewer` | Reviews code for bugs, security, performance |
| `session-analyzer` | Analyzes git changes for retrospective drafts |
| `knowledge-curator` | Scans learnings, suggests distill topics |
| `build-validator` | Validates build, tests, lint before push |

```
> `kb/` = symlink to the Obsidian vault. Legacy `docs/{learnings,knowledge-base,retrospective,...}` paths are deprecated.
## Setup
```bash
./scripts/init.sh $PROJECT_ROOT
```
## Language Support
Output language is configured via `LANGUAGE` field in `docs/current.md`.
| Value | Behavior |
|-------|----------|
| `en` (default) | All generated output in English |
| `th` | Generated output in Thai (commit messages stay English) |
Set during `/focus` or manually edit `docs/current.md`. See `references/language-guide.md` for translation reference.
