amplihack Expert Knowledge

What is amplihack?

Engineering system for coding CLIs (Claude, Copilot, Amplifier): 5 mechanisms, 23-step workflow, 30+ agents, 80+ skills. Core entry point: /dev <task> — unified task orchestrator with auto-classification, parallel workstream detection, and goal-seeking execution loop.

Quick Reference

Top Commands

Command Purpose Use When
/dev Orchestrate Any non-trivial task
/analyze Review Check compliance
/fix Fix errors Common error patterns
/amplihack:ddd:\* Doc-driven dev 10+ file features
/multitask Parallel tasks Sprint/batch work

Core Concepts

5 Mechanisms: Workflow (process), Command (entry), Skill (auto), Agent (delegate), Hook (runtime)

Composition: Commands → Workflows → Agents → Skills

Execution: /dev orchestrates — classifies task, detects parallel workstreams, executes via smart-orchestrator recipe, goal-seeking loop (3 rounds max)

Entry point: /dev <task> → dev-orchestrator skill → smart-orchestrator recipe → default-workflow recipe

dev-orchestrator Architecture

Entry point: /dev <task> or any non-trivial prompt

Routing:

  • Q&A → amplihack:core:analyzer responds directly
  • Operations → bash (simple) or amplihack:core:builder (complex)
  • Development/Investigation → smart-orchestrator recipe (full orchestration)

Execution flow:

  1. Classify task (architect agent → JSON decomposition)
  2. Detect workstreams (1 = single session, 2-5 = parallel via multitask)
  3. Register session in tree (depth/capacity enforcement)
  4. Execute rounds (up to 3, goal-seeking reflection loop)
  5. Summarize results with PR links and GOAL_STATUS

Session tree: Prevents infinite recursion

  • AMPLIHACKMAXDEPTH=3 (default) — increase to 5 for deep orchestration
  • AMPLIHACKMAXSESSIONS=10 (default) — max concurrent sessions per tree

Status signals:

  • GOAL_STATUS: ACHIEVED — all criteria met
  • GOAL_STATUS: PARTIAL -- [gaps] — another round will run
  • GOALSTATUS: NOTACHIEVED -- [reason] — final failure status
