EngineerKit

25 commands, 4 skills, and 4 read-only agents for professional software engineering with Claude Code — every command ends with evidence, never a bare "done".

EngineerKit is a full SDLC harness for Claude Code: planning, TDD, root-cause debugging, fresh-context reviews, security sweeps, and releases — where every command ends with evidence (test output, diffs, exit codes), never a bare "done".

Who it's for

Staff engineers, founding engineers, and platform teams who already live in Claude Code and want it to behave like a disciplined senior, not an eager intern. The kit's spine is the daily-8 loop/eng-catchup, /eng-plan, /eng-tdd, /eng-debug, /eng-verify, /eng-review, /eng-commit, /eng-handoff — the commands you actually run every day.

Shared context

The eng-context skill defines how the kit keeps memory across sessions: CLAUDE.md guardrails (grown by /eng-learn every time you correct a mistake), a docs/MAP.md codebase map built by /eng-onboard, and a .claude/handoff.md continuation file written by /eng-handoff so the next session picks up without re-explaining.

Commands

CommandWhat it does
/eng-catchupGet back up to speed after a /clear, a pull, or a day away — reads what changed so you don't re-explain.
/eng-commitCommit your staged work with a clean conventional message — refuses if tests fail or secrets are in the diff.
/eng-debugFind the actual root cause before touching code — evidence, ranked hypotheses, minimal fix, regression test.
/eng-docsSync README, API docs, and changelog with what the code actually does now — driven by the real diff.
/eng-fix-ciPull the failing CI logs, find the real failure, fix it, push, and watch until the checks go green.
/eng-fix-issueTake a GitHub issue from number to merged-ready PR: reproduce, fix at the root, test, ship.
/eng-handoffWrite a continuation file before you stop — the next session picks up without re-explaining.
/eng-hooksInterview you about what keeps going wrong, then install hooks that make it impossible — not just discouraged.
/eng-interviewGet interviewed about what you want to build until the requirements are nailed, then get a complete SPEC.md.
/eng-learnTurn a mistake or correction into a CLAUDE.md guardrail so it never happens twice — the compounding move.
/eng-migrateRun a mechanical migration safely: prove the transform on 2–3 files first, then fan out batch by verified batch.
/eng-onboardMap an unfamiliar codebase — stack, entry points, how to run it — into a docs/MAP.md you reuse every session.
/eng-planExplore the code, propose an approach with file list and risks — and wait for your go before touching anything.
/eng-pr-reviewReview someone else's PR: pull it, run it, structured findings with file:line — ready to paste or post.
/eng-refactorRestructure code safely — characterization tests first, one concern per step, suite green between every step.
/eng-releaseCut a release: version bump, changelog from merged PRs, tag, and publishable release notes — all verified.
/eng-reviewFresh-context review of your diff — flags only what would block a merge, with a confidence level per finding.
/eng-securitySecurity scan of your diff — injection, auth gaps, secrets, SSRF — each finding with severity and the fix.
/eng-shipCommit, push, and open a PR with a description generated from the actual diff — one command, branch to PR.
/eng-simplifyStrip the over-engineering out of a change — dead abstractions, premature generality, code that does nothing.
/eng-specTurn SPEC.md into phased, verifiable tasks — each phase ends with a check that proves it landed.
/eng-tddBuild a feature test-first: failing test shown red, minimal code to green, refactor only on green.
/eng-test-gapsFind the tests that can't fail and the cases nobody tests — silent failures, mock-heavy lies, missing edges.
/eng-verifyActually run it — tests, build, the app itself — and show the output proving the change works.
/eng-worktreeSpin up a git worktree with its own branch so a second task runs in parallel without touching this one.
/eng-debug "login redirects to /404 after the auth refactor"

Skills & agents

Skills: eng-context (session memory), eng-debugging (the root-cause protocol), eng-git (the commands that destroy work, worktree workflow), eng-testing (what makes a test trustworthy). Agents — all read-only: code-reviewer, explorer, security-auditor, test-auditor.
