Quick Start

1. Install

pip install attune-ai[developer]

2. Configure

# Auto-detect API keys
python -m attune.models.cli provider

# Or set explicitly
python -m attune.models.cli provider --set anthropic

3. Use

In Claude Code:

/dev           # Developer tools (debug, commit, PR, review)
/testing       # Run tests, coverage, benchmarks
/workflows     # Automated analysis (security, bugs, perf)
/plan          # Planning, TDD, code review
/docs          # Documentation generation
/release       # Release preparation

# Natural language support:
/workflows "find security issues"
/plan "review my code"

# Direct tool access via MCP (v5.1.1+):
# Claude Code automatically discovers Attune AI tools through the MCP server
# Just describe what you need in natural language:
"Run a security audit on src/"          → Invokes security_audit tool
"Generate tests for config.py"          → Invokes test_generation tool
"Check my auth configuration"           → Invokes auth_status tool
"Analyze performance bottlenecks"       → Invokes performance_audit tool

MCP Server Integration (v5.1.1+):

Attune AI now includes a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that exposes all workflows as native Claude Code tools:

• 10 Tools Available: security_audit, bug_predict, code_review, test_generation, performance_audit, release_prep, auth_status, auth_recommend, telemetry_stats, dashboard_status
• Automatic Discovery: No manual configuration needed - Claude Code finds tools via .claude/mcp.json
• Natural Language Access: Describe your need and Claude invokes the appropriate tool
• Verification Hooks: Automatic validation of Python/JSON files and workflow outputs

To verify MCP integration:

# Check server is running
echo '{"method":"tools/list","params":{}}' | PYTHONPATH=./src python -m attune.mcp.server

# Restart Claude Code to load the MCP server
# Tools will appear in Claude's tool list automatically

See .claude/MCP_TEST_RESULTS.md for full integration details.

CLI:

attune workflow run security-audit --path ./src
attune workflow run test-coverage --target 90
attune telemetry show  # View cost savings

Python:

from attune import EmpathyOS

async with EmpathyOS() as attune:
    result = await attune.level_2_guided(
        "Review this code for security issues"
    )
    print(result["response"])

Command Hubs

Workflows are organized into hubs for easy discovery:

Hub	Command	Description
Developer	/dev	Debug, commit, PR, code review, quality
Testing	/testing	Run tests, coverage analysis, benchmarks
Documentation	/docs	Generate and manage documentation
Release	/release	Release prep, security scan, publishing
Workflows	/workflows	Automated analysis (security, bugs, perf)
Plan	/plan	Planning, TDD, code review, refactoring
Utilities	/utilities	Project init, dependencies, profiling
Learning	/learning	Pattern learning and session evaluation
Context	/context	State management and memory
Agent	/agent	Create and manage custom agents

Natural Language Support:

# Use plain English - intelligent routing matches your intent
/workflows "find security vulnerabilities"  # → security-audit
/workflows "check code performance"         # → perf-audit
/workflows "predict bugs"                   # → bug-predict
/plan "review my code"                      # → code-review
/plan "help me plan this feature"           # → planning

# Or use traditional workflow names
/workflows security-audit
/plan code-review

Interactive menus:

/dev                    # Show interactive menu
/dev "debug auth error" # Jump directly to debugging
/testing "run coverage" # Run coverage analysis
/release                # Start release preparation

---

Socratic Method

Workflows guide you through discovery instead of requiring upfront configuration:

You: /dev

Claude: What development task do you need?
  1. Debug issue
  2. Create commit
  3. PR workflow
  4. Quality check

You: 1

Claude: What error or unexpected behavior are you seeing?

How it works:

1. Discovery - Workflow asks targeted questions to understand your needs
2. Context gathering - Collects relevant code, errors, and constraints
3. Dynamic agent creation - Assembles the right team based on your answers
4. Execution - Runs with appropriate tier selection

Create custom agents with Socratic guidance:

/agent create    # Guided agent creation
/agent team      # Build multi-agent teams interactively

---

Cost Optimization

Skills = $0 (Claude Code)

When using Claude Code, workflows run as skills through the Task tool - no API costs:

/dev           # $0 - uses your Claude subscription
/testing       # $0
/release       # $0
/agent create  # $0

API Mode (CI/CD, Automation)

For programmatic use, smart tier routing saves 34-86%:

Tier	Model	Use Case	Cost
CHEAP	Haiku / GPT-4o-mini	Formatting, simple tasks	~$0.005
CAPABLE	Sonnet / GPT-4o	Bug fixes, code review	~$0.08
PREMIUM	Opus / o1	Architecture, complex design	~$0.45

# Track API usage and savings
attune telemetry savings --days 30

Key Features

Multi-Agent Workflows

# 4 parallel agents check release readiness
attune orchestrate release-prep

# Sequential coverage improvement
attune orchestrate test-coverage --target 90

Response Caching

Up to 57% cache hit rate on similar prompts. Zero config needed.

from attune.workflows import SecurityAuditWorkflow

workflow = SecurityAuditWorkflow(enable_cache=True)
result = await workflow.execute(target_path="./src")
print(f"Cache hit rate: {result.cost_report.cache_hit_rate:.1f}%")

Pattern Learning

Workflows learn from outcomes and improve over time:

from attune.orchestration.config_store import ConfigurationStore

store = ConfigurationStore()
best = store.get_best_for_task("release_prep")
print(f"Success rate: {best.success_rate:.1%}")

    AnthropicProvider,  # Claude
    OpenAIProvider,     # GPT-4
    GeminiProvider,     # Gemini
    LocalProvider,      # Ollama, LM Studio
