specfuse 0.3.1

Specfuse umbrella CLI — bridges the pip-installed driver and the Claude Code plugin (init / upgrade).

Specfuse — Claude Code plugin marketplace

This repository is the Claude Code plugin marketplace for the Specfuse gate-cycle methodology. It is the shared distribution home so the loop today — and the orchestrator and future products later — install their Claude assets from one place.

Install

/plugin marketplace add specfuse/specfuse
/plugin install specfuse@specfuse

That installs the specfuse plugin: the methodology's interactive skills, namespaced under /specfuse: (e.g. /specfuse:pick-feature, /specfuse:draft-feature, /specfuse:arm-gate). Update with /plugin update specfuse@specfuse; reload after changes with /reload-plugins.

The skills drive the specfuse-loop driver — install it with the umbrella package below (pip install specfuse pulls it), or on its own with pip install specfuse-loop. See specfuse/loop for the methodology, the driver, and getting-started docs.

The specfuse umbrella CLI

This repo also ships the specfuse pip package — the umbrella CLI that bridges the pip-installed driver and this plugin:

pipx install specfuse                                # driver only; gives specfuse / specfuse-loop / specfuse-lint
pipx install --include-deps 'specfuse[orchestrator]' # + the multi-repo orchestrator
pipx install --include-deps 'specfuse[authoring]'    # + the spec-authoring kit
pipx install --include-deps 'specfuse[all]'          # the whole suite in one command
specfuse init <repo>          # scaffold .specfuse/ + wire .claude/ (--dry-run previews)
specfuse upgrade <repo>       # overlay a newer scaffold, then pip-upgrade driver + CLI, point at /plugin update

--include-deps is required for the extras' CLIs. pipx only exposes the main package's own console scripts; the orchestrator/authoring commands (specfuse-orchestrator, specfuse-poller, specfuse-authoring, …) live in the extra packages, so --include-deps is what surfaces them on PATH. Without it the extra is installed but its commands aren't linked.

Quote the brackets — zsh globs them ('specfuse[all]'). And extras are only re-resolved on a fresh install — to add one to an existing install use pipx install --force --include-deps 'specfuse[all]'; pipx upgrade alone won't pull a newly-added extra.

A bare pip install into a system Python is blocked on PEP-668 externally-managed environments (Debian/Ubuntu, Homebrew). Use pipx (then pipx upgrade specfuse) or a virtualenv, so specfuse-loop / specfuse-lint land on PATH for the gate commands to find.

specfuse init lays down .specfuse/ (templates, rules, docs, verification.yml) and merge-safely wires .claude/ (including this plugin's config) — pip-native scaffolding via specfuse.loop.scaffold, no init.sh checkout required. Every specfuse-loop run also self-provisions (version-syncs .specfuse/ from the installed package), so pip install -U specfuse reaches existing projects on their next run. specfuse contributes to the shared specfuse.* import namespace (so specfuse.loop from the driver and a future specfuse.orchestrator coexist).

How the plugins are sourced (contributors)

Edit a plugin in its origin repo, never here. Each plugin's canonical source lives in its own repo at plugins/<name>/ (for the loop, .specfuse/skills/ is vendored from plugins/specfuse/skills/ for its dogfood — the plugin dir is still the source). The copies under plugins/ in this repo are generated output, produced by specfuse/publish.py.

• Publish on release. When a source repo publishes its package to PyPI, its release workflow dispatches to this repo; the publish step regenerates that plugin from the source at tag v<version>, stamps plugin.json.version to the released version (plugin@X == package@X == tag vX), and opens a PR only if the plugin changed.
• Drift-guard. The plugin-drift-guard CI (required check) re-derives every managed plugin from its source at the pinned tag and fails on any diff — so a hand-edit, a bad merge, or an agent's "quick fix" cannot land in plugins/. The only way in is a faithful publish.
• Manual publish (testing / backfill): the plugin-publish workflow's workflow_dispatch (plugin, version) runs the same path by hand.

See docs/plan-unify-plugin-sourcing.md for the full design. Skills reach a target repo through the installed plugin (under the /specfuse: etc. namespaces), not by copying files into the repo.
