Create AIWG Extension

Create a new extension (framework expansion pack) with AI assistance.

Extensions enhance a specific parent framework with additional templates, checklists, and domain-specific content. They cannot operate standalone.

Usage

/devkit-create-extension <name> --for <framework> [--interactive]

Arguments

Argument	Required	Description
name	Yes	Extension name (kebab-case recommended)

Required Options

Option	Description
--for	Parent framework ID (e.g., sdlc-complete, media-marketing-kit)

Optional Options

Option	Description
--interactive	Enable interactive mode with guided questions

What This Creates

agentic/code/frameworks/<framework>/extensions/<name>/
├── manifest.json      # type: "extension", requires: ["<framework>"]
├── README.md          # Documentation
├── templates/         # Domain-specific templates
└── checklists/        # Compliance/verification checklists

Interactive Mode

When --interactive is specified, I will ask:

1. Domain: What compliance/domain does this extension address?
2. Purpose: What specific requirements or standards does it cover?
3. Templates: What templates should be included?
4. Checklists: What verification checklists are needed?
5. Dependencies: Does it depend on other extensions?

Examples

# Quick creation
/devkit-create-extension hipaa --for sdlc-complete

# Interactive guided creation
/devkit-create-extension sox --for sdlc-complete --interactive

Common Extension Types

Compliance Extensions

• gdpr - EU data protection
• hipaa - Healthcare (US)
• sox - Financial controls (US)
• pci-dss - Payment card security
• ftc - FTC advertising rules

Domain Extensions

• healthcare - Healthcare-specific templates
• fintech - Financial technology patterns
• government - Government/public sector

Execution

1. Validate inputs: Check name and framework
2. Verify framework exists: Ensure parent framework is installed
3. Check for duplicates: Verify extension doesn't exist
4. Gather info: In interactive mode, ask about domain and needs
5. Generate manifest: Create with requires field for parent
6. Create structure: Build templates/ and checklists/ directories
7. Generate README: Document extension purpose and usage
8. Optionally create content: Offer to create initial templates/checklists
9. Report success: Show created files and activation instructions
