Agentic Substrate v4.1
Research-first development system for Claude Code CLI
No API hallucinations. No coding from stale training data. Research → Plan → Implement.
Quick Start
# Install
git clone https://github.com/VAMFI/claude-user-memory.git
cd claude-user-memory
./install.sh
# Use
/workflow Add Redis caching to ProductService
What You Get
- 9 Agents - Orchestration, research, planning, implementation, debugging, deployment
- 5 Skills - Auto-invoked capabilities for research, planning, validation, patterns, context
- 5 Commands -
/workflow,/research,/plan,/implement,/context - Quality Gates - Research ≥80, Plans ≥85, Tests passing, 3-retry circuit breaker
- Memory - Knowledge graph persists across sessions
Usage
Full automation:
/workflow Add authentication with JWT tokens
Step-by-step:
/research Redis for Node.js v5.0
/plan Redis caching implementation
/implement
Direct agents:
@chief-architect Build payment system
@docs-researcher Research Stripe API
@brahma-deployer Deploy v2.5.0
How It Works
- Research (< 2 min) - Fetch version-accurate docs before coding
- Plan (< 3 min) - Create minimal-change blueprint with rollback
- Implement (< 10 min) - Execute with TDD + self-correction
- Learn - Auto-capture patterns to knowledge graph
Quality gates block bad inputs. Circuit breaker stops infinite loops.
Installation
Cross-Platform: Works on macOS, Linux, Windows (WSL), and most Unix systems
Requirements: Minimal - bash and git only. Optional: python3/python for enhanced features
Installs to: ~/.claude/
