AI-Powered Project Management Framework for Claude Code

ClaudeAutoPM transforms your development workflow with intelligent automation, specialized AI agents via a plugin system, and complete GitHub/Azure DevOps integration. Install only what you need — pay only for the tokens you use.

Quick Install

npm install -g claude-autopm
cd your-project
autopm install

Choose your scenario during installation:

Scenario	Agents	Use case
Lite	7 core	Minimal token footprint
GitHub	12	Core + languages for GitHub projects
Azure	14	Core + languages + Azure DevOps
Docker	16	Core + DevOps + containers
Obsidian	12	PM + Obsidian vault integration
Full	44+	All plugins, all agents
Performance	44+	Full + max parallelization

Architecture

Plugin-Based Agent System

ClaudeAutoPM uses a plugin architecture for token efficiency. Only 7 core agents are loaded by default. Specialized agents are installed on demand via plugins.

autopm/.claude/agents/       ← 7 core agents (always available)
packages/plugin-*/agents/    ← 37+ specialized agents (per plugin)

Token savings: Lite installs use 73% fewer agent tokens vs full.

XML Rules Engine

7 critical rules auto-loaded via @include in XML format:

Rule	Enforcement
`tdd.enforcement.xml`	Zero-tolerance TDD cycle
`coverage-thresholds.xml`	80/75/80/80 coverage gates
`agent-mandatory.xml`	Agent delegation + context strategy
`context7.xml`	Context7 MCP before any library code
`github-operations.xml`	Repo protection + mandatory issue footer
`naming-conventions.xml`	Naming prohibitions + code quality
`command-pipelines.xml`	5 mandatory command sequences

3 MD operational guides: standard-patterns.md, frontmatter-operations.md, git-strategy.md

Dynamic Agent Registry

agent-registry.xml is generated at install time based on selected plugins:

<!-- Core agents (always present) -->
<agents category="core">
  <agent name="code-analyzer">...</agent>
  <agent name="test-runner">...</agent>
  ...
</agents>

<!-- Plugin agents (injected by installer) -->
<!-- PLUGIN_AGENTS_START -->
<agents category="languages">...</agents>
<agents category="frameworks">...</agents>
<!-- PLUGIN_AGENTS_END -->

Core Agents (Always Available)

Agent	Purpose
`agent-manager`	Agent lifecycle, registry maintenance
`code-analyzer`	Code analysis, bug detection, logic tracing
`test-runner`	Test execution with actionable insights
`file-analyzer`	Summarize large files, reduce context
`parallel-worker`	Multi-agent parallel work streams
`mcp-manager`	MCP server install, config, health
`context-optimizer`	Context window efficiency, compaction

Plugin Agents

Plugin	Agents	Examples
plugin-languages	5	python-backend-engineer, nodejs-backend-engineer, bash-scripting-expert
plugin-frameworks	6	react-frontend-engineer, tailwindcss-expert, e2e-test-engineer
plugin-cloud	8	aws-cloud-architect, kubernetes-orchestrator, terraform-expert
plugin-devops	7	docker-expert, github-operations-specialist, observability-engineer
plugin-databases	5	postgresql-expert, mongodb-expert, redis-expert
plugin-ai	8	openai-python-expert, gemini-api-expert, langchain-expert
plugin-data	3	airflow-orchestration-expert, kedro-pipeline-expert
plugin-testing	2	frontend-testing-engineer, e2e specialists
plugin-ml	2	ML workflow agents
plugin-pm	—	29 PM commands (PRD, epic, issue management)

Quick Start

All commands run inside Claude Code (not terminal):

# Initialize context and testing
/context:create
/testing:prime

# PM workflow
/pm:issue-start 42
/pm:issue-finish 42

# Working with agents
@python-backend-engineer Build FastAPI endpoint
@test-runner execute all tests
@code-analyzer review recent changes
