<h1 align="center">ADD — Agent Driven Development</h1> <p align="center"> <strong>One dial scales the rigor. Trust your agents as much as your project has earned.</strong> <br> ADD is a methodology for AI-native software development built around a single control: the <strong>maturity ladder</strong> (poc → alpha → beta → ga). The ladder governs everything — how deep your specs go, whether TDD is enforced, how many agents run in parallel, which quality gates block. A throwaway prototype gets near-zero ceremony; production infrastructure gets exhaustive verification. You turn one dial; ADD cascades the rest. <br> <br> <em>AI agents write code fast. Without structure, they ship chaos.</em> ADD brings the structure — spec-driven, test-first, independently verified, human-validated — implemented as a Claude Code plugin (with a Codex CLI adapter). <br> <br> <a href="https://getadd.dev">Website</a> · <a href="#the-maturity-ladder--one-dial-for-the-trust-gradient">Maturity Ladder</a> · <a href="#install">Install</a> · <a href="#quick-start">Quick Start</a> · <a href="#coordinated-agent-teams">Agent Teams</a> · <a href="#human-in-the-loop">Human-in-the-Loop</a> · <a href="#for-product-managers">For PMs</a> · <a href="#cross-project-learning">Learning</a> <br> <br> <a href="https://github.com/MountainUnicorn/add/blob/main/LICENSE"><img src="https://img.shields.io/badge/license-MIT-blue.svg" alt="License: MIT"></a> <a href="#"><img src="https://img.shields.io/badge/version-0.9.7-brightgreen.svg" alt="Version"></a> <a href="#"><img src="https://img.shields.io/badge/Claude_Code-plugin-blueviolet.svg" alt="Claude Code Plugin"></a> </p>

The Maturity Ladder — one dial for the trust gradient

Autonomous agents need a trust gradient: how much you let them do should scale with how much your project has earned. ADD makes that gradient the master control. Every project declares a maturity level, and that level cascades to every process decision
