First time here?
Do the 10-minute tutorial once first. It includes a paste-ready example.
Normal work (a fix or a feature)
bash
sdd doctor # optional: is my setup ok?
sdd new "Short title of the work" -y
sdd status # where am I? (never opens the AI)
# Open the file path sdd printed. Write a few real sentences.
# Or let the AI draft them if it opened.
sdd next # move to the next step when ready
# … repeat sdd next as stages complete …
sdd verify # when you’re on the verify step
sdd complete # mark this work doneFrom a product backlog after greenfield:
bash
sdd feature list
sdd feature start F-001
# then the same next → verify → complete loopNew product (once)
bash
sdd greenfield "One sentence product idea"
# fill vision → sdd next → requirements → features → architecture
sdd complete
sdd feature list
sdd feature start F-001Details: Greenfield guide.
Several things at once
bash
sdd status --list # see open work
sdd checkout <change-id> # switch which one is activeEscape hatches
bash
sdd skip design -r "not needed for this small change"
sdd use feature -r "this grew bigger than a hotfix"
sdd next --force # rare: skip checks (use carefully)
sdd next --no-agent # move stages without launching AI
