New Commands
aiwg demo
Creates a complete demo project in `~/aiwg-demo/` with agents, commands, and sample artifacts ready to explore:
aiwg demo
cd ~/aiwg-demo
claude .
# "where are we?"
# "run security review"
aiwg doctor
Health check command that diagnoses installation issues:
aiwg doctor
# Checks: PATH, installation, permissions, dependencies
# Provides: Fix suggestions for any issues found
Workspace Maintenance
# Clean up .aiwg/working/ by promoting, archiving, or deleting stale files
/workspace-prune-working
# Sync documentation with codebase changes, archive completed plans
/workspace-realign
Improvements
MCP Server Auto-Discovery
The MCP server now auto-finds project root from any subdirectory by walking up the directory tree looking for `.aiwg/`. No more "project not found" errors when running from nested directories.
Team Directives Preservation
`/aiwg-regenerate-claude` now preserves content below `` marker. Your custom rules, conventions, and project-specific guidance survive regeneration.
@-Mention Traceability
Wired cross-references in 14 key files enabling agents to navigate from source code to tests to requirements to architecture documents via logical `@` paths.
Platform Fixes
Windows Support
- Replaced string concatenation with `path.join()` throughout
- Added Windows runner to GitHub Actions CI matrix
- All paths now work correctly on Windows
npm Discoverability
- Added 14 discoverable keywords (aiwg, agentic-ai, mcp-server, claude-skills, etc.)
- Clear, searchable description
- Install command front and center in README
