## Workflow
### Phase 1: Project Setup and Configuration
To prepare the project for overnight development:
1. **Verify Prerequisites:** Ensure the project is a Git repository, has a configured test framework, and includes at least one passing test.
```bash
git init
npm install --save-dev jest # Example for Node.js
```
2. **Install the Plugin:** Add the Claude Code Plugin marketplace and install the `overnight-dev` plugin.
```bash
/plugin marketplace add jeremylongshore/claude-code-plugins
/plugin install overnight-dev@claude-code-plugins-plus
```
3. **Run Setup Command:** Execute the `/overnight-setup` command to create necessary Git hooks and configuration files.
```bash
/overnight-setup
```
### Phase 2: Task Definition and Planning
To define the task for the overnight session:
1. **Define a Clear Goal:** Specify a clear and testable goal for the overnight session, such as "Build user authentication with JWT (90% coverage)."
```text
Task: Build user authentication with JWT (90% coverage)
Success: All tests pass, 90%+ coverage, fully documented
```
2. **Start Coding:** Begin implementing the feature by writing tests first, following the TDD approach.
```javascript
// Example test case (Node.js with Jest)
it('should authenticate a user with valid credentials', async () => {
// Test implementation
});
```
3. **Attempt to Commit:** Try to commit the changes, which will trigger the Git hooks and run the tests.
```bash
git commit -m "feat: implement user authentication"
```
### Phase 3: Autonomous Development and Debugging
To allow Claude to work autonomously:
1. **Git Hooks Enforcement:** The Git hooks will block the commit if any tests fail, providing Claude with the error messages.
```text
Overnight Dev: Running pre-commit checks...
Running linting...
Linting passed
Running tests...
12 tests failing
Commit blocked!
```
2. **Automated Debugging:** Claude analyzes the error messages, identifies the issues, and attempts to fix the code.
```text
Claude: Fixing test failures in user authentication module.
```
3. **Retry Commits:** Claude retries the commit after making the necessary fixes, repeating the process until all tests pass.
```bash
git commit -m "fix: address test failures in user authentication"
```
### Phase 4: Progress Tracking and Completion
To monitor the progress and finalize the session:
1. **Monitor Progress:** Track the progress of the overnight session by viewing the log file.
```bash
cat .overnight-dev-log.txt
```
2. **Review Results:** Wake up to fully tested code, complete features, and a clean Git history.
```text
7 AM: You wake up to:
- 47 passing tests (0 failing)
- 94% test coverage
- Clean conventional commit history
- Fully documented JWT authentication
- Production-ready code
```
3. **Session Completion:** The session completes when all tests pass, the code meets the specified quality standards, and the changes are committed.No comments yet. Be the first to comment!
