Software-Engineer-AI-Agent-Atlas

The senior-engineer layer for Claude Code. Explore before you build, clarify only what matters, capture it in living HTML, then hand it to Claude Code's native plan / goal / workflow loop. Fewer tokens, less ceremony, faster to the thing people actually pictured.

One command. Full setup. No copy-pasting prompts every session.

ATLAS is an open-source Claude Code template: a curated set of skills, subagents, slash commands, and engineering conventions that turn Claude Code into a production-grade AI software engineer, with a wireframe-and-prototype workflow in place of heavyweight spec-driven development.

It ships in three CLAUDE.md modes, so you choose how much of the wheel to hand over:

• Vanilla — minimal footprint, no ATLAS identity.
• Collaborative (default) — the full senior-engineer identity with a review-and-commit loop; you stay in the driver's seat.
• Autonomous — the approval loop removed and **free-will** wired in (alongside super-product-owner and super-ui-ux-design): the skill that lets ATLAS decide for itself on the high-stakes forks — hold real alternatives open, ground each in evidence, refute the winner, then log the call in docs/decision_logs/. That's what lets it one-shot an app and run unattended without going off the rails.
