Core Principles and Features

Principles¶

• Canonical command contract: stable top-level verbs (setup, fmt, lint, build, test, check, release, ci).

• Selector precision: scoped behavior with primary:selector (test:unit, check:pr).

• Config as policy: target profiles live in devflow.toml, not duplicated shell/YAML snippets.

• Reproducibility first: workflow intent is explicit and machine-validated.

• Complement, not replacement: Devflow standardizes command intent and orchestration; your existing Makefile/justfile can still own stack-specific internals.

Feature Summary¶

• dynamic target profiles (pr, main, staging, etc.)

• strict config validation (unknown keys fail)

• extension capability checks before execution

• CI workflow generation (ci:generate) and topology validation (ci:check)

• stack-aware command execution (currently Rust and Node)

• custom stack delegation to just/make targets for new ecosystems (for example Kotlin)
