/knowzcode:setup
The setup command bootstraps the KnowzCode framework in any project. It creates the necessary directory structure (specs, workgroups, tracker), generates initial architecture documentation from your codebase, and configures the framework for your tech stack and selected AI platforms.
Getting started
Run /knowzcode:setup in your project root. The command analyzes your project structure, identifies your tech stack, and creates: a knowzcode/ directory with specs/ and workgroups/ subdirectories, a knowzcode_tracker.md for status tracking, initial architecture documentation, and the platform-specific adapter files your team needs. The setup is non-destructive -- it will not overwrite existing files without confirmation.

What gets created
The setup command produces files tailored to your project. For a .NET project, it configures xUnit test patterns and EF Core conventions. For a Node.js project, it sets up Jest or Vitest patterns. For a monorepo, it maps the workspace structure. It also generates the right adapter surface for Codex, Claude Code, Gemini, Cursor, Copilot, or Windsurf so every team member gets the same framework configuration.
