Shipwright Pipeline
Overview
Shipwright converts a plain-English app description into a fully built, tested, and deployment-ready application. It delegates execution to product-agent, an autonomous 9-phase build engine available on PyPI.
Prerequisites
- Python 3.10+ available in PATH.
product-agentinstalled (pip install product-agent).- Node.js 18+ for JavaScript/TypeScript stacks.
Supported Stacks
- Next.js + Supabase — Full-stack with auth, database, and edge functions
- Next.js + Prisma — Full-stack with type-safe ORM
- SvelteKit — Lightweight full-stack with Svelte
- Astro — Content-focused static and hybrid sites
Instructions
- Gather the app description from the user. Ask clarifying questions if the description is vague.
- Confirm the target stack. If none specified, recommend based on the app type:
- Data-heavy with auth: Next.js + Supabase
- API-first with complex models: Next.js + Prisma
- Lightweight interactive: SvelteKit
- Content or marketing site: Astro
- Run
product-agentwith the app description and selected stack. - Monitor the 9-phase pipeline: Intake, Architecture, Scaffold, Implement, Test, Integrate, Polish, Validate, Ship.
- Report results to the user including test summary and any warnings.
Output
- A complete, buildable project directory with all source code, tests, and configuration.
- A test report summarizing pass/fail counts.
- Build verification output confirming the project compiles and starts.
Error Handling
- If
product-agentis not installed, prompt the user to install it withpip install product-agent. - If a phase fails, report the phase name, error message, and suggested fix.
- If the selected stack is not supported, list available stacks and ask the user to choose.
Examples
Build a SaaS dashboard:
/shipwright-build Build a real-time analytics dashboard with user auth, team workspaces, and Stripe billing. Use Next.js + Supabase.
Add features to an existing project:
/shipwright-enhance Add dark mode toggle, export-to-CSV on all tables, and email notification preferences.
Scaffold a content site:
/shipwright-build Create a developer documentation site with search, versioned docs, and a blog. Use Astro.
