AI-Assisted Development

Feed AI tools with complete system context instead of isolated prompts

Use Case

Provide requirements and constraints to AI coding assistants like GitHub Copilot or Cursor

AI
Context
Development
# Sync project context
ellygent sync --project platform-api --version main

# AI tools now have access to:
# - .ellygent/requirements/*.md
# - .ellygent/capabilities/*.md
# - .ellygent/traceability.json
CI/CD Context Injection

Automatically download and validate engineering context in your build pipeline

Use Case

Ensure generated code aligns with approved requirements and architecture

CI/CD
Automation
Validation
# Set PAT in CI environment
export ELLYGENT_PAT=elly_pat_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

# Download context as JSON
ellygent sync \
  --project platform-api \
  --version main \
  --format json \
  --output context.json

# Validate against context in build
Selective Specification Export

Download only the specifications you need for a specific task

Use Case

Focus on safety requirements for regulatory review

Export
Requirements
Filtering
ellygent sync \
  --project safety-system \
  --version v2.1 \
  --spec functional_requirements \
  --spec safety_requirements \
  --include-traceability
Multi-Project Context Discovery

Explore and compare multiple projects across your organization

Use Case

Discover reusable components and patterns across projects

Discovery
Exploration
Reuse
# List all projects
ellygent projects --org acme-corp --format markdown

# Compare versions
ellygent versions --project platform-api

# View contents
