Arness — H not required.

**Structured AI workflows for Claude Code. From first idea to production deploy.**

Seven entry commands. That's all you need to remember. Behind them, 138 specialist skills and agents handle the details across three independent plugins — ideation, development, and infrastructure.

Most AI coding tools help you write code faster. Arness helps you build software better. It gives your Claude Code session a structured pipeline: specs before code, plans before execution, reviews before shipping. Every stage produces a human-readable artifact that feeds the next. Nothing is hidden, nothing is locked in.

Three Plugins, One Lifecycle

Arness Spark — Where ideas come alive


Most projects fail before the first commit — wrong problem, wrong audience, wrong architecture. Spark takes a raw idea and puts it through product discovery, stress testing, brand naming, use case writing, architecture evaluation, and interactive prototyping. By the time you write real code, you have a validated concept, a prioritized feature backlog, and a scaffolded codebase ready for development.

Arness Code — Where products get built


The development pipeline that treats AI-assisted coding like engineering, not guesswork. Every feature flows through spec, plan, structure, execute, review, and ship — with three ceremony tiers (swift, standard, thorough) that scale process to match scope. A one-file fix gets a lightweight pass. A cross-cutting refactor gets phases, task dependencies, and quality gates.
