JDS is a GitHub Copilot CLI plugin that enforces a structured software development workflow for AI coding assistants, requiring design before code, tests before implementation, and evidence-based verification. It leverages a skill-based pipeline to keep AI agents disciplined and context-aware, integrating task visualization and isolated subagents for complex tasks. This project is interesting because it addresses a key limitation of current AI coding tools by imposing engineering rigor and process, potentially turning them into reliable pair programmers.

Target audience: backend devs, devops, software engineers
