/dr-help

Overview

/dr-help displays the complete reference of all available Datarim commands: the pipeline flow, complexity routing table, command descriptions organized by category, agent roster, and usage tips. It is the go-to command when you need to know what is available or how the pipeline works.

Usage

/dr-help

What It Shows

1. Pipeline Flow — the complete stage sequence: init → prd → plan → design → do → qa → compliance → archive (archive runs reflection automatically as Step 0.5).
2. Commands by Category — all 18 commands organized into Pipeline (8), Content (2), Manage (3), Utility (3), and Standalone (2).
3. Complexity Routing — shows which stages each complexity level (L1 through L4) passes through, with optional stages marked.
4. Content Workflow — the alternative pipeline for writing tasks: write → edit → qa → archive.
5. Agent Roster — all 15 agents with their roles: planner, architect, developer, reviewer, compliance, code-simplifier, strategist, devops, writer, editor, skill-creator, optimizer, librarian, security, and SRE.
6. Backlog System — explains the two-file backlog (backlog.md for active items, backlog-archive.md for completed and cancelled).
7. Tips — practical advice for getting started and working efficiently.

Arguments

None.

Complexity Levels

• L1 (Quick Fix) — 1 file, minor change: init → do → archive
• L2 (Enhancement) — 2-5 files: init → [prd] → plan → do → [qa] → archive
• L3 (Feature) — 5-15 files: init → prd → plan → design → do → qa → [compliance] → archive
• L4 (Major) — 15+ files: init → prd → plan → design → phased-do → qa → compliance → archive

Stages in brackets are optional, included when the agent determines they add value.
