# Mach 10

A development methodology for agentic coding -- and a Claude Code plugin that implements it.

## What is Mach 10?

In agentic coding, the AI is not an autocomplete engine -- it is an active collaborator that writes code, reviews it, manages GitHub issues and PRs, runs tests, and documents its work. The human's role shifts from writing code to directing, aligning, and reviewing. You describe requirements, approve architectural decisions, and steer direction. The AI handles the searching, writing, testing, and bookkeeping.

This changes the failure mode. The bottleneck is no longer typing speed or syntax recall -- it is context management. LLM context windows are finite. A deep code review can consume most of the available context, leaving little room for implementation. Multi-session feature development requires persistent memory across sessions. And without a structured workflow, agentic coding produces inconsistent results: missed edge cases, orphaned TODOs, reviews that never converge.

Mach 10 is a methodology that addresses these constraints directly: fresh sessions for each step, GitHub as persistent memory, staged implementation, and iterative review-fix cycles. This repository contains a Claude Code plugin that codifies the methodology into 14 slash commands, but the methodology stands on its own -- you can follow it manually with any agentic coding tool.

Because the methodology builds entirely on standard developer practices -- issues, PRs, comments, feature branches, frequent commits -- there is no vendor lock-in. Every artifact Mach 10 produces is a normal GitHub artifact. If you stop using the plugin, you're left with well-documented issues, structured PRs, and a clean commit history. Nothing is stored in a proprietary format or locked behind a tool-specific layer.
