# llms.txt - AI Agent Discovery File # This file helps AI agents and language models discover and understand intent-driven.dev # Site Overview intent-driven.dev is the home of Intent-Driven Development (IDD): structuring intent and context so AI coding agents build the right thing. IDD is the umbrella practice spanning context engineering, spec-driven development (SDD), harness engineering, and Ralph Loops. We provide knowledge, tools, workflows, and best practices for building software with AI agents using these intent-first approaches. # Full Content For the complete inlined text of the knowledge hub pages and blog posts (not just links), see the full-content variant: https://intent-driven.dev/llms-full.txt # Knowledge Hub Comprehensive guides on spec-driven development concepts, tools, and workflows.
