Agent safety v2
Sparse or mixed signals. Useful for discovery, but not for autonomous installation.
Test manually in an isolated workspace and compare against safer alternatives.
high
Skill metadata references terminal, CLI, shell, subprocess, or command execution workflows.
medium
Skill likely fetches remote pages, APIs, repositories, or external services.
medium
Skill may read or write project files, documents, generated artifacts, or local workspace state.
Install targets
Copy the registry command or an agent-specific install prompt for Codex, Claude Code, and Cursor.
Use the registry command when your workflow supports the OpenAgentSkill installer.

<h1>SDLC Studio</h1>
**The antidote to vibe coding: a full software engineering team at your fingertips.**
Ask for software in plain language. The team plans it, builds it, tests it, and proves it is done.
**Version 4.1.0**
[](LICENSE) [](https://github.com/DarrenBenson/sdlc-studio/actions/workflows/lint.yml) [](https://agentskills.io)
</div>
SDLC Studio is an open [Agent Skill](https://agentskills.io) - a plug-in for AI coding tools - that runs your whole software development lifecycle (SDLC), from first idea to tested, working code. You describe what you want in plain language; the agent does the work, and you review and approve each step. It follows the proven path a real team uses - clear requirements, a plan, build, test, review - and keeps every document in step with the code that was actually built.
**Who it is for:** product managers scoping work, engineers building it, QA proving it, eng leads keeping it honest - and non-technical founders who want a fully-equipped engineering team without running the process by hand.
One install works in **Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Gemini CLI, opencode, and GitHub Copilot**.
## Quick start
**Step 0 - install** (macOS / Linux, Claude Code, globally):
```bash curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DarrenBenson/sdlc-studio/main/install.sh | bash ```
> New to the command line? You only do this once. Hand that one line to any developer, or follow [docs/INSTALL.md](docs/INSTALL.md) step by step.

Most coding agents don't fail from lack of model power. They fail when repo context disappears. Sdlc Studio gives coding agents a repeatable way to plan, patch, review, or ship. 18 stars https://www.openagentskill.com/skills/darrenbenson-sdlc-studio?ref=x #AIAgents
