EAI Gofer

EAI Gofer is a business specification-driven delivery workflow for repositories. It provides a shared 0-6 pipeline, repo-owned artifacts in .specify/, a VS Code extension, and portable plugin surfaces for Claude Code, Codex, GitHub Copilot, and Gemini.

Core Pipeline

Stage	Command	Purpose
Business Scenario	/0_business_scenario	Kick off the workflow, gather context, and route the work
Research	/1_gofer_research	Explore the codebase, constraints, and delivery options
Specify	/2_gofer_specify	Write the feature specification
Plan	/3_gofer_plan	Produce architecture, data model, and contracts
Tasks	/4_gofer_tasks	Break the work into dependency-ordered execution units
Implement	/5_gofer_implement	Make code and documentation changes
Validate	/6_gofer_validate	Run validation, blast-radius review, and final quality gates

Optional helpers:

• /0a_problem_validation
• /7_gofer_save
• /8_gofer_resume
• /9_gofer_tests
• /7a_stakeholder_comms
• /gofer:check-workspace
• /gofer:bootstrap-workspace

Install Surfaces

Surface	Recommended source
VS Code	Marketplace first, VSIX as fallback
Claude Code	eai-tools/eai-gofer GitHub marketplace
Codex	GitHub repo marketplace
GitHub Copilot CLI	GitHub repo marketplace
Gemini CLI	GitHub repo install with --auto-update

Model And Cost Policy

Bootstrap creates a user-owned model policy at .specify/memory/gofer-model-policy.yaml from the shipped .specify/templates/gofer-model-policy.yaml template. Edit the memory copy to tune simple, medium, hard, and arbiter routes across Claude, Codex/OpenAI, Gemini, and Copilot. Copilot uses Auto for simple/default work by default because exact model availability depends on client, plan, and organization policy.

Public Launch Notes

This documentation set is being cleaned up for a public launch. Community health files, GitHub Discussions, contributor routing, and public install paths are now first-class. Remaining legacy enterprise-profile internals are tracked separately as follow-up launch work.
