Public walkthrough
Get started with the Sley public workflow
A practical first run for AI-native structured editing and token-efficient handoffs.
Step-by-step
- Read the public release boundary first, then open `/readme` and `/docs` for scope and constraints.
- Run a baseline posture check with `sley doctor --json .` and capture the context.
- Inspect the smallest relevant slice with `sley ast --json .` and `sley graph --json --slice <node-id> .`
- Draft edits with structure-first plans using `sley plan --json --graft-templates .`
- Dry-run repair candidates before write operations using `sley fix --json --kind <kind> --dry-run .`
- Promote only stable actions after `sley lint --json .` and `sley verify --json .`.
Sample intent sketch
language Sley:
project -> explicit_contract
intent -> bounded_plan
edit -> compiler_checked_mutation
authority -> declared_capability
verify -> deterministic_receipt
Hands-on walkthrough
# 1) Baseline checks
sley doctor --json .
# 2) Understand shape and flow
sley ast --json .
sley graph --json --slice <node-id> .
# 3) Build a bounded edit plan
sley plan --json --graft-templates .
# 4) Dry-run repairs and re-verify
sley fix --json --kind add_module_declaration --dry-run .
sley lint --json .
sley verify --json .
Next actions
Continue from the docs page and use OpenForge + release links as your anchor. This keeps public claims consistent while minimizing repeated context and overpromising.
