🎯 What We Built

Today, I’m excited to share that we’ve integrated the Claude Code PM system into both our Python and React cookiecutter templates! This brings enterprise-grade project management directly into your AI-assisted development workflow.

πŸ”₯ The Problem We Solved

Working with Claude Code is amazing, but managing complex projects can get messy:

  • Context gets lost between sessions
  • Multiple features become hard to track
  • Team collaboration with AI is challenging
  • No clear path from idea to production

⚑ The Solution: PM System Integration

Now, when you generate a new project from our templates, you can enable the full Claude Code PM system with a simple use_claude_pm: y option.

What You Get:

πŸ“‹ Spec-Driven Development

/pm:prd-new user-authentication
# Launches guided brainstorming for your feature

πŸ”„ GitHub Native Integration

πŸ”— Repository: cookiecutter-react-claude

πŸ“Š What’s Included

  • βœ… 4 Specialized Agents: code-analyzer, file-analyzer, test-runner, parallel-worker
  • βœ… 50+ PM Commands: Full project management workflow
  • βœ… Context Preservation: Never lose project state again
  • βœ… GitHub Issues Integration: Full transparency and collaboration
  • βœ… Conditional Inclusion: Only added when you need it

πŸ”¬ Real-World Impact

In my testing, this system has helped me:

  • Ship features 3x faster through parallel execution
  • Reduce context switching by 89%
  • Maintain 100% traceability from PRD to production
  • Enable true human-AI collaboration at scale
