SpecPulse works seamlessly with AI assistants while maintaining **privacy-first design** (no external API calls).

### Supported AI Platforms

- **Claude Code** - Custom slash commands
- **Gemini CLI** - Custom commands

### Using with Claude Code

```bash
# In Claude Code terminal:
/sp-pulse user-authentication          # Initialize feature
/sp-spec OAuth2 with JWT               # Create specification
/sp-plan generate                      # Generate implementation plan
/sp-task breakdown                     # Break into tasks
```

### How It Works

1. **Specification First**: Create validated specs before coding
2. **AI Expansion**: LLM expands templates with detailed content
3. **Validation**: Automatic checks ensure quality
4. **Tracking**: Progress monitoring throughout development
5. **Privacy**: All processing happens locally
