Command reference and project rules

This section provides reference documentation for Camel-Kit commands and project rules.

Command Reference

See Commands for the full reference. Summary of available commands:

Pipeline (3-phase flow):

  • /camel-brainstorm — Phase 1: Design interview → Design Specification
  • /camel-plan — Phase 2: Task decomposition → Implementation Plan
  • /camel-execute — Phase 3: Orchestrated code generation with two-stage review

Entry points:

  • /camel-flow — Greenfield shortcut into brainstorm
  • /camel-migrate — Migration shortcut into brainstorm

Autonomous:

  • /camel-ship — Autonomous pipeline (brainstorm → plan → execute → verify in one command)

Standalone:

  • /camel-verify — Runtime verification loop (build → start → test → fix)
  • /camel-validate — Route validation against catalog and constitution
  • /camel-knowledge — Apache Camel documentation queries via MCP

CLI:

  • camel-kit init — Initialize a new project
  • camel-kit graph — Property graph queries (14 subcommands)
  • camel-kit plan analyze — Wave analysis for parallel execution

Constitution (7 Rules)

Every generated route must comply with 7 architecture rules:

  1. Route Structure — every route has a source (from:) and a sink (final to:)
  2. Single Responsibility — one route = one purpose
  3. Separation of Concerns — business logic in beans, integration logic in routes
  4. Naming Conventions — route IDs: kebab-case, beans: camelCase
  5. Observability — every route declares routeId and description
  6. External Configuration — no hardcoded values, use {{placeholder}} syntax
  7. Component Verification — every component verified via MCP catalog

Iron Laws (4 Rules)

Non-negotiable rules enforced across all pipeline phases:

  1. MCP Catalog Verification — every component verified before use
  2. Constitution Compliance — every route passes all 7 rules
  3. No Code Without Spec Approval — no implementation before approved design
  4. Spec Compliance Before Quality — spec review first, then code quality review
