build-dark-factory

Take a PRD and build a dark factory around it - a repository that takes work in as an issue and ships validated code out with nobody at the keyboard - one component at a time, into the user's actual repo. Covers the five components in construction order - the guidance layer, the validation harness, the workflow-driven repo, deployment, and the trigger that makes it autonomous - and is agnostic about which coding agent runs underneath (Claude Code, Codex, Archon, the Agent SDK, Cline, Goose, Amp, Pi). It encodes the AI coding process the user already runs rather than replacing it. Requires a PRD as input and deliberately does not write one. Use when the user wants to build a dark factory, an autonomous or self-driving repository, a software factory, an agent that ships its own code, an unattended or overnight coding loop, or asks how to get to level 4 or level 5 of AI coding autonomy; and when they mention dark factory, lights-out coding, autonomous PRs, or a repo that maintains itself.
