home Compound Engineering / Skills for your coding agent that make each unit of engineering work easier than the last.
text tagline actions
Each unit of work should make the next one easier. Compound Engineering is a set of skills for the coding agent you already use. Plan, work, review, then compound. What you learn gets written down where the next run will read it.

Terminal recording of the compound engineering loop running in a coding agent: plan, work, review, compound

A learning gets captured after a fix. Eighteen days later a plan for a different feature reads it back before writing a line.

Install

In Claude Code, two commands. Other hosts are on the install page.

/plugin marketplace add EveryInc/compound-engineering-plugin
/plugin install compound-engineering
{% include ce/hosts.html %}

Current release v{{ site.data.ce.version }}

The loop

Most of the thinking happens before and after the code is written. The last step is the one that pays off next time.

  1. PlanDecide what to build and why before any code exists.
  2. WorkBuild it from the plan, with tests and review gates along the way.
  3. ReviewCheck the change against the plan and the repo's standards.
  4. CompoundWrite down what was learned so the next run starts further ahead.
