What This Creates

agentic/code/frameworks/<framework>/extensions/<name>/
├── manifest.json      # type: "extension", requires: ["<framework>"]
├── README.md          # Documentation
├── templates/         # Domain-specific templates
└── checklists/        # Compliance/verification checklists

Interactive Mode

When --interactive is specified, I will ask:

Domain: What compliance/domain does this extension address?
Purpose: What specific requirements or standards does it cover?
Templates: What templates should be included?
Checklists: What verification checklists are needed?
Dependencies: Does it depend on other extensions?

Examples

# Quick creation
/devkit-create-extension hipaa --for sdlc-complete

/devkit-create-extension sox --for sdlc-complete --interactive

Create structure: Build templates/ and checklists/ directories
Generate README: Document extension purpose and usage
Optionally create content: Offer to create initial templates/checklists
