Phase 1: Project Setup and Configuration

To prepare the project for overnight development:

1. Verify Prerequisites: Ensure the project is a Git repository, has a configured test framework, and includes at least one passing test.

   git init
   npm install --save-dev jest # Example for Node.js
   

2. Install the Plugin: Add the Claude Code Plugin marketplace and install the overnight-dev plugin.

   /plugin marketplace add jeremylongshore/claude-code-plugins
   /plugin install overnight-dev@claude-code-plugins-plus
   

3. Run Setup Command: Execute the /overnight-setup command to create necessary Git hooks and configuration files.

   /overnight-setup
   

Phase 2: Task Definition and Planning

To define the task for the overnight session:

1. Define a Clear Goal: Specify a clear and testable goal for the overnight session, such as "Build user authentication with JWT (90% coverage)."

   Task: Build user authentication with JWT (90% coverage)
   Success: All tests pass, 90%+ coverage, fully documented
   

2. Start Coding: Begin implementing the feature by writing tests first, following the TDD approach.

   // Example test case (Node.js with Jest)
   it('should authenticate a user with valid credentials', async () => {
     // Test implementation
   });
   

3. Attempt to Commit: Try to commit the changes, which will trigger the Git hooks and run the tests.

   git commit -m "feat: implement user authentication"
   

Phase 3: Autonomous Development and Debugging

To allow Claude to work autonomously:

1. Git Hooks Enforcement: The Git hooks will block the commit if any tests fail, providing Claude with the error messages.

   Overnight Dev: Running pre-commit checks...
   Running linting...
   Linting passed
   Running tests...
   12 tests failing
   Commit blocked!
   

2. Automated Debugging: Claude analyzes the error messages, identifies the issues, and attempts to fix the code.

   Claude: Fixing test failures in user authentication module.
   

3. Retry Commits: Claude retries the commit after making the necessary fixes, repeating the process until all tests pass.

   git commit -m "fix: address test failures in user authentication"
   

Phase 4: Progress Tracking and Completion

To monitor the progress and finalize the session:

1. Monitor Progress: Track the progress of the overnight session by viewing the log file.

   cat .overnight-dev-log.txt
   

2. Review Results: Wake up to fully tested code, complete features, and a clean Git history.

   7 AM: You wake up to:
   - 47 passing tests (0 failing)
   - 94% test coverage
   - Clean conventional commit history
   - Fully documented JWT authentication
   - Production-ready code
   

3. Session Completion: The session completes when all tests pass, the code meets the specified quality standards, and the changes are committed.
