Athenode: spec-driven development platform for AI coding agents
A web app where teams grow a tree of specifications (mind map, decompose, apply) and install the workflow into Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor, so agents implement one leaf spec at a time with recorded decisions.
Why it matters
It moves the thinking layer out of throwaway prompts into a shared, searchable spec tree with dependencies and statuses, so agents build from defined tasks and teams share one setup across tools.
What you could build with it
A startup team could keep its whole product spec in Athenode, break features into leaf specs with dependencies, and let each member's coding agent implement them in build order, with every question and answer recorded in one place.
Does it hold up?
Too early to judge — site, docs, and pricing (free to $37/month) are live, but no independent reviews or usage reports yet.
