Hamster for Roo Code
Hamster syncs briefs, plans, and team decisions into your repo. Roo Code reads them directly — full context on every session.
The problem
Roo Code generates from what you type. Without structured requirements, it fills gaps with assumptions that do not match your team decisions.
Handing Roo Code a full feature description produces sprawling changes. Someone has to break the work down — manually, every time.
Each session starts fresh. Roo Code does not remember what was decided, what was completed, or what remains in the feature plan.
Write a brief in Hamster, and AI expands it into a full spec. Generate a plan with scoped tasks. The Hamster CLI syncs everything into .hamster/ — Roo Code reads the full context directly.
Roo Code sessions start with requirements, constraints, and acceptance criteria instead of ad-hoc prompts. The output matches the spec.
Hamster decomposes features into tasks that fit a single focused session, preventing scope creep and making PRs easier to review.
The Hamster CLI syncs briefs, tasks, and plans into .hamster/ as markdown files in real time. Roo Code reads them on every action.
Before
Describe the feature in a prompt. Hope Roo Code infers the right scope. Fix the output when it misses requirements.
After
The Hamster CLI syncs the full brief into your repo. Roo Code reads .hamster/ files and builds against the spec your team aligned on.
Before
Re-explain remaining work each session. Track progress manually.
After
The CLI keeps task status in sync. Each session picks up where the last one left off.
Before
Developers using Roo Code independently have no shared context or task boundaries.
After
Hamster breaks features into non-overlapping tasks with clear acceptance criteria for each.
