Klyve

The Automated Software Factory·klyve.online

Klyve is a local-first SDLC orchestrator that wraps an LLM in a structured methodology to build and maintain entire software applications. The user (a solo senior developer) provides requirements and architecture, while Klyve generates specifications, plans sprints, writes code, runs tests, and updates documentation. It enforces human-in-the-loop authorization at each stage rather than allowing open-ended autonomous agent behavior. It runs entirely on the user's machine using their own LLM API keys (BYOK).

What it's for

Building complete greenfield applications from a requirement briefMaintaining and extending existing (brownfield) codebasesGenerating UX/UI, application, and technical specification documentsGenerating and managing a hierarchical project backlogAutomated sprint execution with code generation, testing, and commitsAutomated regression and integration testing before releaseKeeping documentation in sync with code changes
