AI does the rest.\n\n[![Go Version](https://img.shields.io/badge/Go-1.25+-00ADD8E?style=for-the-badge\u0026logo=go)](https://go.dev/)\n[![GitHub Stars](https://img.shields.io/github/stars/Enriquefft/Mere?style=for-the-badge)](https://github.com/Enriquefft/Mere/stargazers)\n[![License](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-MIT-blue?style=for-the-badge)](LICENSE)\n[![CI](https://github.com/Enriquefft/Mere/workflows/Test/badge.svg)](https://github.com/Enriquefft/Mere/actions/workflows/test.yml)\n\n---\n\n## Quick Start\n\nGet from zero to your first AI-powered module in 60 seconds:\n\n```bash\n# 1. Install (one line)\ncurl -fsSL https://mere.enriquefft.com/install | bash\n\n# 2. Initialize your project\nmere init\n\n# 3. Open Claude Code and create a module\n/module\n```\n\n**That's it.** Mere scaffolds the architecture, you describe the interface, and AI builds the implementation.\n\n---\n\n## Why Mere?\n\nTraditional AI-assisted development problems:\n\n| Problem | Traditional Approach | Mere Approach |\n|----------|-------------------|--------------|\n| Context loss | Fresh agents start cold = 3-5x token cost | Single session + cached prefix = 10-20% cost |\n| Inconsistent output | Prompts drift over time | Fixed interface contracts lock behavior |\n| No boundaries | AI modifies everything | Taste applied at module boundaries only |\n| Prompts over code | 15,000-line agent configs | 50-line `.claude/` directory |\n\n**The insight:** Your codebase structure is the most critical factor in AI-assisted development — far outweighing prompt engineering or agent orchestration.\n\nMere replaces bloated meta-prompting frameworks with a single Go binary that enforces John Ousterhout's \"Deep Modules\" pattern.\n\n### Architecture Principles\n\n**Structure Over Prompts**\nYour codebase, not prompts or agent configs, is the biggest influence on AI output. Mere enforces deep modules: lots of implementation controlled by a simple interface.\n\n**Cache Advantage**\nStay in a single session to exploit Claude Code's prefix caching. Cache reads cost 10% of normal tokens vs cold cache.\n\n**Taste at the Boundaries**\nApply taste at module boundaries by writing `INTERFACE.md` contracts and boundary tests. Implementation inside modules is a \"graybox\" managed by AI.\n\n---\n\n## Installation\n\n### Recommended (One-Command Install)\n\n```bash\ncurl -fsSL https://mere.enriquefft.com/install | bash\n```\n\nThis downloads the standalone binary and places it in `/usr/local/bin`.\n\n### Alternative Install Methods\n\n**From Go:**\n```bash\ngo install github.com/Enriquefft/Mere@latest\n```\n\n**From Source:**\n```bash\ngit clone https://github.com/Enriquefft/Mere.git\ncd mere\njust build \u0026\u0026 just install\n```\n\n**From GitHub Releases:**\nDownload the latest binary from [releases](https://github.com/Enriquefft/Mere/releases) and add to your PATH.\n\n---\n\n## Usage\n\n```bash\nmere init        # Initialize .claude/ directory\nmere version     # Show version\nmere --help      # Show all commands\n```\n\nAfter `mere init`, use these AI commands in Claude Code:\n\n- **`/module`** - Create or work on a deep module\n- **`/status`** - Report project state\n\nThe AI automatically detects your project language (Go, Python, TypeScript, Java, Rust, etc.) and adapts file patterns accordingly.\n\n---\n\n## Development\n\n### Build \u0026 Test\n\n```bash\njust build        # Build to ./bin/\njust test         # Run tests\njust dev          # Full workflow (clean + deps + build + test)\n```\n\n### Nix Development\n\nUses flakes for reproducible environment:\n\n```bash\ndirenv reload    # Load dev shell\n```\n\n### Other Commands\n\n```bash\njust help          # Show all commands\njust fmt           # Format code\njust lint          # Run linter\njust deps          # Tidy dependencies\n```\n\n---\n\n## License\n\nMIT - see [LICENSE](LICENSE) for details.\n\n## Contributing\n\nContributions welcome!
