CAPPY - Context Orchestration for Intelligent Development
Transform your development from reactive to intelligent. Every task learns from your project's context automatically.
The Problem with Traditional Development
Every task starts from zero. You write code, encounter the same issues, google the same solutions, and repeat mistakes you've already solved. Your project's knowledge exists only in your head.
Context switching kills productivity. You jump between tasks without understanding their relationships, missing opportunities for reuse and creating inconsistencies.
Prevention knowledge gets lost. You fix a bug, but the knowledge of why it happened and how to prevent it vanishes into git commits and forgotten conversations.
The CAPPY Solution: Context Orchestration
CAPPY 2.0 introduces Context Orchestration - your development environment becomes intelligent by automatically connecting tasks with relevant documentation, prevention rules, and related work.
Intelligence That Grows With Your Project
Every task is born smart. When you describe a new task, CAPPY automatically:
- Finds relevant documentation from your project
- Applies prevention rules from similar past work
- Suggests related tasks and dependencies
- Pre-populates context with architectural knowledge
Your mistakes become system intelligence. Failed approaches, debugging solutions, and hard-learned lessons transform into Prevention Rules that protect future work automatically.
Context flows seamlessly. Tasks aren't isolated - they inherit knowledge from your project's architecture, coding patterns, and accumulated wisdom.
How It Works
1. Intelligent Task Creation
You: "I need to add JWT authentication"
CAPPY Context Discovery:
✓ Found: docs/auth/patterns.md
✓ Found: 3 prevention rules for auth category
✓ Found: 1 related task (user-session-mgmt)
✓ Auto-applied: JWT null validation rule
✓ Category: auth (inferred automatically)
Result: Task born with complete context
2. Natural Language Commands
No memorizing syntax. Just express intent naturally:
- "create new task" → Context discovery + XSD template
- "what's my current task?" → Status with context summary
- "analyze my project" → Architecture mapping + knowledge extraction
- "work on current task" → Context-aware execution
3. Prevention Rules Evolution
<rule category="auth" severity="high" auto_apply="true">
Always validate JWT token existence before decode operations
</rule>
Errors become protection. Debugging becomes documentation. Learning compounds automatically.
4. XSD-Structured Intelligence
Every task follows a rigorous schema ensuring:
- Context section with discovered knowledge
- Execution steps with clear validation criteria
- Learning capture for continuous improvement
- Metrics tracking for effectiveness measurement
Quick Start
Install & Initialize
VS Code
# Install from VS Code Marketplace
code --install-extension eduardocecon.cappy
# In VS Code Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P)
> CAPPY: Initialize Project
Cursor
# Install from VSIX file or Extensions Marketplace
# In Cursor Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P)
> CAPPY: Initialize Project
✨ Cursor Support: CAPPY é totalmente compatível com Cursor! Todas as funcionalidades funcionam perfeitamente no Cursor, incluindo integração com IA e gerenciamento de contexto.
⚠️ Important: All CAPPY commands must be executed via VS Code Command Palette or API calls (vscode.commands.executeCommand
). Never run CAPPY commands directly in terminal.
Build Project Intelligence
# In GitHub Copilot Chat
"analyze my project structure"
# CAPPY maps your architecture, identifies components,
# and builds foundational context for intelligent task management
Create Your First Smart Task
# In GitHub Copilot Chat
"I need to add user authentication"
# Watch CAPPY automatically discover relevant context:
# - Related documentation
# - Applicable prevention rules
# - Similar past tasks
# - Architectural dependencies

Context Discovery Pipeline:
- Semantic Analysis - Extract keywords and intent from task description
- Category Inference - Automatically categorize based on content patterns
- Knowledge Retrieval - Find relevant docs, rules, and related tasks
- Context Injection - Pre-populate task with discovered intelligence
- Continuous Learning - Capture outcomes for future context improvement
Why Context Orchestration Changes Everything
For Individual Developers
- Eliminate repeated mistakes through automatic prevention rule application
- Accelerate task creation with pre-populated relevant context
- Maintain project knowledge that grows more valuable over time
- Reduce cognitive load by having context served automatically
For Development Teams
- Knowledge sharing through shared context indices and prevention rules
- Consistency enforcement via automatic application of team standards
- Onboarding acceleration with comprehensive project context mapping
- Quality improvement through accumulated prevention intelligence
For Complex Projects
- Architectural awareness in every task through context orchestration
- Dependency management via automatic relationship mapping
- Technical debt prevention through pattern recognition and rule application
- Knowledge preservation that survives team changes and time
Real-World Impact
Before CAPPY: Task creation takes 15+ minutes of context gathering, reviewing similar work, and remembering edge cases.
With CAPPY: Describe intent in natural language. System instantly provides relevant context, prevention rules, and architectural knowledge. Task creation in under 2 minutes with superior context.
The Multiplier Effect: Each completed task makes the next one smarter. Prevention rules compound. Context quality improves. Development velocity increases over time.

XSD Schema Compliance
All tasks follow rigorous XML schema validation:
<task xmlns="https://cappy-methodology.dev/task/1.0"
category="auth"
id="jwt-implementation">
<context discovery_timestamp="2025-01-15T10:30:00Z">
<!-- Automatically populated by context orchestration -->
</context>
<execution>
<!-- Smart task decomposition -->
</execution>
<completion>
<!-- Learning capture for future intelligence -->
</completion>
</task>
Automatic Schema Management
CAPPY 2.9.5+ automatically manages XSD schemas for optimal development experience:
- Auto-Sync on Init: All XSD schemas from
resources/
are copied to .cappy/schemas/
during project initialization
- Startup Synchronization: Schemas are updated automatically when VS Code loads projects with existing
.cappy/schemas/
directories
- Version Control Ready: Schemas stay current with extension updates, ensuring consistency across development environments
- IntelliSense Support: Local schemas provide better XML validation and autocompletion for task definitions
<!-- Available schemas after initialization -->
.cappy/schemas/
├── task-template.xsd # Task structure validation
└── (additional schemas) # Future schema extensions
Note: Schemas are automatically updated on VS Code startup and extension activation, ensuring your development environment stays synchronized with the latest CAPPY improvements.
Prevention Rule Intelligence
<rule id="jwt-null-check"
category="auth"
severity="high"
auto_apply="true">
