Documentation

NZT is a working method for coding agents. It gives the model shape through method, memory and brakes so it performs steadily, from idea to product.

A coding agent can get to the wrong place very fast. See what changes with NZT: analysis before code, reviewable units and honest reports of what happened.

Three layers, and only what is needed gets loaded. How NZT routes each request from the kernel to a phase router, and from there to the one leaf the task needs.

Understand, propose, execute, verify and record. The NZT five-step cycle is always the same; what changes with the size of the request is how deep it goes.

The brakes are a feature. Learn the three NZT STOPs and how Plan/state.json keeps the work so a new session can resume without rebuilding the chat history.

Discovery, Architecture, UX, Build, Verify, Ship and Learn. What each NZT phase covers, and why a phase comes in only if it changes what is going to be built.

The .NET 10, Blazor, EF Core and Minimal APIs skills are always installed, but NZT applies them only when the component's stack document has chosen them.

Decisions and evidence outside the chat. The artifact each NZT phase leaves, where it lives in your repo and the rules that keep the agent from fooling itself.

NZT does not decide for you. What the method does not do: it does not limit the model, use subagents or MCP, guarantee perfect routing or replace your judgment.

How to use NZT once it is installed. Open your agent, ask for what you want to build, approve the plan and move forward one unit at a time. No new commands.

Real requests for each moment of a project with NZT: the kickoff, the answers to discovery, the plan approval, the verification and the learning mode.

How NZT works in Claude Code: where the instructions and the skills are installed, and how it loads on its own every time you open claude in any project.

How NZT works in Codex CLI: where AGENTS.md and the skills go, what happens when you change CODEX_HOME and what to check first if Codex does not see the skills.

Guide to installing NZT in Claude Code on Windows with a single PowerShell command: requirements, what it installs and where, how it loads and how to update it.

Guide to installing NZT in Codex CLI on Windows with a single PowerShell command: requirements, where AGENTS.md and the skills go, loading and updating.

How to uninstall NZT from Claude Code and Codex CLI. It removes only what its manifest lists and keeps your own content in CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md intact.

Reference for the NZT CLI commands: install, uninstall, status, verify and the interactive menu, with their --provider and --dry-run options explained.

Common questions about NZT: whether it improves the code, applies to all your projects, works outside .NET, overwrites CLAUDE.md, and how to update it.
