What Ddd is

Ddd is a plugin published in the NeoLabHQ/context-engineering-kit repository on GitHub, which has about 1.7k stars. The repository describes itself as: “Hand-crafted Claude Code Skills focused on improving agent results quality. Compatible with OpenCode, Cursor, Antigravity, Gemini CLI, and others. Includes CodeRabbit open-source alternative.”

A plugin is a package that bundles skills, slash commands, subagents, hooks, and MCP connectors so they install together. Plugins are plain files with a manifest at .claude-plugin/plugin.json, and they work in both Claude Code and Claude Cowork.

Installing Ddd adds everything it ships in one step. Connectors inside a plugin still need to be connected separately, and hooks and subagents only run in Cowork and Claude Code, not in regular chat.

How to install Ddd

Claude Code

  1. Add the repository as a plugin marketplace: claude plugin marketplace add NeoLabHQ/context-engineering-kit
  2. Install the plugin: claude plugin install ddd@<marketplace-name>, using the marketplace name from the repository's .claude-plugin/marketplace.json.
  3. Restart the session if the new skills or commands don't appear straight away.

Claude Cowork

  1. Open Customize → Plugins and choose Add marketplace.
  2. Enter NeoLabHQ/context-engineering-kit (the owner/repo shorthand works for GitHub).
  3. Find Ddd in the list, click Install, then connect any connectors it needs from its Connectors tab.

Inside the source file

An excerpt from plugins/ddd/.claude-plugin/plugin.json, shared under the repository's GPL-3.0 license. Read the full file on GitHub.

Code quality framework that embeds Clean Architecture, SOLID principles, and Domain-Driven Design patterns into your development workflow through persistent rules and contextual commands.

Focused on:

  • Clean Architecture - Separation of concerns with layered architecture boundaries
  • Domain-Driven Design - Ubiquitous language and bounded contexts for complex domains
  • SOLID Principles - Single responsibility, open-closed, and dependency inversion patterns
  • Code Quality Standards - Consistent formatting, naming conventions, and anti-pattern avoidance

Overview

The DDD plugin implements battle-tested software architecture principles that have proven essential for building maintainable, scalable systems. All principles encoded as rules that include correct and incorrect code examples and added to agent context, during code writing. To add rules to your agent, simply enable plugin.

The plugin is based on foundational works including Eric Evans' "Domain-Driven Design" (2003), Robert C. Martin's "Clean Architecture" (2017), and the SOLID principles that have become industry standards for object-oriented design.

These principles address the core challenge of software development: managing complexity. By establishing clear boundaries between business logic and infrastructure, using domain-specific naming, and following proven design patterns, teams can build systems that remain understandable and modifiable as they grow.

Quick Start

# Install the plugin
/plugin install ddd@NeoLabHQ/context-engineering-kit

# Rules activate automatically when writing or reviewing code
# Alternatively, you can ask Claude to use DDD directly
> claude "Use DDD rules to implement user authentication"

Usage Examples

Rules

The DDD plugin includes 14 rules organized into four categories that activate automatically when writing or reviewing code. Each rule targets specific file patterns and has an assigned impact level.

See rules.md for detailed documentation of all rules.

Foundation

The DDD plugin is based on foundational software engineering literature that has shaped modern development practices:

Core Literature

  • Domain-Driven Design (Eric Evans, 2003) - Introduced ubiquitous language, bounded contexts, and strategic design patterns for managing complex domains
  • Clean Architecture (Robert C. Martin, 2012/2017) - Defines dependency rules and layer boundaries for maintainable systems
  • SOLID Principles (Robert C. Martin, 2000s) - Five principles of object-oriented design that promote maintainability

Before you install

  • Read the whole file first. Skills, commands, and subagents are instructions Claude will follow, so make sure they match what you want.
  • Check which tools, scripts, or MCP servers it uses. Local servers and scripts run with your permissions.
  • Try it in a test project or a copy of your files before pointing it at real work.
  • Pin the version you tested, and review changes before updating.
  • Watch for instructions that fetch web content or run shell commands; those are where prompt injection risks start. See our prompt injection guide.
