# 👥 Pair Programming Command Collaborative development with real-time verification and AI assistance. ## Overview The `pair` command enables collaborative pair programming between you and AI agents, with real-time verification, code review, and quality enforcement. ## Usage ```bash claude-flow pair [--start] [options] ``` ## Quick Start ```bash # Start pair programming session claude-flow pair --start # Start with specific agent claude-flow pair --start --agent senior-dev # Start with verification claude-flow pair --start --verify --threshold 0.98 ``` ## Options - `--start` - Start new pair programming session - `--agent ` - Specify AI pair partner (default: auto-select) - `--verify` - Enable real-time verification - `--threshold <0-1>` - Verification threshold (default: 0.95) - `--mode ` - Programming mode: driver, navigator, switch - `--focus ` - Focus area: refactor, test, debug, implement - `--language ` - Primary language for session - `--review` - Enable continuous code review - `--test` - Run tests after each change ## Modes ### Driver Mode You write code, AI provides suggestions and reviews. ```bash claude-flow pair --start --mode driver ``` ### Navigator Mode AI writes code, you provide guidance and review. ```bash claude-flow pair --start --mode navigator ``` ### Switch Mode (Default) Alternate between driver and navigator roles. ```bash claude-flow pair --start --mode switch --interval 10m ``` ## Features ### Real-Time Verification - Continuous truth checking (0.95 threshold) - Automatic rollback on verification failure - Quality gates before commits ### Code Review - Instant feedback on code changes - Best practice suggestions - Security vulnerability detection - Performance optimization tips ### Test Integration - Automatic test generation - Test-driven development support - Coverage monitoring - Integration test suggestions ### Collaboration Tools - Shared context between you and AI - Session history and replay - Code explanation on demand - Learning from your preferences ## Session Management ### Start Session ```bash # Basic start claude-flow pair --start # With configuration claude-flow pair --start \ --agent expert-coder \ --verify \ --test \ --focus refactor ``` ### During Session ```commands /help - Show available commands /explain - Explain current code /suggest - Get improvement suggestions /test - Run tests /verify - Check verification score /switch - Switch driver/navigator roles /focus - Change focus area /commit - Commit with verification /pause - Pause session /resume - Resume session /end - End session ``` ### End Session ```bash # End and save session claude-flow pair --end --save # End and generate report claude-flow pair --end --report ``` ## Examples ### Refactoring Session ```bash claude-flow pair --start \ --focus refactor \ --verify \ --threshold 0.98 ``` ### Test-Driven Development ```bash claude-flow pair --start \ --focus test \ --mode tdd \ --language javascript ``` ### Bug Fixing ```bash claude-flow pair --start \ --focus debug \ --agent debugger-expert \ --test ``` ### Code Review Session ```bash claude-flow pair --start \ --review \ --verify \ --agent senior-reviewer ``` ## Integration ### With Git ```bash # Auto-commit with verification claude-flow pair --start --git --auto-commit # Review before commit claude-flow pair --start --git --review-commit ``` ### With Testing Frameworks ```bash # Jest integration claude-flow pair --start --test-framework jest # Pytest integration claude-flow pair --start --test-framework pytest ``` ### With CI/CD ```bash # CI-friendly mode claude-flow pair --start --ci --non-interactive ``` ## Session Output ``` 👥 Pair Programming Session Started ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Partner: expert-coder Mode: Switch (10m intervals) Focus: Implementation Verification: ✅ Enabled (0.95) Testing: ✅ Auto-run Current Role: DRIVER (you) Navigator: expert-coder is reviewing... 📝 Working on: src/auth/login.js Truth Score: 0.972 ✅ Test Coverage: 84% 📈 💡 Suggestion: Consider adding input validation for email field 🔍 Review: Line 23 -

**Productivity**: Lines changed, features completed - **Learning**: Patterns learned from collaboration - **Test Coverage**: Coverage improvement during session ## Configuration Configure pair programming in `.claude-flow/config.json`: ```json { "pair": { "defaultAgent": "expert-coder", "defaultMode": "switch", "switchInterval": "10m", "verification": { "enabled": true, "threshold": 0.95, "autoRollback": true }, "testing": { "autoRun": true, "framework": "jest", "coverage": { "minimum": 80, "enforce": true } }, "review": { "continuous": true, "preCommit": true } } } ``` ## Best Practices 1. **Start with Clear Goals**: Define what you want to accomplish 2. **Use Verification**: Enable verification for critical code 3. **Test Frequently**: Run tests after significant changes 4. **Review Together**: Use review features for learning 5. **Document Decisions**: AI will help document why choices were made ## Related Commands - `verify` - Standalone verification - `truth` - View quality metrics - `test` - Run test suites - `review` - Code review tools
