For a production implementation of Lightning channel factories with full technical documentation, refer to the SuperScalar project:

https://github.com/8144225309/SuperScalar

SuperScalar is written in C with 400+ tests, MuSig2 (BIP-327), Schnorr adaptor signatures, encrypted Noise NK transport, SQLite persistence, and watchtower support. It supports regtest, signet, testnet, and mainnet.

Managing Autonomous Development

jeremylongshore/claude-code-plugins-plus-skills

Enables Claude to manage Sugar's autonomous development workflows. It allows Claude to create tasks, view the status of the system, review pending tasks, and start autonomous execution mode. Use this skill when the user asks to create a new development task using `/sugar-task`, check the system status with `/sugar-status`, review pending tasks via `/sugar-review`, or initiate autonomous development using `/sugar-run`. It provides a comprehensive interface for interacting with the Sugar autonomous development system.

Overnight Development

jeremylongshore/claude-code-plugins-plus-skills

Automates software development overnight using Git hooks to enforce test-driven development (TDD). This skill should be used when Claude needs to build new features, refactor existing code, or fix bugs autonomously, ensuring all changes are fully tested and meet specified quality standards. Use when the user mentions "overnight development", "autonomous coding", or asks about TDD workflows and Git hooks. This skill leverages Git hooks to block commits until all tests pass, enforcing a rigorous TDD process and ensuring high-quality, production-ready code.
