What problem does it solve?
This Skill provides a disciplined, reusable framework to implement software features, fix bugs, or perform code changes using the APEX methodology (Analyze-Plan-Execute-Examine). It orchestrates parallel agents, self-validation, and optional adversarial reviews to improve quality, traceability, and efficiency.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Adaptive workflow orchestration: Loads steps progressively (00-init, 01-analyze, 02-plan, etc.) to minimize active context and token usage.
- Resume and save outputs: Supports -r resume and -s save modes, preserving state and results for resumption.
- Optional reviews: Includes adversarial review (step-05) and resolution (step-06) to improve robustness.
- Plan-driven execution: Encourages a separate planning phase (step-02) before implementation (step-03), with strict validation afterward.
