FAQPage Schema
How do I review and approve a plan within the SPADES framework?

To approve a plan within the SPADES framework, run the /spades:approve command to generate a comprehensive human review checklist evaluating architecture, feasibility, and scope. It then determines a routing decision and updates the plan status accordingly.

What does the SPADES plan approval checklist evaluate?

The SPADES plan approval checklist evaluates architecture alignment, completeness, feasibility, risk, scope, and deliverable fit. This structured human review ensures thorough evaluation of all plan requirements before proceeding with routing decisions.

How are routing decisions determined during human review of a plan?

Routing decisions for plan approval are determined by evaluating the plan's specific requirements and risks identified during the checklist review. The system then routes the task as AI, human, or hybrid based on these assessed factors.

What files do I need to execute the SPADES approval process?

Executing the SPADES approval process requires access to the plan file and scope file. The Skill also requires the ability to execute sub-agents to write updates back to these plan and scope files during routing decisions.

Can I automate plan status updates after completing a human review checklist?

Yes, you can automate plan status updates after completing the human review checklist by executing sub-agents. These sub-agents write the final routing decisions and approval statuses directly into the plan and scope files.

When should I use an automated checklist for plan approval instead of manual review?

You should use an automated checklist for plan approval when you need structured evaluation of architecture, feasibility, and scope within the SPADES framework. It standardizes human review to prevent overlooking risk and deliverable fit issues.
