SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill orchestrates end-to-end autonomous feature development with a single approval gate, streamlining research, planning, execution, review, and knowledge capture within Atlas.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Orchestrated workflow: Coordinates research, planning, approval, execution, review, and documentation in a repeatable cycle.
  • Single approval gate: Allows a user to approve the plan before Atlas proceeds to work, reducing rework.
  • Knowledge capture: Updates CLAUDE.md / AGENTS.md with learnings and decisions during the Compound phase.

Quick Start

Use the build-feature skill to start an end-to-end feature development workflow. The skill will guide you through resume/plan/approval etc.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate feature development from research to deployment?

Autonomous feature development automates the end-to-end lifecycle from research to execution within Atlas. It orchestrates planning, state tracking, and task management into a repeatable cycle before applying code changes.

Can I require approval before an automated workflow executes code changes?

Yes, automated feature development workflows can implement a single approval gate. This allows you to review and approve the generated plan before the system proceeds to actual execution, reducing potential rework.

How does an automated task management workflow capture project knowledge?

Automated task management captures project knowledge by updating CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md files. During the final documentation phase, it records decisions and learnings to maintain an auditable knowledge base.

What is the best way to track state across an orchestrated feature development lifecycle?

Orchestrated feature development tracks state by coordinating research, planning, execution, and review in a structured cycle. It maintains auditable progress updates throughout the workflow within Atlas.

Does autonomous feature development work without external dependencies?

Yes, autonomous feature development operates without external dependencies. It relies entirely on internal orchestration and state tracking within Atlas to manage the complete research to execution lifecycle.

When should I use a single approval gate for automated feature planning?

A single approval gate is ideal when you need an auditable, organized lifecycle for feature development. Use it to verify automated research and planning outputs before committing to execution and code changes.
