SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Orchestrates a four-phase development workflow by routing planning and managing through Opus, while codex-backed implementation and validation handle execution and testing, enabling balanced quota usage and clear handoffs.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Phase-based coordination: planning (Opus), implementation (codex-backed), validation (codex task validator), and managing review (Opus).
  • Parallel tasking and convergence: supports multiple tasks in parallel with convergence checks and optional data testing workflows.
  • Team orchestration and governance: assigns owners, tracks status, provides centralized progress reports for stakeholders.

Quick Start

Prepare a user problem statement and trigger the codex-dev-workflow to begin the planning phase.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate a multi-phase development workflow with parallel tasking?

You automate a multi-phase development workflow by orchestrating planning, parallel implementation, convergence checks, and formal validation. This ensures tasks run in parallel with status tracking and convergence loops, providing centralized progress reports and reliable, auditable outcomes for complex software projects.

What is phase-based governance in a development workflow?

Phase-based governance in a development workflow separates planning, implementation, validation, and managing review into distinct stages. It enforces task ownership, tracks status centrally, and requires formal management reviews, ensuring reliable and auditable outcomes for complex software projects.

How do I coordinate planning and implementation agents for software development?

You coordinate planning and implementation agents by routing planning and managing through Opus, while codex-backed implementation and validation handle execution and testing. This division enables balanced quota usage, clear handoffs, and dual validation across the development lifecycle.

Can I use convergence loops to manage parallel development tasks?

Yes, you can use convergence loops to manage parallel development tasks. The workflow supports multiple tasks running simultaneously with convergence checks and optional data testing workflows, ensuring that parallel implementations converge correctly before formal validation and management review.

Does dual validation improve reliability for complex software projects?

Dual validation improves reliability for complex software projects by running codex-backed validation alongside formal management reviews. This dual approach enforces phase-based governance and task ownership, ensuring that implementations are thoroughly tested and auditable before project completion.

What's the best way to start an automated dev workflow orchestration?

The best way to start automated dev workflow orchestration is to prepare a user problem statement and trigger the workflow to begin the planning phase. The system then coordinates Opus planning, codex-backed implementation, and validation to manage the full development lifecycle.
