SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Prevents rushed or unsafe implementations by providing a structured pre-implementation checklist and an incremental development workflow that keep changes small, testable, and reversible.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Pre-implementation checklist: Restate requirements, read existing code, identify affected files, check tests, and search for related PRs before writing code.
  • Incremental development: Encourage smallest meaningful changes, compile/lint frequently, commit after logical steps, and test each change to keep the codebase working.
  • Code organization & change management: Guidance on file responsibility, grouping by feature, PR scope, and when to defer technical debt; useful for new features, refactors, multi-file changes, and unfamiliar code areas.

Quick Start

Apply the pre-implementation checklist to a task by asking the assistant to run the coding-workflow on your planned change.

FAQPage Schema
What is a pre-implementation checklist for software development?

A pre-implementation checklist ensures readiness before coding by restating requirements, reading affected code, identifying impacted files, verifying tests, and confirming commit strategy to prevent rushed or unsafe implementations.

How do I plan a multi-file refactoring task safely?

Plan multi-file refactoring safely by identifying impacted files and dependencies, checking existing tests, and following an incremental development workflow that keeps changes small, testable, and reversible.

What is the best way to manage incremental development in an unfamiliar codebase?

The best way to manage incremental development in unfamiliar code areas is making the smallest meaningful changes, compiling and linting frequently, testing each step, and committing after logical progressions.

When should I use a structured coding workflow for pull request preparation?

Use a structured coding workflow for pull request preparation when implementing new features, refactoring existing logic, or modifying unfamiliar code areas to ensure proper code organization and scoped PR changes.

How does incremental development prevent technical debt during refactoring?

Incremental development prevents technical debt during refactoring by enforcing small test-driven changes, maintaining a working codebase, and providing guidance on when to defer technical debt based on PR scope.

Does a pre-implementation checklist help with code organization?

Yes, a pre-implementation checklist helps with code organization by providing guidance on file responsibility, grouping code by feature, and establishing proper PR scope before writing new logic.
