To bootstrap a new software project with an AI workflow, define your project vision and constraints. The skill then scaffolds your directory, establishes project rules, sets up a decision journal, and creates immutable design docs for phased planning.

Restoring development workflow discipline requires a mid-course correction to re-establish phased planning. The skill re-establishes review gates, decision journals, and immutable design documentation to self-govern handoffs and correct project drift.

Phased planning in AI pair programming is a structured collaboration method. It enforces one-decision-at-a-time discussions, sets clear phase exit criteria, and archives phase tracking to ensure durable project conventions before implementation begins.

Yes, you can use this skill for an existing application needing course correction. It applies self-governing handoff rules and restores drifting project processes by re-establishing design docs, journals, and review gates without restarting the build.

Yes, you need immutable design documentation and an archived decision journal to start a project workflow. These components lock in durable project conventions and ensure future AI sessions follow the established rules without reloading context.
