FAQPage Schema
How do I generate junior-proof issue cards and executable plans for a software project?

Generate junior-proof issue cards by providing a brief work description to produce detailed issue cards and ExecPlans. The output includes explicit contracts, tests, verification steps, and rollback guidance to minimize ambiguity for novice engineers.

How does automated spec generation align issue cards with repository templates like AGENTS.md?

Automated spec generation aligns issue cards by analyzing project templates and checking for required sections. It enforces consistency with AGENTS.md, PLANS.md, and ISSUE_CARD_TEMPLATE.md to ensure a runnable, novice-proof specification.

What's the best way to create executable plans that include rollback guidance and acceptance criteria?

Create executable plans with rollback guidance by drafting an expert-aligned ExecPlan for a given work item. The resulting artifacts capture outcomes, requirements, tests, and acceptance criteria to ensure clear verification and scoping.

Do I need existing repository templates to produce novice-friendly issue cards?

You need existing repository templates to produce novice-friendly issue cards. The Skill analyzes project templates like AGENTS.md and checks for required sections to ensure the generated spec is runnable and aligned with your workflow.

Can I use this issue card generation approach for work items that require explicit contracts and verification steps?

You can use this approach for work items requiring explicit contracts and verification steps. It drafts expert-aligned issue cards and ExecPlans that output final artifacts in the repository, ensuring robust scoping with minimal ambiguity.

Why does my generated ExecPlan need to include rollback considerations and explicit outcomes?

Your generated ExecPlan needs rollback considerations and explicit outcomes to minimize ambiguity for junior engineers. This ensures the executable plan contains detailed, step-by-step guidance with clear verification and acceptance criteria.
