SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Gate and validate readiness for a multi-agent kickoff batch before initiating a vertical-slice deployment, preventing premature execution.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Readiness assessment of cross-component handoffs before deployment.
  • Vocabulary and contract checks to ensure host, services, and UI align on messages and data shapes.
  • Failure-path detection to identify the first failing contract or seam and provide actionable next steps.

Quick Start

Run a readiness check on the new kickoff batch against the build, tests, and contract vocabularies to produce a verdict.

FAQPage Schema
How do I validate multi-agent readiness before a vertical-slice deployment?

Validate multi-agent readiness by gating the kickoff batch on build and test success, verifying vocabulary alignment across host and UI, and ensuring traceability to real code paths. This prevents premature execution of cross-component handoffs.

What is vocabulary alignment testing for parallel host and UI development?

Vocabulary alignment testing checks that host, services, and UI components share consistent message definitions and data shapes. It ensures contract consistency across integrated seams before initiating parallel development deployments.

When do I need a readiness review for cross-component handoffs?

You need a readiness review when preparing a multi-agent kickoff batch for vertical-slice deployment, especially during parallel host, services, and UI development where contract consistency and vocabulary alignment are critical.

How do I detect failing contract seams in an integration testing batch?

Detect failing contract seams by running a readiness check that identifies the first failing contract or seam, separates placeholder from integrated seams, and provides actionable next steps for resolving the failure.

Can I use this readiness check for early-stage integration testing?

Yes, the readiness check applies during early readiness reviews and integration testing phases where you need to ensure vocabulary alignment and contract consistency across components before parallel development proceeds.

What limitations exist when gating multi-agent kickoff batches?

The readiness gate requires separation of placeholder from integrated seams and traceability to real code paths. It cannot proceed if build or test success criteria are unmet or if vocabulary alignment across host and UI fails.
