Cypilot Generated Skills

An artifact-first workflow automates the software development lifecycle by routing tasks through structured pipelines, ensuring deterministic validation and traceability from product requirements to code generation.

An artifact-first SDLC process enforces a structured development flow where PRD, Design, and Feature artifacts are defined and linked before code generation. You need it to maintain traceability and consistency across your software project.

To ensure traceability across product requirements, architecture decisions, and code, use an orchestrator that validates and links artifacts deterministically across each stage of the development lifecycle.

Generating code without first defining product requirements and design specs is not recommended. A structured workflow requires preceding artifacts like PRDs and Design docs to be correctly defined and linked to ensure deterministic validation.

This SDLC orchestration approach acts as a unified router to specific kit-based skills for artifact management. It integrates checks and rules for each artifact type, ensuring deterministic validation across your existing development lifecycle.

A limitation of using a unified skill router for software development lifecycle automation is that it requires invoking specific kit skills for detailed operations, meaning it orchestrates and routes rather than executing deep artifact generation directly.
