SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill solves the fragmentation of development workflows by providing a unified, repeatable process for managing tasks from initial branch creation to final release, preventing context switching and manual oversight.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Start-to-Finish Orchestration: Automates the transition between task initiation, implementation, verification, and release.
  • Context-Aware Delegation: Intelligently routes specific tasks to specialized skills like git, testing, code-review, and update-docs.
  • Use Case: When starting a new feature, use this skill to pull the latest code, create a branch, and brainstorm a spec; when finished, use it to run tests, sync documentation, open a PR, and cut a release.

Quick Start

Invoke the dev-cycle skill to start working on a new feature branch for the current task.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate the software development lifecycle from branch creation to release?

You can automate the software development lifecycle by orchestrating branch creation, testing, documentation, and release processes into a unified workflow. This prevents context switching and eliminates manual oversight across feature development and bug fixes.

What's the best way to manage git workflows for feature development and bug fixes?

Managing git workflows for feature development and bug fixes is best handled by orchestrating the entire process from branch creation through testing and documentation to final release. This ensures consistent, verified code delivery across git-based repositories.

Do I need a forge CLI to automate CI/CD release processes?

Yes, you need a compatible forge CLI along with git to automate CI/CD release processes. Integration with testing and documentation tools is also required to ensure consistent, verified code delivery throughout the development lifecycle.

Can I sync documentation and run tests automatically when finishing a feature branch?

Yes, you can sync documentation and run tests automatically when finishing a feature branch. The workflow intelligently routes specific tasks to specialized skills for testing, documentation, and code review before opening a PR and cutting a release.

What is context-aware delegation in DevOps workflow automation?

Context-aware delegation in DevOps workflow automation routes specific tasks to specialized skills like git, testing, code-review, and update-docs. This intelligently manages the transition between task initiation, implementation, verification, and release.

When should I avoid using a unified development workflow orchestration approach?

You should avoid unified development workflow orchestration if you lack git, a compatible forge CLI, or integration with testing and documentation tools. These dependencies are required to ensure consistent, verified code delivery across git-based repositories.
