What problem does it solve?
This Skill solves the problem of inconsistent, incomplete R&D processes that skip critical steps like observability planning and test coverage validation, leading to low-quality deliverables, rework, and missed enterprise compliance requirements for software development teams.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Standardized 9-Step R&D Workflow: Guides teams through every phase from user story definition to continuous deployment, with mandatory human confirmation at each step to prevent skipped critical tasks.
- Automated Project Initialization: Automatically generates project-specific workspace skills for new team members or AI instances, consolidating architecture, tech stack, and development conventions in one place.
- Enforced Quality Guardrails: Requires 1:1 E2E test coverage for all user stories, mandates observability planning before implementation, and ensures all documentation is committed before coding starts.
- Use Case: For example, when a team starts building a new user-facing feature, the Skill walks them through writing user stories, technical design, UI design confirmation, test planning, observability setup, TDD implementation, MR creation, CI configuration, and CD setup, ensuring no gaps in the development process.
Quick Start
Invoke the dev-workflow skill when starting work on a new feature or resuming an existing in-progress feature to execute the full 9-step R&D checklist with mandatory validation at each stage.
