FAQPage Schema
How do I execute a development plan in batches with review checkpoints?

To execute a development plan in batches with review checkpoints, you provide a written plan file and instruct the system to load it, review critically, and execute tasks in disciplined batches. This enforces structured progress reporting and reduces miscommunication.

Can I use git worktrees to manage isolated workspaces during plan execution?

Yes, you can use git worktrees to manage isolated workspaces. The plan execution workflow supports seamless integration with version-control skills, allowing disciplined batch execution within separate branches before merging reviewed tasks.

What is batch execution with checkpoints for plan-driven automation?

Batch execution with checkpoints is a workflow mechanism that loads a written plan, performs critical review, and executes tasks in disciplined batches. It requires an explicit plan file and task list to report batch progress and pause for human feedback.

Do I need an explicit plan file to start structured task tracking?

Yes, an explicit plan file and a defined task list are required to start structured task tracking. The execution mechanism depends on these inputs to orchestrate batch processing and apply review checkpoints effectively.

When should I use batch execution with checkpoints for QA testing?

You should use batch execution with checkpoints for QA testing when planning-heavy workflows require structured checkpoints and human feedback. It prevents drift by enforcing critical review between isolated task batches.

What is the best way to automate development sprints without losing track of progress?

The best way to automate development sprints without losing track of progress is using a plan-driven workflow that executes tasks in batches with review checkpoints. This method reports batch progress and integrates with version control to manage isolated workspaces.
