SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Decomposing briefs into concrete, trackable work is labor-intensive and error-prone. Gaia Planner automates this process by translating a brief into a structured plan with tasks, assignments, and dependencies.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Plan creation from briefs: generate plan.md with tasks and context slices.
  • Task decomposition with agent routing: assign tasks to the correct Gaia domain agents.
  • Execution-ready plan: provide a dependency graph and ACs for verification.

Quick Start

Read a brief.md to produce plan.md with tasks and agent assignments.

Frequently Asked Questions about gaia-planner

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I decompose a project brief into actionable tasks?

A brief is a document outlining project requirements, and decomposing it involves breaking it down into executable tasks. This structured approach ensures trackable work items with clear assignments and dependency graphs.

Can I automatically assign tasks to agents when creating a workflow plan?

Task decomposition with agent routing allows you to assign tasks to the correct domain agents automatically. The planner reads the brief and outputs an execution-ready plan with specific agent assignments included.

What is the best way to generate a dependency graph for a task plan?

Generating a dependency graph for a task plan is best achieved by using an automated planner that analyzes your brief. It maps task relationships and enforces acceptance criteria, producing an execution-ready dependency graph for verification.

Does the generated task plan include acceptance criteria for verification?

Yes, the generated task plan includes acceptance criteria for verification. It enforces task-level acceptance criteria and references the original brief's criteria, ensuring execution aligns with the intended project outcomes.

Do I need a specific brief format to generate a task plan?

You need a brief file to generate a task plan. The planner reads a brief document to produce a plan file, translating the brief's context slices and requirements into structured tasks and dependency graphs for execution.
