What problem does it solve?
Transforms written requirements and technology decisions into a validated, contract-first module architecture and a navigable knowledge graph so teams can move from ambiguity to approved implementation plans without generating code prematurely.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Prerequisite validation: Checks for docs/requirements.xml and docs/technology.xml and prompts to run initialization if they are missing.
- Contract-first module design: Produces MODULE_CONTRACT entries (purpose, scope, dependencies, links) and classifies modules by type (ENTRY_POINT, CORE_LOGIC, DATA_LAYER, UI_COMPONENT, UTILITY, INTEGRATION).
- Knowledge graph generation: Emits docs/knowledge-graph.xml with unique M-xxx nodes, function/type annotations, and CrossLinks.
- Collaborative approval workflow: Presents a structured module breakdown and mental test walkthroughs, waits for user approval, then creates docs/development-plan.xml and knowledge-graph.xml.
- Use cases: New feature scoping, module refactors, platform integration planning, and design audits before code generation.
Quick Start
Run the grace-plan skill against your project that contains docs/requirements.xml and docs/technology.xml to produce a development-plan.xml and knowledge-graph.xml after approving the proposed architecture.
