SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Start a new milestone cycle by initializing milestone context, updating PROJECT history, and routing the workflow from questioning to requirements and roadmap.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Creates/Updates planning artifacts: .planning/PROJECT.md with milestone goals, .planning/ROADMAP.md with phase structure, .planning/STATE.md reset for the new milestone
  • Optional domain research folder: .planning/research/ for new features
  • Generates scoped requirements: .planning/REQUIREMENTS.md
  • Primes the workflow for execution by setting up the planning state and routing to the next phase
  • After setup, initiate execution via /gsd-plan-phase [N]

Quick Start

Run the gsd-new-milestone workflow to create and align a new milestone, then start the plan phase with the appropriate milestone number.

FAQPage Schema
How do I initialize planning artifacts for a new project milestone?

To initialize planning artifacts for a new project milestone, the workflow creates and updates PROJECT.md, STATE.md, ROADMAP.md, and REQUIREMENTS.md. It resets the planning state and routes the workflow directly to the requirements and roadmap phases.

What does milestone planning automate in a project management workflow?

Milestone planning automates starting a new workflow cycle by initializing milestone documents, updating project history, and routing from initial questioning to requirements generation and roadmap structuring.

How do I scope requirements and generate a roadmap for new features?

To scope requirements and generate a roadmap for new features, the workflow populates REQUIREMENTS.md with scoped details and structures ROADMAP.md with phase definitions, while optionally seeding a dedicated research folder for domain context.

Do I need any dependencies to set up milestone gates and workspace files?

No external dependencies are required to set up milestone gates and workspace files. The workflow operates independently to enforce milestone gates and prepare the .planning directory structure for execution.

What is the next step after initializing milestone docs and preparing the workspace?

After initializing milestone docs and preparing the workspace, the next step is to initiate execution via the plan phase command. This transitions the workflow from setup to active project planning and execution.
