FAQPage Schema
How do I automate project initialization and generate planning artifacts?

Automating project initialization requires prompting targeted questions and capturing domain research to generate structured planning artifacts like PROJECT.md, ROADMAP.md, and REQUIREMENTS.md directly into a .planning directory.

What is the best way to capture project requirements and create a milestone roadmap?

Capturing requirements and creating a milestone roadmap is best achieved through an end-to-end structured discovery flow that stores domain research and generates planning documents for future reference across teams.

How does automatic project scaffolding work for new initiatives?

Automatic project scaffolding works by executing a workflow that prompts questions about your new initiative, then automatically creates a .planning directory containing config.json, STATE.md, and other essential planning files.

Can I use this project setup workflow for any team scope or domain?

Yes, this project setup workflow applies to any new initiative requiring structured discovery, requirements capture, and milestone roadmapping, regardless of team size or domain scope.

What planning documents are generated when initializing a new project?

Initializing a new project generates a comprehensive .planning directory containing PROJECT.md, config.json, REQUIREMENTS.md, ROADMAP.md, and STATE.md to satisfy lifecycle requirements.

Do I need any dependencies to run the project initialization workflow?

No dependencies are required to run the project initialization workflow, allowing you to directly gather context and create planning artifacts without prerequisite environment setup.
