SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It turns an approved technical plan into working code changes by executing each phase in order and ensuring each phase meets its success criteria before moving on.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Phase-by-phase implementation: Executes changes exactly according to the plan phases in flow/plans/, updating progress as work completes.
  • Evidence-backed verification: Runs the plan’s specified automated checks and pauses for human manual verification when required.
  • Plan mismatch handling: Detects when the repository state diverges from the plan and stops to clearly request guidance rather than guessing.

Quick Start

Ask the AI to run the implementation for a specific plan file by providing its plan path, for example: "Use /implement-plan to execute the plan at flow/plans/<your-plan-file>.md."

FAQPage Schema
How do I execute an implementation plan phase by phase with test verification?▼

You can execute an implementation plan by providing the plan file path, and the system will apply each phase's code changes sequentially, run automated checks, and pause for manual verification before proceeding.

What happens if my repository state diverges from the approved technical plan during execution?▼

When the repository state diverges from the plan, execution stops and clearly requests guidance rather than guessing, ensuring plan mismatch handling prevents uncontrolled codebase synchronization errors.

How does phase workflow handle existing progress checkmarks in a plan file?▼

Phase workflow honors existing checkmarks in the plan file by reading the entire plan and referenced files for full context, skipping completed items, and updating progress only as new work finishes.

Can I automate codebase synchronization from a pre-defined technical plan without manual intervention?▼

You cannot fully automate it without manual intervention, because the workflow pauses to issue a manual verification-ready message for human checks and does not mark manual steps as complete prematurely.

Does plan execution support running automated tests as success criteria between phases?▼

Plan execution supports running automated tests by executing listed checks per phase, using evidence-backed verification to ensure each phase meets its success criteria before controlled progression to the next phase.
