SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Phase-driven execution prevents messy, partially-complete changes by turning a multi-step build or migration into a controlled sequence with explicit checkpoints and validation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Phased planning and deliverables: Breaks work into numbered phases with clear outputs and dependency-aware parallelism.
  • Parallel scoped agent execution: Dispatches independent tasks to parallel agents with strict scope boundaries per phase.
  • Integration checkpoints with fail-fast fixes: Runs typecheck, tests, and build after each phase and blocks progression on failures.
  • Audit-friendly progress tracking: Writes plan and progress records into docs and requires a checkpoint commit per phase.

Quick Start

Ask the assistant to run the Phase Execution Skill for your project goal by first writing a phased plan (or using your provided one), then executing each phase with parallel scoped agents and integration checks, committing after every phase, and finally summarizing completed phases.

FAQPage Schema
How do I execute a complex build in safe phases with integration testing?

To execute a complex build in safe phases, structure work into numbered, checkpointed phases with parallel agent execution and integration verification. This blocks progression on failing tests or compilation, ensuring controlled advancement through each step.

What is phased execution for migration planning and refactoring?

Phased execution for migration planning breaks multi-step builds into a controlled sequence with explicit checkpoints and validation. It prevents messy, partially-complete changes by enforcing dependency-aware parallelism and mandatory checkpoint commits between phases.

How do parallel agents handle scoped file changes during build orchestration?

Parallel agents handle scoped file changes by dispatching independent tasks with strict scope boundaries per phase. This scoped file-change constraint ensures agents work concurrently without overwriting shared dependencies during build orchestration tasks.

Can I use docs-driven workflows to track audit checkpoints for refactoring?

You can use docs-driven workflows to track audit checkpoints by persisting plans and progress records in docs. This requires a checkpoint commit per phase, creating an audit-friendly progress tracking record for refactoring tasks.

What's the best way to prevent partially-complete changes during a migration?

The best way to prevent partially-complete changes during a migration is using fail-fast integration checks. Running typecheck, tests, and build after each phase blocks progression on failures, ensuring only validated phases advance to the next step.
