SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Plan-driven orchestration for software initiatives by turning user requests into structured, executable plans that cover analysis, risks, tests, and tasks.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Generates plan files under plans/ with YAML frontmatter and a clear task breakdown.
  • Supports codebase analysis, file trees, risk assessment, tests, and detailed todos.
  • Facilitates multi-agent collaboration by mapping responsibilities and dependencies.

Quick Start

Provide your feature request and the planner will generate a detailed plan in plans/ following the defined template.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate structured project plans for software engineering tasks?

To generate structured project plans, provide your feature request or refactor requirement. The planner produces plan files under a plans/ directory with YAML frontmatter, detailing code analysis, risk assessment, tests, and task breakdowns.

What is task decomposition in multi-stage software development workflows?

Task decomposition breaks complex software initiatives into structured, executable tasks. It maps responsibilities and dependencies for multi-agent collaboration, supporting parallel execution across teams.

Can I use a plan file to coordinate multi-agent collaboration and codebase analysis?

Yes, plan files facilitate multi-agent collaboration by mapping responsibilities and dependencies. They include codebase analysis, file tree structures, and detailed task definitions to guide orchestrated development efforts.

Does this project management approach support parallel task generation without dependencies?

Yes, the task generation process supports dependency-free and parallel tasks. It enforces a frontmatter-driven plan format with a consistent naming convention to map independent execution paths.

What's the best way to document risk assessment and tests for refactoring efforts?

Documenting risk assessment and tests for refactoring is best handled by generating a structured plan file. These files integrate risk evaluation and test definitions directly into the task breakdown.
