SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps teams break down discovered work into serial milestones, enabling controlled progress, reviewability, and traceability in Hypo-Workflow's planning phase.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Decompose discovered work into serial milestones with defined goals, scope, tests, and expected artifacts.
  • Generate clear technical routes, research requirements, risks and alternatives for each milestone.
  • Use case: When planning a complex feature, run plan-decompose to produce a milestone-based plan that supports audit and review.

Quick Start

Provide the project context and design summary, then trigger the plan-decompose workflow to generate milestone-level plan artifacts.

FAQPage Schema
How do I decompose discovered project work into serial milestones for auditing?

To decompose work into serial milestones, you provide a defined project design summary to generate a reviewable delivery plan. This produces explicit milestone structures, including goals, scope, testing specs, and technical routes for traceability.

What is milestone-based planning and when do I need it for complex features?

Milestone-based planning splits discovered work into serial phases to ensure controlled progress and traceability. You need it when a project has a defined design summary and requires reviewable delivery plans with clear validation and audit focus.

How to generate a delivery plan with technical routes and risk validation?

You generate a delivery plan by triggering the decomposition workflow with your project context. It outputs structured milestones featuring defined expected artifacts, research requirements, technical routes, risks, alternatives, and validation specifications.

Do I need a complete design summary before starting milestone planning?

Yes, milestone planning requires a defined design summary as input. The decomposition process relies on this existing project context to accurately split work and generate structured, reviewable milestone-level plan artifacts.

What is the best way to structure project milestones for reviewability?

The best way to structure milestones for reviewability is to decompose work serially with explicit goals, scope, testing specs, and audit focus. This ensures each delivery phase provides structured outputs and safe defaults for cross-cycle traceability.

What limitations exist when decomposing work into serial milestones?

A key limitation is its reliance on a pre-existing design summary; without discovered work and defined context, serial milestone decomposition cannot produce reviewable delivery plans. It is specifically structured for explicit milestone planning and auditing.
