SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Plan management codifies a repeatable process for organizing work, aligning stakeholders, and tracking progress through structured plans.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Plan Template: Use a consistent template to document goals, scope, status, owners, and milestones.
  • Directory Structure: Enforce a stable plans/ layout (plans/model, plans/visuals, plans/gameplay, plans/tooling, plans/testing, plans/bugfixes, plans/world, plans/reference, plans/archive).
  • Numbering Convention: Apply increments of 10 to allow inserting related plans without renumbering.
  • Governance & Updates: Standard procedures for updating plans after implementation and for archiving obsolete plans.

Quick Start

Create a new plan using the Plan Template under plans/ and assign an initial status.

FAQPage Schema
How do I standardize project plans using a consistent template and directory structure?

Plan management standardizes project plans by applying a reusable plan template for goals and milestones while enforcing a stable plans/ directory layout to align stakeholders and track progress consistently.

What numbering convention should I use for project roadmaps to avoid renumbering?

Use increments of 10 for numbering project roadmaps and plan artifacts. This convention allows you to easily insert related plans between existing ones later without forcing a full renumbering of the directory structure.

How do I organize bug tracking and feature roadmaps within a plans directory?

Organize bug tracking and feature roadmaps by placing artifacts into specialized directories like plans/bugfixes and plans/gameplay. This enforces a stable layout that separates concerns and standardizes planning practices.

What is the best way to manage plan governance and archive obsolete project plans?

Manage plan governance by following standard procedures for updating plans after implementation and moving obsolete artifacts to a plans/archive directory, ensuring your active workspace remains stable and current.

Does this plan management approach require any specific dependencies or components to function?

No, this plan management approach requires no external dependencies or components. It applies standardized planning conventions and templates directly to your plan artifacts using a simple directory structure and numbering rules.
