SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Reviews implementation plans to identify logical gaps, missing steps, and risky assumptions before coding.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Fresh Eyes review pass to detect conceptual errors, missing steps, and misaligned dependencies.
  • Multi-pass refinement to improve plan quality and robustness.
  • In-place fixes and explicit documentation of changes to streamline execution.

Quick Start

Run /plan-review after creating a plan file to trigger a fresh-eyes assessment.

FAQPage Schema
How do I review an implementation plan to catch logical gaps before coding starts?

To review an implementation plan effectively, run a fresh-eyes assessment pass to detect conceptual errors, missing steps, and misaligned dependencies before development begins. This multi-pass refinement process tags issues by severity and applies in-place fixes with clear documentation of changes.

What is plan validation and how does it improve software project planning?

Plan validation is the process of reviewing implementation plans to identify risky assumptions and missing steps before coding. It improves project planning by iteratively refining plan quality and robustness, ensuring logical gaps are addressed early through scoped analysis and explicit change documentation.

Can I run multiple review passes to refine my implementation plan?

Yes, you can run iterative multi-pass refinement on your implementation plan to progressively improve quality and robustness. Each pass performs a fresh-eyes assessment to catch remaining conceptual errors, missing steps, and misaligned dependencies until the plan is solid.

How do I assess risk and tag issues by severity in a project plan?

You assess risk in a project plan by running a scoped analysis that identifies risky assumptions and tags each issue by severity level. This process applies in-place fixes and documents all changes clearly, streamlining execution of the refined plan.

Does plan review work with diverse plan formats in software development?

Plan review supports diverse plan formats across software development and project planning contexts. It performs scoped analysis to identify logical gaps, missing steps, and risky assumptions regardless of the specific plan document structure you use.

What's the best way to document changes when fixing flaws in an implementation plan?

The best way to document changes during plan review is to apply in-place fixes with explicit documentation of every modification made. This approach tags issues by severity and ensures all changes are clearly recorded to streamline downstream execution.
