SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Planning complex phases often requires coordinating multiple stakeholders, research, and verification steps. This skill provides a lean orchestration layer that generates phase plans, delegates work to subagents, and ensures traceable progress.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Phase planning: generate detailed, executable plans that define tasks, milestones, and success criteria.
  • Research delegation: spawn subagents to perform targeted research and return structured results.
  • Validation workflow: run plan checks, support revision loops, and surface blockers for user decisions.
  • Lifecycle management: update ROADMAP.md and STATE.md to reflect plan status and progress.
  • Reuse & templates: leverage phase templates to standardize planning across phases.

Quick Start

Plan Phase 3 by invoking /dev:plan 3 using the current ROADMAP and REQUIREMENTS files.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create an executable project phase plan with defined milestones?

To create an executable project phase plan, generate a PLAN.md file defining tasks, milestones, and success criteria. The planning process spans research, dependency analysis, and validation to ensure readiness for build.

What is the best way to coordinate research and verification steps for complex planning?

The best way to coordinate complex planning is using an orchestration layer that delegates targeted research to subagents and runs validation workflows. This approach supports revision loops and surfaces blockers for user decisions.

How do I track project lifecycle status and roadmap progress automatically?

Track project lifecycle status by automatically updating ROADMAP.md and STATE.md files. This lifecycle management mechanism reflects plan status and progress while ensuring traceable updates across project phases.

Does phase planning work with existing roadmap and requirements files?

Phase planning works directly with existing ROADMAP and REQUIREMENTS files. You invoke the planning process using your current files to generate detailed plans, run validation checks, and update lifecycle documents.

Can I standardize planning across multiple project phases using templates?

You can standardize planning across multiple project phases by leveraging phase templates. This reuse mechanism enforces frontmatter-driven metadata and generates consistent PLAN.md files for every phase.
