SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Splits large research documents into a set of implementation plans with bounded complexity.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Analyze research documents to extract tasks and dependencies.
  • Group tasks into plans with a maximum complexity of 5 points, preserving prerequisites order.
  • Create GitHub issues for each generated plan and track progress automatically.
  • Idempotent re-run: detects existing plan files and existing issues, avoiding duplicates.

Quick Start

Supply a research file path to split into plans, for example /workflows:plan-split research/my-feature.md.

FAQPage Schema
How do I split a large research document into dependency-ordered implementation plans?

To split research documents into dependency-ordered implementation plans, you supply the research file path to the workflow. It analyzes the document to extract tasks, groups them by dependencies, and enforces a maximum complexity of 5 points per plan.

What is the maximum complexity limit for a generated implementation plan?

The maximum complexity limit for a generated implementation plan is 5 points. The tool groups tasks into bounded plans that preserve prerequisites order, ensuring no single plan exceeds this complexity threshold during the split.

Can I automatically create GitHub issues from an implementation plan?

Yes, you can automatically create GitHub issues from an implementation plan. The workflow generates a GitHub issue for each plan it creates from the research document and tracks progress automatically without manual entry.

Does re-running the plan generation workflow create duplicate GitHub issues?

Re-running the plan generation workflow does not create duplicate GitHub issues. It supports idempotent re-running by detecting existing plan files and existing GitHub issues, avoiding duplicates on subsequent executions.

Do I need to manually define task dependencies before splitting a research document?

You do not need to manually define task dependencies before splitting a research document. The workflow analyzes the research document to automatically extract tasks and dependencies, grouping them into implementation plans while preserving prerequisites order.

What is the best way to manage bounded complexity when planning software engineering tasks?

The best way to manage bounded complexity when planning software engineering tasks is using a workflow that splits research into plans with a maximum complexity of 5 points. This enforces bounded complexity per plan while preserving the dependency order of prerequisites.
