planning

To break down a design document into TDD-sized tasks, decompose approved requirements into a sequenced set of implementation steps, identify dependencies, and mark parallelizable groups. This produces an executable plan document with explicit completion criteria.

Resolving task dependencies for a multi-file feature involves analyzing design requirements to determine execution order and highlighting parallelizable work. This minimizes integration risk and ensures repository-level TDD readiness.

Yes, you need approved design and requirements documents to generate an implementation plan. The planning process requires a design.md and requirements.md file to decompose features and determine the implementation order.

The implementation plan approval workflow dispatches automated reviewers, captures human confirmation for requirement selection, and iterates based on feedback. It continues refining the plan document until final human approval is achieved.

An executable plan document should include task listings with dependencies, parallelizable groups, explicit completion criteria, and risk notes. This prevents ad-hoc implementations by ensuring testable tasks and minimizing late surprises.
