What problem does it solve?
Walking Skeleton methods enforce early integration checks by using thin stubs that traverse the full flow, surfacing integration risks before real logic is implemented.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Enforces skeleton-phase discipline so no business logic is committed during early stages.
- Uses Flesh phases to gradually replace stubs with real implementations while preserving green end-to-end tests.
- Provides changelog-driven phase transitions and guardrails to ensure safe rollbacks and traceability.
Quick Start
Initialize the Skeleton Phase, then progressively replace stubs with fleshed-out implementations while keeping end-to-end tests green.
