project-seeding

First-principles project planning structures a goal by establishing true facts in a forward pass, then decomposing the goal backward into actionable tasks. This generates foundational documents to ensure all necessary components are accounted for before development.

The two-pass methodology works by first generating a forward pass to establish true facts and foundational documents, then executing a backward pass to decompose goals into plans and reconcile them with the project architecture.

Generate comprehensive project planning documentation by running a structured seeding process that produces FOUNDATIONS.md, LANDSCAPE.md, PLAN.md, and RECONCILIATION.md, suitable for both greenfield and existing brownfield codebases.

Yes, the project seeding methodology is suitable for brownfield projects with an existing codebase as well as greenfield initiatives. It requires human review and iterative planning to reconcile new plans with existing foundations.

To decompose project goals into actionable tasks, you need foundational and landscape documents to establish facts, followed by a plan document and a reconciliation document to align the decomposed tasks with the project architecture.

You should not rely solely on automated project seeding without human review. The methodology requires iterative planning and human oversight to validate the generated architectural foundations and reconciled plans against real-world constraints.
