What problem does it solve?

Keeps the colony's work organized by managing phases, dependencies, and backlog items so plans stay consistent as priorities change.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Add, remove, reorder, and insert roadmap phases with automatic renumbering and dependency updates.
  • Validate roadmap integrity, prevent orphaned or cyclic dependencies, and maintain backlog items in a 999.x namespace.
  • Generate phase state directories and update the central roadmap and history logs to reflect changes.

Quick Start

Use the roadmap-management skill to add a new phase to the colony roadmap and ensure dependencies update accordingly.

FAQPage Schema
How do I manage roadmap phases and dependencies without creating cyclic errors?▼

Roadmap management coordinates phases and dependencies by enforcing dependency integrity, automatically preventing orphaned or cyclic dependencies when you add, reorder, or insert phases into the colony roadmap.

What is the best way to reorder roadmap phases and update backlogs automatically?▼

Reordering roadmap phases triggers automatic renumbering and dependency updates, while backlog items are maintained in a 999.x namespace to keep plans consistent as priorities change.

Can I insert a new phase into an existing roadmap without breaking dependency integrity?▼

Yes, inserting a new phase into the colony roadmap automatically validates dependency integrity, updates the central roadmap, and records all changes in a history log.

Does roadmap management record phase changes for audit and history tracking?▼

Roadmap management records all phase changes and updates in .aether/data/roadmap-history.json, generating phase state directories to reflect structural changes for tracking and audit purposes.

How do I prevent orphaned dependencies when removing phases from a project roadmap?▼

Removing phases from the roadmap triggers automatic dependency validation to prevent orphaned or cyclic dependencies, ensuring the remaining backlog items and phases stay consistent.

What do I need to set up before managing colony project roadmaps and phase states?▼

Colony project roadmap management requires the central roadmap structure and the .aether/data/ directory to exist, as phase state directories and history logs are generated and updated there during changes.
