What problem does it solve?
It resolves or creates an issue and turns a high-level intent into IDD-aware planning artifacts while preparing a ready-to-execute branch and task graph without implementing code.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Issue-to-planning workflow: Resolves an existing issue or creates a new one, then derives planning context from it.
- IDD-compliant planning artifacts: Produces specification, verification, and a granular dependency-ordered task graph using IDD principles.
- Branch preparation for execution: Creates and pushes a feature branch before writing planning artifacts so implementation starts from the correct branch.
- Approval gate with safety checks: Uses a checkpoint approval step (Tether/Vanish) and includes recovery paths for common failure conditions.
Example use case: You type an intent like “Add OAuth login” (or reference an issue number), and you receive spec.md, verify.md, tasks.md, plus a branch and task graph that a developer can start immediately.
Quick Start
Run start-feature-planning with your intent or issue number so it creates/updates the issue, generates IDD-aware planning artifacts, creates the feature branch, and stops before implementation.
