What problem does it solve? Large engineering efforts that span three or more dependent phases lack durable structure: plans get lost across sessions, validation gates get skipped, and long-running autonomous agents lose track of the program goal. This Skill scaffolds the complete kickoff artifact set for a multi-phase program so work survives compaction and session boundaries. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Umbrella plan generation: Creates an orchestration plan with a Program Goal Charter, Stable Program Goal block (under 4000 characters), phase ordering, and status tables. - Per-phase plan stubs: Generates one flat phase plan per phase with entry/exit gates, blast radius, checklists, and a 7-step inner loop tracker (R → I → P → PVL → E → EVL → UP). - Validation scripts: Ships validate-phase-stub.mjs and validate-umbrella-artifact.mjs to enforce required sections, frontmatter, and the 4000-character goal limit. - Use Case: When a request naturally breaks into 3+ dependent phases (e.g., building an E2E testing system across web, API, and database layers), invoke this Skill to produce the feature folder, umbrella plan, phase stubs, and a copy-pasteable session-goal block for autonomous execution. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to generate a phase program for your multi-phase initiative, providing the program name and goal description, then approve the kickoff recommendation before artifacts are created.
