SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Wayfinder solves the issue of losing focus or momentum on large, multi-session projects by breaking down ambiguous goals into a structured, trackable map of actionable tickets.

Core Features & Use Cases

Shared Map Creation: Converts a high-level, foggy goal into a concrete index of decisions and tasks on your issue tracker.
Frontier Management: Automatically identifies the next logical steps (the frontier) while keeping blocked or out-of-scope work clearly separated.
Use Case: When starting a complex refactor or a multi-week research project, use this skill to chart the path, ensuring every agent session contributes to a specific, documented decision rather than drifting.

Quick Start

Invoke the wayfinder skill to begin charting a new map for the current project destination.

FAQPage Schema

How do I break down a complex project into trackable tasks across multiple sessions?▼

To break down a complex project into trackable tasks, you can decompose high-level objectives into linked issue-tracker tickets. This creates a shared map of actionable items, ensuring every agent session contributes to a specific, documented decision rather than drifting.

What is the best way to manage task dependencies and track the frontier of a multi-week research project?▼

Managing task dependencies and tracking the project frontier requires orchestrating tickets through systematic state transitions. This approach identifies the next logical steps while keeping blocked or out-of-scope work clearly separated from your active progress.

How do I start planning a complex refactor using task decomposition without losing momentum?▼

Planning a complex refactor with task decomposition involves converting a high-level, foggy goal into a concrete index of decisions and tasks on your issue tracker. Charting this path maintains momentum by mapping out resolved decisions against the remaining fog of war.

Do I need an issue tracker to manage agent orchestration for multi-session workflows?▼

Yes, you need a repository issue tracker to manage agent orchestration for multi-session workflows. Integration with an issue tracker is required to manage ticket dependencies, assignments, and state transitions effectively.

Can I use this approach to separate resolved decisions from remaining work during prototyping?▼

Yes, you can use this approach to separate resolved decisions from remaining work during prototyping. It maintains a clear boundary between documented decisions and the remaining fog of war, facilitating systematic progress through research and execution.
