writing-plans

To generate an implementation plan from a feature spec, you provide the feature requirements to get a structured document with required files, tests, documentation, and verification steps. This ensures developers with zero codebase context can execute tasks.

The best way to break down multi-step software tasks into bite-sized commits is creating an end-to-end plan enforcing DRY and YAGNI principles. This guides tests, code, docs, and frequent commits for maintainable handoffs.

TDD fits into implementation plans by enforcing test-driven development practices within the generated task breakdown. The plan structures bite-sized tasks to guide tests, code, and documentation sequentially across the codebase.

Yes, you can save generated implementation plans to a predictable location within your repository. Plans are saved as markdown files in the docs/plans directory using a YYYY-MM-DD-feature-name format for traceability and reuse.

Yes, an implementation plan document needs a specific header and task structure to satisfy formatting requirements. It uses a plan document header and breaks down work into bite-sized tasks detailing required files and verification steps.
