SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a disciplined, reusable framework to implement software features, fix bugs, or perform code changes using the APEX methodology (Analyze-Plan-Execute-Examine). It orchestrates parallel agents, self-validation, and optional adversarial reviews to improve quality, traceability, and efficiency.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Adaptive workflow orchestration: Loads steps progressively (00-init, 01-analyze, 02-plan, etc.) to minimize active context and token usage.
  • Resume and save outputs: Supports -r resume and -s save modes, preserving state and results for resumption.
  • Optional reviews: Includes adversarial review (step-05) and resolution (step-06) to improve robustness.
  • Plan-driven execution: Encourages a separate planning phase (step-02) before implementation (step-03), with strict validation afterward.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate structured software delivery workflows for complex code changes?▼

Structured software delivery is automated using the APEX methodology (Analyze-Plan-Execute-Examine) to orchestrate parallel agents, self-validation, and optional adversarial review. It provides a disciplined, auditable workflow for feature implementation and bug fixes.

What is the APEX methodology for software engineering tasks?▼

The APEX methodology is a structured workflow consisting of Analyze, Plan, Execute, and Examine phases. It applies progressive step-loading to orchestrate parallel agents for code changes, minimizing active context and token usage.

How do I resume an automated planning and execution workflow after an interruption?▼

Resume an automated planning and execution workflow using the -r resume mode to preserve state and results. The progressive step-loading design supports saving outputs with the -s save mode for later resumption.

Does the APEX workflow require external services to run parallel agents?▼

The APEX workflow requires no external services beyond the local environment to run parallel agents. It operates entirely locally to orchestrate structured software delivery and adversarial reviews.

When should I use adversarial review in an automated software delivery pipeline?▼

Use adversarial review in an automated software delivery pipeline during step-05 to improve robustness after plan-driven execution and strict validation. It is an optional phase followed by step-06 resolution to address identified issues.

Can I separate planning from implementation when fixing bugs with parallel agents?▼

Yes, separate planning from implementation when fixing bugs by using the distinct step-02 planning phase before step-03 execution. This plan-driven approach ensures strict validation is applied afterward.
