What problem does it solve?

AI-assisted software development often struggles with lost context, inconsistent structure, outdated plans, and loss of control. This skill provides a structured, plan-driven workflow to maintain context, ensure consistency, and enable safe amendments across complex, multi-session development efforts.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Context Preservation: Stores planning and progress in structured documents (feature-plan.md, feature-tasklist.md) to prevent context loss between sessions, ensuring the AI remembers architectural rationale and design decisions.
• Structured Development: Enforces a phase-based implementation with clear goals, deliverables, and checkpoints, ensuring consistent quality, review opportunities, and human control over the process.
• Safe Plan Amendment: Provides a controlled process to update plans and tasklists when requirements change, preventing erroneous implementations and ensuring the AI's knowledge of the project remains accurate.
• Use Case: When building a complex feature that spans multiple days or requires careful review, use this skill to guide Claude through planning, phased implementation, and safe adjustments, ensuring a high-quality, reviewable outcome.
