FAQPage Schema
How do I generate an implementation plan and execution manifest for software delivery?▼

Generate an implementation plan and execution manifest by defining work build waves and sessions, producing both human-readable documentation and machine-readable artifacts that conform to manifest schema requirements for PR workflows.

What is wave-based planning for organizing development sessions?▼

Wave-based planning organizes implementation sessions into serial and parallel execution groups, optimizing delivery by structuring work build phases that validate planning artifacts before review and deployment workflows.

How do I structure workspace documentation for cross-team implementation planning?▼

Structure workspace documentation by applying planning tasks across verticals, organizing waves and sessions with frontmatter requirements, and ensuring artifacts conform to the execution manifest schema for cross-team execution.

Can I use generated execution manifests with PR and deployment workflows?▼

Yes, execution manifests integrate with PR workflows by validating and structuring planning artifacts to conform to manifest schema and frontmatter requirements, streamlining review and deployment processes.

Do I need dependencies or specific components to create work build plans?▼

No dependencies or components are required to create work build plans; the planning process applies across verticals to organize waves and sessions, generating structured implementation plans and execution manifests independently.

What's the best way to validate planning artifacts before execution?▼

Validate planning artifacts by ensuring they conform to the manifest schema and frontmatter requirements, structuring wave and session documentation to integrate with PR workflows before deployment execution.
