FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a step-by-step plan for adding a new feature to my codebase?▼

To generate a feature development plan, this Skill interviews you about requirements, explores your codebase for existing patterns, and outputs a detailed, executable step-by-step blueprint file for an executor agent to follow.

What is the best way to create an executable blueprint for an AI agent to implement a codebase refactor?▼

Creating an executable blueprint for an AI agent involves analyzing your codebase structure and translating refactor requirements into fine-grained, verifiable steps that adhere to existing project patterns, which this Skill automates by producing a detailed plan file.

Can I use this feature planning approach for complex projects that require minimal human oversight?▼

Yes, you can use this feature planning approach for complex projects because it automates the creation of detailed, step-by-step plans that ensure significant changes can be executed by an AI agent with minimal human oversight.

How does codebase reconnaissance work when planning new software features?▼

Codebase reconnaissance works by using subagents to explore and understand your existing code patterns and structures, ensuring the generated feature plan integrates seamlessly with your current project architecture.

Do I need an existing codebase to use this automated feature planning process?▼

Yes, you need an existing codebase because the planning process relies on exploring your current code patterns and structures to ensure the generated step-by-step plan adheres to established project conventions.
