SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

πŸ’‘ This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? When an approved project plan needs to change mid-run β€” scope grows, priorities shift, or a task becomes obsolete β€” this Skill authors a formal amendment document and applies it safely, without ever mutating the plan without explicit operator approval. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Amendment authoring and validation: Drafts an amendment document grounded against the current working tree, validates it via the radorch CLI, and applies it only after explicit approval. - Corrective routing at the final-approval gate: Distinguishes a small corrective fix from a full plan amendment when a project is parked at final review, signaling the pipeline accordingly. - Independent audit pass: Optionally dispatches a subagent to audit the amendment against the Master Plan across accuracy, consistency, coherence, and completeness lenses. - Use Case: A project mid-execution needs a new phase for an integration the original plan missed. Run the skill to scope the change, author the amendment, audit it, and apply it β€” reopening only what must re-run. ## Quick Start Run /rad-amend with your project name to amend its approved plan, for example by asking to add a new phase to the project.

FAQPage Schema
How do I amend an approved project plan mid-run?β–Ό

Invoke /rad-amend with the project name. The skill checks pipeline state, discusses the change's cost with you, authors an amendment document grounded in the current working tree, validates it, and applies it only after your explicit approval.

What is the difference between a corrective and an amendment?β–Ό

A corrective applies only at the final-approval gate when a fix is well-specified, converges in a few rounds, and needs only code review. Anything requiring planning, broader scope, or re-judging the whole delivery routes to a full plan amendment instead.

Can an amendment be applied without operator approval?β–Ό

No. The skill never applies an amendment without explicit approval. It presents the validation report in plain consequence language β€” what is added, revised, dropped, and reopened β€” and waits for a clear yes before running the apply command.

What happens if amendment validation fails?β–Ό

The skill fixes the document inline and re-validates, up to three attempts. On the third failure it stops looping and surfaces the structured error detail. Blocked or halted nodes are relayed to the operator and the flow stops.

When should I choose the audit pass for an amendment?β–Ό

Choose a full audit for new phases or several touched tasks; skip it for small low-stakes changes. The Auto option decides based on how much the amendment adds, dispatching an independent subagent to check accuracy, consistency, coherence, and completeness.
