Step 00: Onboarding & Context Validation

Intro

This step aligns all stakeholders by ingesting and validating critical inputs from the PDM.

Product Concept

We translate the product vision into a solid technical foundation and delivery plan.

Actions

I ingest and validate PDM inputs and your technical constraints for alignment.

Deliverables

This step delivers a validated set of inputs and a clear session context, forming the foundation for the build.

Step 01: Foundational Technical Architecture

Intro

We create the foundational Technical Architecture Document (TAD) as the system's blueprint.

Product Concept

We design a resilient and adaptable system using modern architectural patterns.

Actions

I create architectural diagrams and document key decisions in ADRs based on your requirements.

Deliverables

This step delivers a comprehensive TAD, the master blueprint for development.

Step 02: Analyze Architectural Changes

Intro

We analyze how new features impact the existing architecture for seamless integration.

Product Concept

We design an incremental evolution path that minimizes risk while adapting the architecture.

Actions

I identify architectural gaps and design an incremental plan for necessary changes.

Deliverables

This step delivers a clear analysis of architectural changes and a non-disruptive implementation plan.

Step 03: Generate Detailed Technical Design

Intro

We create a detailed Technical Design Document (TDD) with component-level specifications for coders.

Product Concept

We design a modular and maintainable system by defining APIs, data models, and testing strategies.

Actions

I design detailed components for each EPIC and compile them into the TDD.

Deliverables

This step delivers a complete TDD, a component-level blueprint ready for implementation.

Step 04: Deep EPIC Analysis

Intro

We analyze EPICs to map dependencies, define the critical path, and enable parallel work.

Product Concept

We apply systems analysis to optimize the development sequence based on EPIC dependencies.

Actions

I map all EPIC dependencies to define the critical path and identify parallel work streams.

Deliverables

This step delivers a dependency map and an optimized, parallel-friendly development plan.

Step 05: Comprehensive Task Breakdown

Intro

We break down EPICs into small, estimated tasks for both agentic coders and humans.

Product Concept

We create small, automated tasks for agentic coders to free up human developers for strategic work.

Actions

I decompose EPICs into sequenced, estimated tasks, identifying if they are for agents or humans.

Deliverables

This step delivers a detailed and actionable task breakdown for the entire roadmap.

Step 06: Pre-Build Validation & Gap Analysis

Intro

We perform a final validation of all specifications to ensure build readiness.

Product Concept

We cross-reference all documents to find and fix inconsistencies before coding begins.

Actions

I validate all documentation for completeness and consistency, reporting any gaps found.

Deliverables

This step delivers a validation report assessing project readiness and recommending fixes for any gaps.

Step 07: Generate Comprehensive Build Prompts

Intro

We generate the final, executable build prompts for the agentic coders.

Product Concept

We create self-contained prompts that enable flawless, autonomous execution by agentic coders.

Actions

I generate a context-rich build prompt for each agentic task and batch them for efficiency.

Deliverables

This step delivers a full set of build prompts for rapid and precise product development.

Step 08: Generate CIM Memory Bank & Differential Prompts

Intro

We create the initial CIM memory bank and the prompts needed to maintain it.

Product Concept

We establish a dynamic memory bank as the single source of truth for the codebase.

Actions

I generate all CIM memory bank content and the prompts required to set it up and keep it current.

Deliverables

This step delivers a complete, maintainable knowledge base for your project.

Step 09: Create Operator Manuals

Intro

We create clear operator manuals for both humans and agents executing the build.

Product Concept

We produce actionable manuals to ensure confident and consistent build execution by anyone.

Actions

I create a manual for human tasks and a scripted guide for agentic tasks.

Deliverables

This step delivers a complete set of manuals for smooth and efficient build execution.

Step 10: Support Build Execution

Intro

I provide real-time support and fixes during the build to ensure its success.

Product Concept

We use a CI/CD feedback loop to monitor builds and generate fixes instantly.

Actions

I monitor the build, diagnose errors, and provide immediate fix prompts.

Deliverables

This step delivers a production-ready codebase, built through a highly automated and quality-controlled process.

Step 11: Generate Post-Deployment Tasks

Intro

We generate post-deployment tasks for a smooth and successful production launch.

Product Concept

We create procedures to ensure the system remains healthy and reliable in production.

Actions

I generate post-deployment prompts and a verification checklist to ensure system integrity.

Deliverables

This step delivers a clear plan and checklist for a successful product launch.

Step 12: Executive Summary of Successful Deployment

Intro

We create an executive summary highlighting the business value of the successful deployment.

Product Concept

We craft a compelling, data-driven success story for stakeholders.

Actions

I synthesize key metrics into a success story suitable for executive review.

Deliverables

This step delivers a powerful summary to communicate the project's value to stakeholders.

Step 13: Celebrate Achievements & Guide Next Steps

Intro

We celebrate our success and outline the next steps in your journey.

Product Concept

We complete the final handoff, preparing you for your next development stage.

Actions

I celebrate our shared success and provide clear guidance for what comes next.

Deliverables

This step delivers a clear path forward, leaving you with build-ready prompts and defined next steps.

Conclusion

Conclusion

Integration Assessment

We successfully transformed a design into build prompts for a scalable system.

Case Study Conclusion

The user now has executable build prompts and can confidently delegate the build to agentic coders.
