Can I use the dev skill for architectural planning?

Yes, the --design flag specifically focuses on generating architecture documentation and ERD diagrams before any code is written, ensuring a solid foundation.

What is the main purpose of the /dev skill?

It provides a structured framework to manage the entire development process—from initial brainstorming and PRDs to final code implementation—ensuring quality and consistency.

How does it track project progress?

It maintains a worktree.json for task status and a ROADMAP.md for high-level phase tracking, allowing you to see exactly what is pending, in-progress, or completed.

What are Checkpoints in this skill?

Checkpoints are categorized user-intervention points (human-verify, decision, or human-action) that ensure the AI doesn't proceed without necessary guidance or approval on critical items.

How does the --build command handle complex tasks?

The --build command uses a TDD (Test-Driven Development) approach and can execute independent tasks in parallel 'waves' to speed up the implementation process.

Productivity & Workflow

Orchestrates the full software development lifecycle from planning and architectural design to automated TDD builds.

The dev skill serves as a comprehensive Code Assurance Layer (CAL) for AI-driven development within Claude Code. it manages the entire engineering cycle by breaking down complex feature requests into structured phases: Plan (PRDs), Design (Architecture/ERDs), Tasks (Decomposition), and Build (TDD Implementation). By utilizing specialized subagents and parallel execution 'waves', it ensures that code is not just written, but architecturally sound, thoroughly tested, and documented with clear progress tracking through roadmaps and worktree states.
