Where are the actual coding standards and patterns defined?

Coding standards reside in Domain Skills (Layer 4). These are selected during the outline phase based on the module's profile and are loaded during the execution phase.

Can I override core workflow phases like 'init' or 'plan'?

No, Phase Skills (Layer 1) are system-controlled to ensure orchestration reliability. However, you can customize the behavior within those phases using Profile Skills and Extensions.

How does the resolution mechanism work if a domain skill is missing?

The system uses a 'resolve-workflow-skill' command that looks for domain-specific overrides in the configuration; if none are found, it automatically falls back to the system-default skill.

What is the difference between a Profile Skill and an Extension?

Profile Skills are replacements; a domain can provide its own version of 'implementation' to replace the system default. Extensions are additive; they provide additional domain-specific knowledge that system skills load and use.

Productivity & Workflow

Defines and manages extension points for customizing AI orchestration workflows through domain-specific overrides and logic.

The Workflow Extension API provides the essential framework for tailoring the Plan Marshall orchestration layer to specific technology stacks and project requirements. It establishes a structured four-layer architecture that separates system-controlled phases from customizable domain logic, allowing developers to inject specialized knowledge into codebase analysis, task implementation, and error triage. By providing clear contracts for profile overrides and additive extensions, this skill ensures that Claude Code remains consistent with project-specific standards while maintaining a reliable and predictable execution flow.
