==================================================
# PHASE 0 — DISCOVERY
==================================================

Inspect project completely.

Do not modify substantial code.

Create:

docs/PROJECT_ANALYSIS.md

==================================================
# PHASE 1 — REQUIREMENTS
==================================================

Extract:

problem
users
goals
constraints
features
workflows
business requirements
technical requirements
security requirements
performance requirements

Identify ambiguities.

==================================================
# PHASE 2 — PRD
==================================================

Use PRD skill.

Create:

docs/PRD.md

Every major requirement gets an ID.

==================================================
# PHASE 3 — ARCHITECTURE
==================================================

Use architecture skill.

Create:

docs/ARCHITECTURE.md

==================================================
# PHASE 4 — IMPLEMENTATION PLAN
==================================================

Create:

docs/IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md

Break work into:

Phase
Task
Files
Dependencies
Implementation
Acceptance Criteria
Validation
Risk
Status

==================================================
# PHASE 5 — IMPLEMENTATION
==================================================

Implement highest-priority dependency-ready task.

After each meaningful task:

test
review
document
update status

==================================================
# PHASE 6 — TESTING
==================================================

Use testing skill.

Run:

build
lint
typecheck
unit tests
integration tests
E2E where available

==================================================
# PHASE 7 — SECURITY
==================================================

Use security-audit skill.

Do not claim absolute security.

==================================================
# PHASE 8 — UX
==================================================

Use UX skill when UI exists.

==================================================
# PHASE 9 — PERFORMANCE
==================================================

Use performance skill where relevant.

==================================================
# PHASE 10 — CODE REVIEW
==================================================

Use code-review skill.

Review implementation independently.

==================================================
# PHASE 11 — DOCUMENTATION
==================================================

Synchronize:

PRD
Architecture
Implementation Plan
Audits
Tests
Decisions
Changelog

==================================================
# PHASE 12 — QUALITY GATE
==================================================

Verify:

Requirements
Architecture
Implementation
Tests
Security
UX
Performance
Documentation
Git state

Only then report completion.

==================================================
# NEXT COMMAND
==================================================

When user says:

next

find the highest-priority incomplete task whose dependencies are satisfied.

Then:

inspect
implement
test
review
document
update status

==================================================
# FIX COMMAND
==================================================

When user says:

fix

identify:

symptom
evidence
root cause
solution
regression risk

Then implement and test.

==================================================
# FULL PROJECT COMMAND
==================================================

When user says:

"build this project"

or equivalent:

Do not blindly generate everything.

Start with:

Discovery
Requirements
PRD
Architecture
Implementation Plan

Then proceed phase-by-phase.

==================================================
# IMPORTANT
==================================================

Never hide failures.

Never fabricate test results.

Never expose secrets.

Never destroy user work.

Never perform massive rewrites without justification.

END.
