Can I skip phases like testing or documentation?

No, the protocol is enforced via hooks. While phases can be minimal for very simple changes, every task must pass through the defined gates to ensure project integrity.

What is the 6-phase protocol in this skill?

The protocol is a mandatory sequence consisting of Explore, Plan, Code, Test, Fix, and Document phases designed to ensure quality and consistency in complex tasks.

Does this skill support multi-agent workflows?

Yes, it defines specific agent roles for each phase, such as the 'architect-supreme' for planning and 'security-scanner' for the testing phase.

How does the checkpointing system work?

Each phase transition creates a state checkpoint. If a task is interrupted, Claude can load the checkpoint to resume from the last valid phase without repeating completed work.

How does it handle documentation?

The final Document phase automates the updating of READMEs, creation of Architectural Decision Records (ADRs), and synchronization with Obsidian vaults.

Productivity & Workflow

Implements a mandatory six-phase protocol to systematically guide complex AI coding tasks from initial research through to final documentation.

Phase Management is a structural orchestration skill designed for complex development tasks using Claude Code. It enforces a rigorous six-phase lifecycle—Explore, Plan, Code, Test, Fix, and Document—ensuring that every project follows a standardized workflow with specific quality gates and exit criteria. By utilizing specialized agents for each phase and requiring mandatory checkpoints, this skill minimizes architectural errors, improves code quality, and ensures comprehensive knowledge transfer through automated documentation and Obsidian vault synchronization.
