Can this skill be used for existing codebases?

Yes, it is highly effective for brownfield projects, as it identifies when a repo scan or architecture trace is required before a plan can be finalized.

Will this skill stop Claude from generating a plan if information is missing?

No, the goal is to ensure a plan is still produced. The skill localizes the gaps and creates a dependency graph that includes tasks to find the missing information.

What kind of inputs does the skill analyze?

It evaluates functional intent, scope boundaries, external interfaces (APIs/CLIs), technical constraints, system context, and verification expectations.

How does Planner RT-ICA differ from standard RT-ICA?

Standard RT-ICA is used during execution to block tasks with missing inputs. Planner RT-ICA runs during the planning phase to identify those gaps early and build 'unblock' tasks directly into the project plan.

Productivity & Workflow

Analyzes project requirements to identify missing inputs and dependencies without blocking the overall planning process.

Planner RT-ICA (Real-Time Input Completeness Analysis) is a specialized pre-pass skill designed for the project planning phase. It prevents the AI from inventing or 'hallucinating' requirements when faced with incomplete information. Instead of halting the planning process, it localizes uncertainty by identifying specific gaps, mapping them to affected tasks, and generating explicit unblock actions—such as discovery tasks or targeted questions for the user. This ensures a dependency-correct plan is produced where every 'known unknown' is surfaced, allowing for safe parallel development while critical gaps are addressed.

Key Features

05Localizes uncertainty to specific workstreams so unaffected tasks can proceed

06Prevents requirement fabrication by explicitly identifying missing constraints or interfaces

Use Cases

01Planning brownfield migrations where existing system architecture is partially unknown

02Decomposing complex features with ambiguous API contracts or undefined acceptance criteria

03Creating discovery-first roadmaps that prioritize information gathering before execution
