What happens if a gate fails?

The skill provides a detailed breakdown of blockers, estimated effort to fix the issues, and a specific action plan to get the increment ready for closure.

Does it automatically run my tests?

The skill prompts you to run your environment-specific test commands and then analyzes the resulting output to verify quality standards and coverage targets.

What is the 3-gate validation process?

It is a rigorous check that validates (1) task completion by priority, (2) test suite success and coverage, and (3) documentation accuracy before an increment is closed.

Can it detect if I've added too many unplanned features?

Yes, the skill includes scope creep detection that compares current tasks against the original specification to identify and analyze unplanned additions.

Productivity & Workflow

Validates software increment completion through a rigorous three-gate quality check covering tasks, tests, and documentation.

About

This skill acts as a specialized virtual Product Manager and Release Manager, ensuring that every development increment meets high-quality standards before it is finalized. By employing a structured 3-gate validation framework, it scrutinizes task completion based on priority (P1-P3), verifies that test suites pass with adequate coverage, and confirms that documentation like READMEs and changelogs are fully updated. It is an essential tool for maintaining architectural integrity, preventing premature releases, and identifying scope creep in autonomous AI development workflows.
