What happens after the manifest is generated?

The skill provides a summary table and asks the user to either proceed to orchestration, edit the manifest, or stop. If proceeding, it hands off to the parallel-orchestrate sub-skill.

What is a parallel orchestration manifest?

It is a YAML configuration file that defines a project's tasks, their specific descriptions, file dependencies, and target directories, allowing AI agents to execute work in parallel.

Can it determine where tests should be located?

Yes, it scans your 'Do' and 'Verify' bullets for file paths containing 'test' or 'tests' to automatically infer the correct test directory for each task.

How does the skill handle missing dependency markers?

If explicit markers are missing, the skill performs an implicit analysis by checking if one task references or imports files that another task is responsible for creating.

Converts Markdown implementation plans into structured YAML manifests for parallel agent orchestration.

The Plan to Manifest skill bridges the gap between high-level planning and automated execution within Claude Code. By parsing Markdown implementation plans, it automatically generates standardized YAML manifests that define task descriptions, dependencies, and directory structures. It features intelligent dependency detection through file-reference analysis and automatic directory inference, ensuring that complex, multi-part projects are ready for parallel processing by agent swarms with minimal manual configuration.
