update-implementation-plan
Update implementation plan files with new requirements for features, refactoring, or infrastructure changes.
What it does
- Generate implementation plans that are fully executable by AI agents or humans
- Use deterministic language with zero ambiguity
- Structure all content for automated parsing and execution
- Ensure complete self-containment with no external dependencies for understanding
- Each phase must have measurable completion criteria
- Tasks within phases must be executable in parallel unless dependencies are specified
- All task descriptions must include specific file paths, function names, and exact implementation details
Requirements & configuration
- No task should require human interpretation or decision-making
- [List any dependencies that need to be addressed, such as libraries, frameworks, or other components that the plan relies on.]
- [List the tests that need to be implemented to verify the feature or refactoring task.]
