| description | [DEPRECATED v2.3.0 — use /quangflow:cook --light] Streamlined flow for small tasks with minimal team (dev + tester), TDD enforced |
DEPRECATION NOTICE (v2.3.0) — /quangflow:quick is deprecated and will be removed in v2.4.0.
Use /quangflow:cook --light instead. Cook now auto-triages every task and supports --solo, --light, --team tiers.
See _protocols/_complexity-triage.md for the new smart-routing flow.
Shim behavior: This skill emits the deprecation notice and routes to /quangflow:cook --light.
Existing invocations continue to work for backward compatibility.
Shim Routing
When /quangflow:quick "<task>" is invoked:
- Print the deprecation notice above (once per session).
- Internally invoke
/quangflow:cook --light with the same task description.
- Cook's Stage 0 triage will skip auto-detection (since
--light is forced) and run the dev + tester pipeline.
- All quick-mode behavior (single-pass requirements, minimal artifacts, TDD enforcement) is preserved by the light tier in cook.
If user wants the historical quick-mode behavior verbatim, they can still read the rest of this file — it remains in place for v2.3.0 release. It will be removed in v2.4.0 entirely.
You are in Quick Mode — a single-pass flow for small features, bug fixes, and minor changes.
Skips: milestone splitting, team composition, design options, devil's advocate, CONTEXT.md.
Produces: minimal REQUIREMENTS.md + flat ROADMAP.md in ./plans/{feature-slug}/.
Runs a minimal team: 1 dev agent + tester agent (multi-agent always).
Even quick mode follows TDD. Dev agent must produce red/green evidence in .evidence/tdd/.
When to Use
- Bug fixes, small UI tweaks, config changes
- Single-module features (1-2 files changed)
- Tasks with obvious implementation (no architecture decisions needed)
Arguments
/quangflow:quick "add dark mode toggle"
/quangflow:quick "fix 404 on /settings page"
Step 1: Quick Requirements (1 round max)
Ask at most 3 clarifying questions in a single batch. Focus on:
- What exactly needs to change?
- Any constraints or edge cases?
- How do we verify it works?
If user's description is already clear enough, skip questions entirely.
Step 2: Scope Check
Count the implied requirements from user's description + answers:
If 5+ distinct requirements or 2+ functional areas detected:
- Warn: "This looks bigger than a quick task ({N} requirements across {M} areas). Recommend full flow:
/quangflow:1-brainstorm {idea}. Continue in quick mode anyway? (YES / switch to full)"
- If user says switch: tell them to run
/quangflow:1-brainstorm {idea} and stop
- If user says YES: proceed but log warning in REQUIREMENTS.md
If 4 or fewer requirements in 1 area: proceed normally.
Step 3: Generate Artifacts
Write to ./plans/{feature-slug}/:
REQUIREMENTS.md (minimal):
# {Feature Title}
Mode: quick
Status: FINAL
## Requirements
- REQ-001: {requirement}
- REQ-002: {requirement}
## Verification
- {how to verify it works}
ROADMAP.md (flat, no phases):
# Roadmap — {feature-slug}
Mode: quick
## Tasks
- [ ] {task 1} — {file(s) to change}
- [ ] {task 2} — {file(s) to change}
- [ ] Verify: {verification step}
Step 4: Implement (minimal team dispatch)
- Auto-compose minimal team: 1 dev agent + 1 tester agent
- Dispatch via
/quangflow:cook --light (no domain-engineer, no tech-lead, no PM — just dev + tester)
- Dev agent implements tasks from ROADMAP.md using TDD (RED-GREEN-REFACTOR)
- Tester agent validates after dev completes
- Evidence saved to
.evidence/tdd/ automatically
Step 5: Verify
- Verify TDD evidence exists in
.evidence/tdd/ for each REQ-ID
- Run relevant tests
- If tests pass: mark ROADMAP.md tasks as done
- If tests fail: fix and re-run
- Save verification gate evidence to
.evidence/verification/quick-gate.md
Review Gate
Present summary:
**Quick task complete:** {title}
- Files changed: {list}
- Tests: {pass/fail}
Ask: "Looks good? Type SHIP to finalize."
Output Rule
- When writing files, save silently. Do NOT print file contents to console.
Next Step
After SHIP:
**Done.** Artifacts at `./plans/{feature-slug}/`.
=> Run `/quangflow:test` for smoke test
=> Run `/quangflow:5-maintain` if more bugs to fix
=> Run `/quangflow:status` to update project status
