Feature Skill

Complete SDLC orchestration with quality gates.

When to Activate

This skill is relevant when:

• Implementing complete features end-to-end
• Need full SDLC process guidance
• Want structured feature delivery
• Require quality gates at each stage

Core Principles

Process Discipline

• Follow SDLC stages in order
• Don't skip steps
• Each stage builds on previous
• Systematic progression

Quality Gates

• Get approval before proceeding
• Validate completeness at each stage
• User confirms readiness
• Prevent rework from rushing

Clear Communication

• Summarize progress at transitions
• Document what was completed
• Explain what comes next
• Keep stakeholders informed

Stage Completeness

• Finish current stage fully
• Don't mix stage concerns
• Clear artifacts per stage
• Traceable progress

Quick Checks

For complete feature delivery, verify:

• Feature request is clear
• Codebase access available
• Stage 1: Specification created and approved
• Stage 2: Clarifications addressed and confirmed
• Stage 3: Implementation plan created and reviewed
• Stage 4: Tasks broken down and confirmed
• Stage 5: Implementation complete, reviewed, and quality-checked
• Stage 6: Changes committed and deployed
• Stage 7: Retrospective documented
• All quality gates passed
• All tests passing
• User approval at each gate

SDLC Stages
