Produce the high-level architecture overview used by downstream product design and engineering.

Independent high-level architecture review gate for discovery.

Capture and structure raw ideas through guided interview or quick note. Produces a structured idea document ready for research or PRD pass. Focuses purely on product intent — no technical decisions.

Entry-point product workflow from raw idea to validated product design artifacts. Stops at reviewed PRD readiness and does not include engineering implementation.

Write the per-feature PRD from the ranked requirements contract using the mandatory PRD template.

Dedicated analyze gate for PRD and UI brief consistency. Runs script extraction first, then semantic review with evidence-backed findings.

Validate whether the captured problem is real, painful, frequent, and worth pursuing before broader discovery work begins.

Stage 3 orchestrator: route dedicated product-design skills to turn an approved roadmap version into reviewed PRDs and interface summaries ready for coding agents.

Stage 2 orchestrator: transform an existing idea-capture artifact into a validated roadmap + architecture by routing dedicated discovery skills.

Independent product-side PRD review gate. Runs the full PRD checklist in fresh context and returns PASS or REQUEST_CHANGES.

Research the market, competitors, feasibility, and existing solutions to produce a product discovery research document.

Produce the per-feature requirements contract used as the input to priority ranking and PRD authoring.

Turn capture and research inputs into a versioned product roadmap document.

Independent roadmap review gate for discovery. Checks roadmap quality and returns PASS or REQUEST_CHANGES.

Independent UI brief review gate. Verifies coverage, states, flows, accessibility, and component mapping before engineering delivery.

Transform product requirements into a focused UI/UX design brief with screens, flows, visual direction, and optional image-generation concepts. Bridge between product thinking and implementation.

Dedicated cross-feature integration audit. Extracts candidate conflicts by script, then performs evidence-backed semantic review across the full version scope.

Independent code/security review gate for Hermes workflow. Uses woos-code-reviewer and woos-security-reviewer where applicable.

Stage 3 of idea-to-delivery: gated engineering workflow that receives PRD, roadmap, and architecture inputs, decomposes into stories, and executes with TDD, review, and shipping gates.

Produce a single per-feature engineering plan combining technical design (architecture, test strategy, rollout, baseline/deviation) and the Stories/Tasks section (agile `As a / I want / so that` + commit-sized tasks with concrete Diff Scope). Replaces the prior split between woos-feature-design and woos-story-decomposition.

Independent feature plan review gate. Reviews the combined engineering plan (architecture decisions + Stories/Tasks section) produced by woos-feature-plan, using woos-architect and woos-product-planner in fresh contexts. Returns PASS or REQUEST_CHANGES.

Final pre-PR gate. Reruns verification-loop, auto-generates the traceability matrix from the plan's Stories/Tasks section + test outcomes, confirms commit/PR discipline, then triggers PR creation.

Planning and decomposition review skill adapted from ECC planner agent. Covers stories/tasks review (called from the plan review gate) and planning consults for the feature plan skill. PRD-quality review is NOT in scope — that is owned by `woos-product-prd-review-gate`.

Maintain cumulative cross-gate review context so reviewers build on prior findings instead of restarting from zero.

Orchestrate autonomous workflow runs with queueing, concurrency, timeout, and retry controls.

Architecture review and design skill adapted from ECC architect agent. Use for design validation, trade-off analysis, and system-level decisions.

Define deterministic failure transitions for autonomous workflow runs.

Use when implementation or verification hits repeated failures. Enforces root-cause investigation before fix attempts.

Use this skill when adding authentication, handling user input, working with secrets, creating API endpoints, or implementing payment/sensitive features. Provides comprehensive security checklist and patterns.

Independent code quality and correctness review skill adapted from ECC code-reviewer agent.

Local-evidence production readiness audit for shipped apps, pre-launch reviews, post-merge checks, and "what breaks in prod?" questions without sending repo data to an external audit service.

Security vulnerability review skill adapted from ECC security-reviewer agent.

Define explicit escalation, takeover payload, and resume protocol for autonomous workflow failures.

Capture and reuse failure/rework patterns from workflow runs to improve unattended reliability over time.
