Research to Roadmap (r2r)

A Claude Code plugin I built overnight to transform R&D projects, POCs, and lab experiments into production-ready roadmaps.

The Pipeline

┌─────────┐   ┌───────────┐   ┌────────────┐   ┌─────────┐   ┌──────────┐   ┌────────┐
│ ASSESS  │ → │ DECOMPOSE │ → │ PRIORITIZE │ → │ ROADMAP │ → │ VALIDATE │ → │ EXPORT │
└─────────┘   └───────────┘   └────────────┘   └─────────┘   └──────────┘   └────────┘

What Each Phase Does

1. ASSESS /r2r:assess

• Analyzes research artifacts (POCs, spikes, ADRs)
• Determines what was actually proven vs assumed
• Gives a production readiness score (1-10)
• Identifies gaps and technical debt

2. DECOMPOSE /r2r:decompose

• Breaks research into shippable components
• Single-responsibility units
• T-shirt sizing (S/M/L/XL)
• Maps dependencies between components

3. PRIORITIZE /r2r:prioritize

• Effort vs impact scoring
• Assigns to horizons:
  • H1 (0-3 months): Ship now
  • H2 (3-6 months): Build next
  • H3 (6-12 months): Explore later
• Identifies quick wins

4. ROADMAP /r2r:roadmap

• Generates milestone-based roadmap
• Creates Mermaid Gantt timeline
• Maps release phases (Internal → Private → Public → GA)
• Multiple stakeholder views (exec/eng/PM)

5. VALIDATE /r2r:validate

• Pre-mortem analysis ("The project failed because...")
• Assumption audit
• Dependency validation
• Kill criteria check
• Pass/Caution/Fail status

6. EXPORT /r2r:export

• GitHub Issues + Milestones
• Linear issues
• Markdown summary
• JSON for automation

Why I Built This

Most R&D work dies in the gap between "cool demo" and "production system." This plugin creates a structured path across that gap, based on patterns from GitHub Next, Linear, Vercel, and Figma's labs.

Try It

/r2r:full ./path/to/research

Or run /r2r-demo to see sample output.
