description	Adaptive development workflow that runs discover -> research -> plan -> implement -> verify with explicit quality gates.

start-dev

Use this skill as a practical default for non-trivial feature delivery.

Goal

Move from request to verified implementation with minimal rework.

Workflow

1. Discover:
   • Map affected modules
   • Identify constraints and existing patterns
2. Research:
   • Validate version-sensitive APIs and framework behavior from official docs
3. Plan:
   • Define smallest reversible change
   • List files and risks
4. Implement:
   • Execute in small increments
   • Keep tests and build green
5. Verify:
   • Run targeted tests, then broader checks
   • Summarize residual risk honestly

Delegation Pattern

• explore for codebase mapping
• architect for design tradeoffs
• executor for implementation
• test-engineer for test strategy
• code-reviewer or verifier for final quality pass

Quality Gates

• Requirements are explicit before coding.
• Plan includes rollback strategy.
• Verification commands and results are captured.
• No completion claim without evidence.
