Roadmap — Strategic Project Planning
Create and maintain a high-level project roadmap with major milestones.
Language Awareness — BLOCKING PRE-REQUISITE
BEFORE producing ANY output, silently read .unikit/system/LANGUAGE_RULES.md
and apply its rules to ALL subsequent output.
If the file is missing or unreadable, fall back to English.
Do not produce any user-facing output until language rules are loaded.
Do not announce, confirm, or mention the language setting.
Workflow
Step 0: Load Project Context
Read .unikit/DESCRIPTION.md if it exists to understand:
- Tech stack (engine, framework, DI, async patterns)
- Project architecture and conventions
- Non-functional requirements
Read .unikit/ARCHITECTURE.md if it exists to understand:
- Chosen architecture pattern and folder structure
- Module boundaries and communication patterns
Read .unikit/skill-context/unikit-roadmap/SKILL.md — MANDATORY if the file exists.
This file contains project-specific rules accumulated by /unikit-evolve from patches,
codebase conventions, and tech-stack analysis. These rules are tailored to the current project.
How to apply skill-context rules:
- Treat them as project-level overrides for this skill's general instructions
- When a skill-context rule conflicts with a general rule written in this SKILL.md,
the skill-context rule wins (more specific context takes priority)
- When there is no conflict, apply both: general rules from SKILL.md + project rules from skill-context
- Do NOT ignore skill-context rules even if they seem to contradict this skill's defaults —
they exist because the project's experience proved the default insufficient
- CRITICAL: skill-context rules apply to ALL outputs of this skill — including the ROADMAP.md
template. The template in this SKILL.md is a base structure. If a skill-context rule says
"roadmap MUST include X" or "milestones MUST have Y" — you MUST augment the template accordingly.
Generating a roadmap that violates skill-context rules is a bug.
Enforcement: After generating any output artifact, verify it against all skill-context rules.
If any rule is violated — fix the output before presenting it to the user.
Step 1: Determine Mode
If argument is check → Mode 3: Check Progress (requires ROADMAP.md)
Otherwise check if .unikit/ROADMAP.md exists:
- Does NOT exist → Mode 1: Create Roadmap
- Exists → Mode 2: Update Roadmap
Mode 1: Create Roadmap (First Run)
1.1: Gather Input
If user provided arguments — first classify each argument:
- File path (contains
/, \, or ends with a known extension like .md, .txt, .json, .pdf, .docx) → treat as a reference document. Read the file content and use it as context for generating milestones. Store the path for the References section.
- Plain text → treat as vision/description input for milestones.
Arguments can be mixed — e.g., a description string plus one or more file paths.
If reference documents were detected:
- Read each document via
Read tool
- Extract key goals, requirements, features, and priorities from the document content
- Use extracted information as primary input for milestone generation
- Track which milestones were derived from which documents — this mapping will be recorded in the
## References section
If only plain text arguments provided:
- Use as primary input for milestones
If no arguments:
AskUserQuestion: What are the major goals for this project?
Options:
1. Let me describe the vision
2. Analyze codebase and suggest milestones
3. Both — I'll describe, you'll add what's missing
Based on choice:
- Describe vision → ask follow-up about priorities (next question)
- Analyze codebase → proceed to Step 1.2 (Explore Codebase), auto-generate milestones
- Both → ask for description, then enrich with codebase analysis
If user chooses option 1 or 3, ask follow-up:
AskUserQuestion: Any priorities or deadlines?
Options:
1. Yes, let me specify
2. No, just order by logical sequence
3. Skip — I'll reprioritize later
Based on choice:
- Yes → ask user for priorities/deadlines, incorporate into milestone ordering
- No → order milestones by logical dependency sequence
- Skip → proceed without priority ordering
1.2: Explore Codebase
Scan the project to understand what's already built:
Glob for project structure (key directories, modules)
Grep for implemented features (controllers, systems, views, installers)
- Check git log for completed work:
git log --oneline -20
1.3: Generate ROADMAP.md
Create .unikit/ROADMAP.md using the format defined in the ROADMAP.md Format section below.
Rules for milestones:
- Each milestone is a high-level goal, not a granular task (that's
/unikit-plan)
- 5-15 milestones is the sweet spot — fewer means too vague, more means too granular
- Order by logical sequence (dependencies first)
- Mark already-completed milestones as
[x] and add them to the Completed table
- Use today's date for milestones detected as already done
1.4: Confirm with user
Show the generated roadmap and ask:
AskUserQuestion: Here's the proposed roadmap. What would you like to do?
Options:
1. Looks good — save it
2. Add more milestones
3. Remove/modify some milestones
4. Rewrite — let me give better input
Based on choice:
- Save → write to
.unikit/ROADMAP.md
- Add more → ask for additional milestones, regenerate, re-confirm
- Remove/modify → ask which to change, apply edits, re-confirm
- Rewrite → ask for new input, regenerate from scratch
Mode 2: Update Roadmap (Subsequent Run)
2.1: Read Current State
- Read
.unikit/ROADMAP.md
- Read
.unikit/DESCRIPTION.md for context
- Explore codebase briefly to check what's changed since last update
2.2: Determine Action
If user provided arguments — classify each argument (same rules as Mode 1 Step 1.1):
- File path → read document, use content as context, add to
## References section (append to existing references, avoid duplicates)
- Plain text → treat as new milestones or change instructions
If arguments contain reference documents:
- Read each document, extract goals/requirements
- Generate new milestones from the document content and append to the roadmap
- Add document paths to the References section
If only plain text arguments:
- Apply the requested changes directly
If no arguments:
- Analyze current state and present options:
AskUserQuestion: What would you like to do with the roadmap?
Options:
1. Review progress — check what's done, mark completed milestones
2. Add new milestones
3. Reprioritize — reorder existing milestones
4. Rewrite — major revision of the roadmap
Based on choice:
- Review progress → scan codebase for completed milestones, propose updates (Step 2.3)
- Add milestones → ask for new milestones, append to roadmap (Step 2.4)
- Reprioritize → present current order, ask for new order (Step 2.5)
- Rewrite → major revision, ask for new vision
2.3: Review Progress (if chosen)
- Scan codebase for evidence of completed milestones
- For each unchecked milestone, check if the work appears done
- Propose marking completed milestones:
AskUserQuestion: These milestones appear to be done:
- **Milestone Name** — [evidence: files exist, systems implemented, etc.]
Mark them as completed?
Options:
1. Yes — mark all as completed
2. No — skip
Based on choice:
- Yes → change
- [ ] to - [x] for listed milestones, add to Completed table with today's date
- No → skip, proceed to next step
If confirmed:
- Change
- [ ] to - [x] in the Milestones section
- Add entry to Completed table with today's date
- Move completed milestones below unchecked ones (or keep in place — user preference)
2.4: Add New Milestones (if chosen)
- Ask user to describe new milestones
- Insert them in logical order among existing milestones
- Update
.unikit/ROADMAP.md
2.5: Reprioritize (if chosen)
- Show current order
- Ask user for new order or let them describe priority changes
- Reorder milestones in
.unikit/ROADMAP.md
2.6: Save Changes
Update .unikit/ROADMAP.md with all modifications.
Show summary:
## Roadmap Updated
Total milestones: N
✅ Completed: X/N
▶ Next up: **Milestone Name**
To start working on the next milestone:
/unikit-plan <milestone description> → creates plan
/unikit-implement → executes the plan
Mode 3: Check Progress (/unikit-roadmap check)
Automated scan — analyze the codebase, detect completed milestones, and propose marking them (with user confirmation).
Requires .unikit/ROADMAP.md to exist. If it doesn't — tell the user to run /unikit-roadmap first.
3.1: Read roadmap and project context
- Read
.unikit/ROADMAP.md
- Read
.unikit/DESCRIPTION.md for tech stack context
3.2: Analyze each unchecked milestone
For every - [ ] milestone:
- Determine what evidence would prove it's done (files, systems, models, configs, tests)
- Use
Glob and Grep to search for that evidence
- Check
git log --oneline --all -30 for related commits
- Score: done (strong evidence), partial (some work started), not started
3.3: Report findings
## Roadmap Progress Check
✅ Done (ready to mark):
- **Trading System** — found: TradeController, TradeOffer, trade installers, tests
- **Customer Behaviour** — found: CustomerFSM, NodeCanvas trees, customer spawning
🔄 In Progress:
- **Mini-Games System** — found: MiniGameLauncher exists but SliderGame incomplete
⏳ Not Started:
- **Night Market**
- **Dynamic Events**
Mark completed milestones? (2 milestones)
3.4: Apply changes (if confirmed)
- Mark done milestones
[x]
- Add entries to Completed table with today's date
- Leave partial and not-started milestones unchanged
Show updated summary:
✅ Completed: X/N milestones
▶ Next up: **Milestone Name**

## References
| Document | Description | Milestones |

| `relative/path/to/document.md` | Brief description of contents | Milestone A, Milestone B |
## Completed
| Milestone | Date |
|-----------|------|
| Name | YYYY-MM-DD |
References section rules:
- Include
## References only when reference documents were provided as arguments
- If no documents were passed — omit the section entirely (do not include an empty table)
- Store paths relative to the project root
- Description column: a short summary of what the document covers (extracted during reading)
- Milestones column: comma-separated names of milestones that were derived from or informed by this document. When generating milestones from a document, track which milestones came from which source. A milestone may appear in multiple rows if it was informed by several documents.
- On subsequent updates (Mode 2): append new documents, never remove existing references unless user explicitly asks. When new milestones are added from existing references, update the Milestones column accordingly.
Critical Rules
- Milestones are high-level — each represents a major feature or capability, not a task
- ROADMAP.md is the source of truth — always read before modifying
- Never remove milestones silently — always confirm with user before removing
- Completed table tracks history — every checked milestone gets a date entry
- NO implementation — this skill only plans, use
/unikit-plan to start a feature and /unikit-implement to execute
- Ownership boundary — this command owns
.unikit/ROADMAP.md. /unikit-implement may only mark milestones completed when implementation evidence is clear
- Respond in the configured language — use
language.ui from .unikit/config.yaml (default: English) for all user-facing messages
- References are append-only — never remove document references unless explicitly asked by the user
- References require documents — only add the
## References section when actual documents were provided; never generate it with empty content
