Implementation Workflow Generator Skill

Transform PRDs and requirements into structured implementation plans.

Quick Start

# PRD-based workflow
/sc:workflow feature-spec.md --strategy systematic --depth deep

# Feature workflow
/sc:workflow "user auth system" --strategy agile --parallel

# Enterprise planning
/sc:workflow enterprise-prd.md --strategy enterprise --validate

Behavioral Flow

1. Analyze - Parse PRD and feature specifications
2. Plan - Generate workflow structure with dependencies
3. Coordinate - Activate personas for domain expertise
4. Execute - Create step-by-step workflows
5. Validate - Apply quality gates and completeness checks

Flags

Flag	Type	Default	Description
--strategy	string	systematic	systematic, agile, enterprise
--depth	string	normal	shallow, normal, deep
--parallel	bool	false	Enable parallel task generation
--validate	bool	false	Include quality gates

Personas Activated

• architect - System design and technical planning
• analyzer - Requirements analysis
• frontend - UI/UX implementation planning
• backend - API and data layer planning
• security - Security requirements integration
• devops - Infrastructure and deployment planning
• project-manager - Timeline and resource coordination

MCP Integration

PAL MCP (Planning & Validation)

Tool	When to Use	Purpose
mcp__pal__planner	Complex workflows	Sequential planning with branching
mcp__pal__consensus	High-risk decisions	Multi-model validation of approach
mcp__pal__thinkdeep	Architecture planning	Deep analysis of system design
mcp__pal__chat	Clarification	Get second opinion on workflow structure

PAL Usage Patterns

# Plan complex workflow
mcp__pal__planner(
    step="Planning authentication system implementation workflow",
    step_number=1,
    total_steps=5,
    is_branch_point=True,
    branch_id="auth-approach-oauth"
)

# Validate architectural decisions
mcp__pal__consensus(
    models=[
        {"model": "gpt-5.2", "stance": "for"},
        {"model": "gemini-3-pro", "stance": "against"},
        {"model": "deepseek", "stance": "neutral"}
    ],
    step="Evaluate: Should auth be microservice or monolith module?"
)

# Deep analysis for enterprise planning
mcp__pal__thinkdeep(
    step="Analyzing compliance requirements for enterprise auth",
    hypothesis="SOC2 requires audit logging at every auth event",
    confidence="medium",
    focus_areas=["compliance", "security", "scalability"]
)

Rube MCP (Project Management)

Tool	When to Use	Purpose
mcp__rube__RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS	Project tools	Find Jira, Asana, Linear, Notion
mcp__rube__RUBE_MULTI_EXECUTE_TOOL	Backlog creation	Create tasks, epics, stories
mcp__rube__RUBE_CREATE_PLAN	Complex workflows	Generate execution plans
mcp__rube__RUBE_CREATE_UPDATE_RECIPE	Reusable workflows	Save workflow templates

Rube Usage Patterns

# Create backlog items from workflow
mcp__rube__RUBE_MULTI_EXECUTE_TOOL(tools=[
    {"tool_slug": "JIRA_CREATE_ISSUE", "arguments": {
        "project": "AUTH",
        "summary": "Implement OAuth2 provider integration",
        "issue_type": "Epic",
        "description": "## Scope\n- Google OAuth\n- GitHub OAuth\n- SAML support"
    }},
    {"tool_slug": "JIRA_CREATE_ISSUE", "arguments": {
        "project": "AUTH",
        "summary": "Set up JWT token generation",
        "issue_type": "Story",
        "description": "Implement JWT with refresh tokens"
    }},
    {"tool_slug": "JIRA_CREATE_ISSUE", "arguments": {
        "project": "AUTH",
        "summary": "Add rate limiting to auth endpoints",
        "issue_type": "Task"
    }}
])

# Notify team of new workflow
mcp__rube__RUBE_MULTI_EXECUTE_TOOL(tools=[
    {"tool_slug": "SLACK_SEND_MESSAGE", "arguments": {
        "channel": "#project-planning",
        "text": "New implementation workflow created: Authentication System\nEpic: AUTH-123\n5 stories, 12 tasks"
    }},
    {"tool_slug": "NOTION_CREATE_PAGE", "arguments": {
        "title": "Auth System Implementation Plan",
        "content": "## Phases\n1. OAuth Integration\n2. JWT Implementation\n3. Rate Limiting\n\n## Timeline\nSprint 1-3"
    }}
])

# Save workflow as reusable template
mcp__rube__RUBE_CREATE_UPDATE_RECIPE(
    name="Auth System Workflow Template",
    description="Standard workflow for implementing authentication systems",
    workflow_code="..."
)

Flags (Extended)

Flag	Type	Default	Description
--pal-plan	bool	false	Use PAL planner for complex workflows
--consensus	bool	false	Validate approach with multi-model consensus
--create-backlog	bool	false	Create backlog items via Rube
--notify	string	-	Notify via Rube (slack, teams, email)
--save-template	bool	false	Save as reusable Rube recipe
