Implementation

Session Initialization

const getUtc8ISOString = () => new Date(Date.now() + 8 * 60 * 60 * 1000).toISOString()

// Parse flags
const AUTO_YES = $ARGUMENTS.includes('--yes') || $ARGUMENTS.includes('-y')
const continueMode = $ARGUMENTS.includes('--continue') || $ARGUMENTS.includes('-c')
const modeMatch = $ARGUMENTS.match(/(?:--mode|-m)\s+(progressive|direct|auto)/)
const requestedMode = modeMatch ? modeMatch[1] : 'auto'

// Clean requirement text (remove flags)
const requirement = $ARGUMENTS
  .replace(/--yes|-y|--continue|-c|--mode\s+\w+|-m\s+\w+/g, '')
  .trim()

const slug = requirement.toLowerCase()
  .replace(/[^a-z0-9\u4e00-\u9fa5]+/g, '-')
  .substring(0, 40)
const dateStr = getUtc8ISOString().substring(0, 10)
const sessionId = `RMAP-${slug}-${dateStr}`
const sessionFolder = `.workflow/.roadmap/${sessionId}`

// Auto-detect continue mode
if (continueMode || file_exists(`${sessionFolder}/roadmap.md`)) {
  // Resume existing session
  const existingRoadmap = Read(`${sessionFolder}/roadmap.md`)
  // Extract current phase and continue from there
}

Bash(`mkdir -p ${sessionFolder}`)

Phase 1: Requirement Understanding & Strategy

1. Parse Requirement
   • Extract: goal, constraints, stakeholders, keywords
2. Assess Uncertainty
   javascript

   const uncertaintyFactors = {
     scope_clarity: 'low|medium|high',
     technical_risk: 'low|medium|high',
     dependency_unknown: 'low|medium|high',
     domain_familiarity: 'low|medium|high',
     requirement_stability: 'low|medium|high'
   }
   
   // Calculate recommendation
   const highCount = Object.values(uncertaintyFactors).filter(v => v === 'high').length
   const lowCount = Object.values(uncertaintyFactors).filter(v => v === 'low').length
   
   let recommendedMode
   if (highCount >= 3) recommendedMode = 'progressive'
   else if (lowCount >= 3) recommendedMode = 'direct'
   else recommendedMode = 'progressive'  // default safer choice

3. Strategy Selection (skip if

   -m

   specified or AUTO_YES)
   javascript

   let selectedMode
   
   if (requestedMode !== 'auto') {
     selectedMode = requestedMode
   } else if (AUTO_YES) {
     selectedMode = recommendedMode
   } else {
     const answer = ASK_USER([
       {
         id: "strategy",
         type: "choice",
         prompt: `Decomposition strategy:\nUncertainty: ${uncertaintyLevel}\nRecommended: ${recommendedMode}`,
         options: [
           { value: "progressive", label: recommendedMode === 'progressive' ? "Progressive (Recommended)" : "Progressive" },
           { value: "direct", label: recommendedMode === 'direct' ? "Direct (Recommended)" : "Direct" }
         ],
         default: recommendedMode
       }
     ])  // BLOCKS (wait for user response)
   
     selectedMode = answer.strategy
   }

4. Initialize roadmap.md
   javascript

   const roadmapContent = `# Requirement Roadmap

Strategy Assessment

• Uncertainty Level: ${uncertaintyLevel}
• Decomposition Mode: ${selectedMode}
• Assessment Basis: ${factorsSummary}
• Goal: ${extractedGoal}
• Constraints: ${extractedConstraints}
• Stakeholders: ${extractedStakeholders}

**Success Criteria**:
- roadmap.md created with Strategy Assessment
- Strategy selected (progressive or direct)
- Uncertainty factors documented

---

### Phase 2: Decomposition & Issue Creation

**Objective**: Execute decomposition via `cli-roadmap-plan-agent`, create issues, update roadmap.md.

**Steps**:

1. **Optional Codebase Exploration** (if codebase detected)
```javascript
const hasCodebase = Bash(`
  test -f package.json && echo "nodejs" ||
  test -f go.mod && echo "golang" ||
  test -f Cargo.toml && echo "rust" ||
  test -f pyproject.toml && echo "python" ||
  test -d src && echo "generic" ||
  echo "none"
`).trim()

let codebaseContext = null

if (hasCodebase !== 'none') {
  const exploreAgentId = spawn_agent({
    message: `
## TASK ASSIGNMENT

### MANDATORY FIRST STEPS (Agent Execute)
1. **Read role definition**: ~/.codex/agents/cli-explore-agent.md (MUST read first)
2. Read: .workflow/project-tech.json
3. Read: .workflow/project-guidelines.json

---

## Exploration Context
- **Requirement**: ${requirement}
- **Strategy**: ${selectedMode}
- **Project Type**: ${hasCodebase}
- **Session**: ${sessionFolder}

## Exploration Focus
- Identify modules/components related to the requirement
- Find existing patterns that should be followed
- Locate integration points for new functionality
- Assess current architecture constraints

## Output
Return findings as JSON with schema:
{
"project_type": "${hasCodebase}",
"relevant_modules": [{name, path, relevance}],
"existing_patterns": [{pattern, files, description}],
"integration_points": [{location, description, risk}],
"architecture_constraints": [string],
"tech_stack": {languages, frameworks, tools}
}
`
  })

  const exploreResult = wait({
    ids: [exploreAgentId],
    timeout_ms: 120000
  })

  close_agent({ id: exploreAgentId })

  if (exploreResult.status[exploreAgentId].completed) {
    codebaseContext = exploreResult.status[exploreAgentId].completed
  }
}

1. Execute Decomposition Agent
   javascript

   const decompositionAgentId = spawn_agent({
     message: `

TASK ASSIGNMENT

MANDATORY FIRST STEPS (Agent Execute)

1. Read role definition: ~/.codex/agents/cli-roadmap-plan-agent.md (MUST read first)
2. Read: .workflow/project-tech.json
3. Read: .workflow/project-guidelines.json

Roadmap Decomposition Task

Input Context

• Requirement: ${requirement}
• Selected Mode: ${selectedMode}
• Session ID: ${sessionId}
• Session Folder: ${sessionFolder}

Strategy Assessment

Codebase Context

Mode-Specific Requirements

• 2-4 layers from MVP to full implementation
• Each layer: id (L0-L3), name, goal, scope, excludes, convergence, risks, effort, depends_on
• L0 (MVP) must be a self-contained closed loop with no dependencies
• Scope: each feature belongs to exactly ONE layer (no overlap)
• Layer names: MVP / Usable / Refined / Optimized` :

• Topologically-sorted task sequence
• Each task: id (T1-Tn), title, type, scope, inputs, outputs, convergence, depends_on, parallel_group
• Inputs must come from preceding task outputs or existing resources
• Tasks in same parallel_group must be truly independent`}

Convergence Quality Requirements

• criteria[]: MUST be testable (can write assertions or manual verification steps)
• verification: MUST be executable (command, script, or explicit steps)
• definition_of_done: MUST use business language (non-technical person can judge)

Expected Output

1. Update ${sessionFolder}/roadmap.md with Roadmap table + Convergence sections
2. Create issues via ccw issue create - append to .workflow/issues/issues.jsonl

Issue Format (for ccw issue create)

• id: ISS-YYYYMMDD-NNN (auto-generated)
• title: [LayerName] goal or [TaskType] title
• context: Markdown with goal, scope, convergence criteria, verification, DoD
• priority: small→4, medium→3, large→2
• tags: ["roadmap", mode, wave-N, layer-name]
• extended_context.notes: {session, strategy, wave, depends_on_issues}

Execution Steps

1. Analyze requirement and build decomposition context
2. Execute decomposition (internal reasoning)
3. Validate records, check convergence quality
4. For each decomposed item:
   • Run: ccw issue create --title "..." --context "..." --tags "..." --priority N
   • Record returned Issue ID
5. Update roadmap.md with Issue ID references
6. Return brief completion summary with Issue IDs ` })
   const decompositionResult = wait({ ids: [decompositionAgentId], timeout_ms: 300000 // 5 minutes for complex decomposition })
   close_agent({ id: decompositionAgentId })
   if (!decompositionResult.status[decompositionAgentId].completed) { throw new Error('Decomposition agent failed to complete') }
   const issueIds = decompositionResult.status[decompositionAgentId].completed.issueIds || []

   undefined

• Issues created in

  .workflow/issues/issues.jsonl

• roadmap.md updated with Issue references
• No circular dependencies
• Convergence criteria testable

Phase 3: Iterative Refinement

1. Display Current Roadmap
   • Read and display Roadmap table + key Convergence criteria
   • Show issue count and wave breakdown
2. Feedback Loop (skip if AUTO_YES)
   javascript

   let round = 0
   let approved = false
   
   while (!approved && round < 5) {
     round++
   
     const feedback = ASK_USER([

         ]
       }
     ])  // BLOCKS (wait for user response)
   
     if (feedback.feedback === 'approve') {
       approved = true
     } else {
       // CONSTRAINT: All modifications below ONLY touch roadmap.md and issues.jsonl

         case 'replan':
           // Return to Phase 2 with new strategy
           const newStrategy = ASK_USER([
             {
               id: "strategy",
               type: "choice",

           break
       }
   
       // Update Iteration History in roadmap.md
       const iterationEntry = `

Round ${round} - ${getUtc8ISOString()}

       Edit({          path:

  old_string: "**Status**: Planning",
  new_string: "**Status**: Ready"
})

• User approved OR max rounds reached

Core Rules

1. Start Immediately: First action is session initialization, then Phase 1 execution
2. Single Source: All context embedded in roadmap.md, no separate JSON files
3. Iterate on Roadmap: Use feedback rounds to refine, not recreate
4. Testable Convergence: criteria = assertions, DoD = business language
5. Explicit Lifecycle: Always close_agent after wait completes to free resources
6. DO NOT STOP: Continuous workflow until handoff complete
7. Plan-Only Modifications: Interactive feedback (Phase 3) MUST only update

   roadmap.md

   and

   issues.jsonl

   . NEVER modify source code, configuration files, or any project files during interactive rounds. Code changes happen only after handoff (Phase 4) via team-planex or other execution skills

Best Practices

1. Clear Requirements: Detailed description → better decomposition
2. Iterate on Roadmap: Use feedback rounds to refine convergence criteria
3. Testable Convergence: criteria = assertions, DoD = business language
4. Use Continue Mode: Resume to iterate on existing roadmap
5. Wave Execution: Start with wave-1 (MVP) to validate before full execution
