View Translation Comparison →Implement Plan Preflight
Execute the Preflight phase of the workflow. Creates ADR and Design Spec artifacts with proper cross-linking and verification.
/itp:goWhen to Use This Skill
- Invoked by command during Preflight phase
/itp:go - User asks to create an ADR for a feature
- User mentions "design spec" or "MADR format"
- Manual preflight verification needed
Preflight Workflow Overview
P.1: Create Feature Branch (if -b flag)
│
▼
P.2: Create ADR File (MADR 4.0)
│
▼
P.3: Create Design Spec (from global plan)
│
▼
P.4: Verify Checkpoint (MANDATORY)CRITICAL: Do NOT proceed to Phase 1 implementation until ALL preflight steps are complete and verified.
Quick Reference
ADR ID Format
YYYY-MM-DD-slugExample:
2025-12-01-clickhouse-aws-ohlcv-ingestionFile Locations
| Artifact | Path |
|---|---|
| ADR | |
| Design Spec | |
| Global Plan | |
Cross-Links (MANDATORY)
In ADR header:
markdown
**Design Spec**: [Implementation Spec](/docs/design/YYYY-MM-DD-slug/spec.md)In spec.md header:
markdown
**ADR**: [Feature Name ADR](/docs/adr/YYYY-MM-DD-slug.md)Execution Steps
Step P.1: Create Feature Branch (Optional)
Only if flag specified. See Workflow Steps for details.
-bStep P.2: Create ADR File
- Create
/docs/adr/$ADR_ID.md - Use template from ADR Template
- Populate frontmatter from session context
- Select perspectives from Perspectives Taxonomy
- Use Skill tool to invoke for diagrams
adr-graph-easy-architect
Step P.3: Create Design Spec
- Create folder:
mkdir -p docs/design/$ADR_ID - Copy global plan:
cp ~/.claude/plans/<adj-verb-noun>.md docs/design/$ADR_ID/spec.md - Add ADR backlink to spec header
Step P.4: Verify Checkpoint
Run validator or manual checklist:
bash
uv run scripts/preflight_validator.py $ADR_IDChecklist (ALL must be true):
- ADR file exists at
/docs/adr/$ADR_ID.md - ADR has YAML frontmatter with all 7 required fields
- ADR has link in header
**Design Spec**: - DIAGRAM CHECK 1: ADR has Before/After diagram (Context section)
- DIAGRAM CHECK 2: ADR has Architecture diagram (Architecture section)
- Design spec exists at
/docs/design/$ADR_ID/spec.md - Design spec has backlink in header
**ADR**:
If any item is missing: Create it now. Do NOT proceed to Phase 1.

Diagram Requirements (2 DIAGRAMS REQUIRED)
⛔ MANDATORY: Every ADR must include EXACTLY 2 diagrams:
| Diagram | Location | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Before/After | Context section | Shows system state change |
| Architecture | Architecture section | Shows component relationships |
SKILL INVOCATION: Invoke skill NOW to create BOTH diagrams.

Validation Script
bash
# Verify preflight artifacts
uv run scripts/preflight_validator.py <adr-id>
# Example
uv run scripts/preflight_validator.py 2025-12-01-my-featureTroubleshooting
| Issue | Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Validator fails | Missing ADR or spec | Create both files before running validator |
| Frontmatter invalid | Missing required fields | Check all 7 ADR fields and 5 spec fields |
| Diagram not rendering | graph-easy not installed | Run |
| Spec phase mismatch | Wrong phase value | Use: preflight, phase-1, phase-2, or phase-3 |
| ADR status wrong | Manual status edit | Let workflow manage status transitions |
| Design folder missing | Wrong path structure | Use docs/design/YYYY-MM-DD-slug/spec.md |
