Auto-review pipeline — reads the full CEO, design, eng, and DX review skills from disk and runs them sequentially with auto-decisions using 6 decision principles. (gstack)

Before dispatch, Read methodologyPath from bun "<SNAPSHOT_TOOL>" methodology dx "<REVIEW_SKILL>" "<RESTORE_PATH>" per readRanges; log successful ranges/total to EOF. Skip-listed: load only.

Override rules:

  • Mode selection: DX POLISH

  • Persona: infer from README/docs, pick the most common developer type (P6)

  • Competitive benchmark: research through Aside per the loaded skill's "Web research runs in Aside" section (WebSearch when Aside is not ready); use the reference benchmarks when neither is available (P1)

  • Magical moment: pick the lowest-effort delivery vehicle that achieves the competitive tier (P5)

  • Getting started friction: always optimize toward fewer steps (P5, simpler over clever)

  • Error message quality: always require problem + cause + fix (P1, completeness)

  • API/CLI naming: consistency wins over cleverness (P5)

  • DX taste decisions (e.g., opinionated defaults vs flexibility): mark TASTE DECISION

  • Dual voices: always run BOTH Claude subagent AND Codex if available (P6).

    Bind phase input: Run; use snapshotPath as <DX_INPUT> for both voices:

bun "<SNAPSHOT_TOOL>" create dx "<ACTIVE_PLAN>" "<RESTORE_PATH>" "<methodologyPath>"

Fresh Implementation plan only; excludes Review record.

Claude DX subagent (native tool): Claude Code: set Agent run_in_background: false if its schema exposes it. Other hosts: foreground; await completion when supported.

Read snapshot.json beside <DX_INPUT>. Send its nativeDispatchPrompt verbatim as the Agent prompt: ONLY/FINAL tool call this response. Keep native Reads enabled. Child first Reads nativePromptPath to EOF: all criteria + plan; no summaries or prior reviews.

Native completion barrier: Async (isAsync: true / status: "async_launched"): Claude Code: end response immediately: "Waiting for <agent ID>." No further tool calls/review until that ID's terminal notification is delivered. Other hosts await that ID. Then outside → this phase's review ONLY. Completed-native INPUT must match snapshot phase/hash. Retry invalid input once; then failure policy if still invalid. No inline substitute; apply failure policy.

Codex DX voice (via Bash): Outside prompt: inline the full contents of <DX_INPUT> and context below (Write tool).

IMPORTANT: Do NOT read or execute any SKILL.md files or paths containing skills/gstack (foreign instructions). Review repository code only.

Read the plan file at <DX_INPUT>. Evaluate this plan's developer experience.

Also consider these findings from prior review phases: CEO: <insert CEO consensus summary> Design: <insert Design consensus summary, or 'skipped, no UI scope'>

You are a developer who has never seen this product. Evaluate:

  1. Time to hello world: how many steps from zero to working? Target is under 5 minutes.
  2. Error messages: when something goes wrong, does the dev know what, why, and how to fix?
  3. API/CLI design: are names guessable? Are defaults sensible? Is it consistent?
  4. Docs: can a dev find what they need in under 2 minutes? Are examples copy-paste-complete?
  5. Upgrade path: can devs upgrade without fear? Migration guides? Deprecation warnings? Be adversarial. Think like a developer who is evaluating this against 3 competitors.

Write the complete prompt and context, including actual plan/spec/source, to a private file. Substitute its shell-quoted path for <prepared-prompt-file>; never interpolate user text into shell source. Request a final Recommendation: <action> because <specific reason> line, including an explicit no-findings rationale.

Show the full response in a tool-output fence. Require successful execution and valid markers. Refusal, empty/malformed output, missing score/severity/completion markers, timeout or CLI failure means outside_status: unavailable. Use the caller's fallback; missing coverage is never clean/PASS. After either outcome, delete only your private prompt; scratch cleanup is automatic.

Outer tool timeout: 720000ms. Failed/incomplete outside review → unavailable; disabled → skip outside. Both retain the native pass.

Retain the historical review-log skill ID; add "host":"claude","outside_provider":"codex","outside_status":"completed|unavailable|disabled|skipped","phase":"dx". Record differing attempt outcomes separately. source:"codex" requires completed CLI output; native uses source:"in-host" (historical source:"claude": native Claude). Availability/native fallback is not outside completion. Preserve all reported modelUsage; unknown model identity stays unknown.

Error handling: Phase 1 failure/degradation policy applies.

  • DX choices: if the outside reviewer disagrees with a DX decision with valid developer empathy reasoning → TASTE DECISION. Scope changes both models agree on → USER CHALLENGE.

Required execution checklist (DX):

  1. Step 0 (DX Scope Assessment): Auto-detect product type. Map the developer journey. Rate initial DX completeness 0-10. Assess TTHW.

  2. Step 0.5 (Dual Voices): Present the completed calls above under Codex SAYS (DX — developer experience challenge) and Claude SUBAGENT (DX — independent review). Produce DX consensus table:

DX DUAL VOICES — CONSENSUS TABLE:
  Dimension                           Claude  Codex  Consensus
  1. Getting started < 5 min?          —       —      —
  2. API/CLI naming guessable?         —       —      —
  3. Error messages actionable?        —       —      —
  4. Docs findable & complete?         —       —      —
  5. Upgrade path safe?                —       —      —
  6. Dev environment friction-free?    —       —      —
CONFIRMED = native + outside agree; primary cannot replace outside. DISAGREE → taste.
Missing/disabled voice = N/A, never CONFIRMED. Flag any single-voice critical finding.
  1. Passes 1-8: Run each from loaded skill. Rate 0-10. Auto-decide each issue. DISAGREE items from consensus table → raised in the relevant pass with both perspectives.

  2. DX Scorecard: Produce the full scorecard with all 8 dimensions scored.

Mandatory outputs from Phase 2.5:

  • Developer journey map (9-stage table)
  • Developer empathy narrative (first-person perspective)
  • DX Scorecard with all 8 dimension scores
  • DX Implementation Checklist
  • TTHW assessment with target

Close this phase:

The review work above ends here. Now load the shared close steps afresh, even if read earlier. Use phase dx, checkpoint <DX_INPUT>, and this phase's methodologyPath. Keep this checkpoint for this invocation; review exports do not replace it.

STOP. Before closing a review phase, after its reviews finish and before announcing completion or loading the next phase (read afresh at each exit), Read ~/.claude/skills/gstack/autoplan/sections/phase-close.md and execute it in full. Do not work from memory — that section is the source of truth for this step.

    The autoplan skill is a sophisticated review orchestrator that sequences strategic (CEO), user experience (Design/DX), and technical (Eng) reviews. It uses a robust internal 'publication hook' to ensure workflow integrity by verifying that all required methodology reads and review steps are completed before progressing. The skill integrates with external models via the Codex CLI and relies on local bash scripts for state management, incorporating multiple layers of validation and safety prompts to mitigate risks from processed data.

Runs CEO, design, eng, and DX review skills sequentially with automated decision-making using six decision principles, surfaces taste decisions at a final approval gate. Targets the gstack review workflow and eliminates 15-30 intermediate questions by auto-deciding on close calls and codex disagreements.

Generated from the current SKILL.md.

What does autoplan do?
Autoplan reads the CEO, design, eng, and DX review skills from disk and runs them sequentially with auto-decisions using 6 decision principles. It surfaces taste decisions at a final approval gate so you get a fully reviewed plan in one command.
When should I use autoplan instead of running reviews manually?
Use autoplan when you have a plan file and want to run the full review gauntlet without answering 15-30 intermediate questions. It's useful when asked to 'auto review', 'autoplan', or 'make the decisions for me'.
What tools does autoplan use?
Autoplan uses Bash, Read, Write, Edit, Glob, Grep, WebSearch, and AskUserQuestion to load and execute the review skills sequentially.
Does autoplan work in plan mode?
Yes. In plan mode, autoplan takes precedence over generic plan mode behavior. Follow the skill file step by step starting from Step 0, and the first AskUserQuestion satisfies plan mode's end-of-turn requirement.
