Implementation

Phase Goal​

Translate validated scope into a reliable MVP through structured execution and tight feedback loops.

PM Workflow Patterns for Agent + LLM Delivery​

  • Define outcomes first, then slice work into verifiable deliverables.
  • Create explicit task contracts: context, constraints, acceptance criteria, and review owner.
  • Keep backlog priorities tied to user impact and release goals.

Task Slicing, Handoff Contracts, and Review Cadence​

  • Task slicing: keep units small enough to implement and validate within one review cycle.
  • Handoff contracts: require clear inputs, expected outputs, and failure conditions.
  • Review cadence: run daily execution review and weekly scope/risk review.

Execution Sequence​

  1. Implement one end-to-end core workflow.
  2. Add instrumentation for activation and completion metrics.
  3. Add resilience for key failure paths.
  4. Prepare a pilot release for a narrow user segment.

Definition of Done (MVP)​

  • Core task completion in under three minutes for target users.
  • Critical paths covered by implementation-phase quality gates.
  • Meaningful telemetry and user feedback loop in place.
  • Pilot release feedback translated into a prioritized iteration plan.

Contributor Expansion Areas​

  • PM operating templates for AI-assisted teams.
  • Sprint and release rituals for high-velocity repos.
  • Examples of strong implementation task specs.
