Dev Workflow Workflows Group Router

0. Identity

• Role: Dev Workflow Lifecycle Dispatcher.
• Authority: Normative group router for skills/dev-workflow/workflows/.
• Must not define: Direct implementation code or execution of specific workflow stages directly; delegates to workflow sub-skills.
• Normative base: core/decision-framework.md, shared/writing/writing-rules.md, docs/anti-patterns.md.

1. Intent (9 Dimensions)

| # | Dimension | Value | | --- | ---------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | 1 | Task | Classify lifecycle requests and dispatch to appropriate workflow sub-skill. | | 2 | Target Tool | Any agent runtime: Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf, Kiro, Cline, raw API. | | 3 | Output Format | Structured routing decision and handoff to target workflow SKILL.md. | | 4 | Constraints | Router executes no sub-skill tasks directly. | | 5 | Input | User request to spec a feature, plan architecture, inspect code, checkpoint, etc. | | 6 | Context | Guarantees enforcement of the 5-stage engineering loop and PRD preparation. | | 7 | Audience | Autonomous developer agents and software architects. | | 8 | Success Criteria | Request routed to target workflow skill cleanly. | | 9 | Examples | See Section 10. |

2. Trigger Matrix

| Category | Trigger | Target Skill File Path | | -------- | ---------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------- | | PRD | Create PRD, spec out feature | workflows/prd-generator/SKILL.md | | Onboard | Audit codebase and generate onboarding map | workflows/project-onboarding-audit/SKILL.md | | Stage 1 | Blueprint session, pre-coding plan | workflows/engineering-loop/blueprint-session/SKILL.md | | Stage 2 | Extract visual tokens from UI component | workflows/engineering-loop/ui-snapshot-tokens/SKILL.md | | Stage 3 | Code inspection, audit code against plan | workflows/engineering-loop/code-inspection/SKILL.md | | Stage 4 | Context checkpoint, save/restore session state | workflows/engineering-loop/context-checkpoint/SKILL.md | | Stage 5 | Failure triage, diagnose complex build bugs | workflows/engineering-loop/failure-triage/SKILL.md |

3. Execution Workflow

Step 1: Analyze Lifecycle Request

• Action: Classify user request into PRD generation or one of the 5 engineering loop stages.
• Input: User prompt.
• Stop Condition: Ask user if workflow stage is ambiguous.
• Validation: Matches a row in the Trigger Matrix.

Step 2: Resolve Sub-skill

• Action: Select exact sub-skill path under workflows/.
• Input: Trigger Matrix.
• Stop Condition: Decline if outside dev workflow lifecycle scope.
• Validation: Target SKILL.md exists.

Step 3: Handoff Execution

• Action: Delegate control to target SKILL.md.
• Input: Target path.
• Stop Condition: Handoff control.
• Validation: Target skill begins execution.

4. Output Specification

{
  "group": "workflows",
  "target_skill": "skills/dev-workflow/workflows/engineering-loop/blueprint-session/SKILL.md"
}

5. Validation Gate

• [ ] Lifecycle request mapped to target sub-skill path.
• [ ] Target SKILL.md file exists on disk.
• [ ] Router does not execute workflow logic directly.

6. Anti-Triggers

• Under-execution: Bypassing pre-coding blueprint and jumping straight to implementation code.
• Over-execution: Forcing PRD generation for simple, single-line bug fixes.

7. Anti-Pattern Compliance

| Step | Prevents AP | Mechanism | | ---- | ---------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------- | | 1 | AP-1 (vague task) | Enforces workflow stage classification before execution. | | 3 | AP-4 (over-permissive) | Router delegates to sub-skills rather than executing directly. |

8. Versioning & Changelog

• Version: 2.0.0
• Changelog:
  • 2.0.0 — Workflows group router created for skills/dev-workflow/workflows/.

9. Portability Matrix

| Runtime | Status | Notes | | ----------- | -------- | ------------------------------- | | Claude Code | verified | Workflow sub-skill dispatcher. | | Cursor | verified | Workflow routing rules. | | Copilot | verified | Custom instructions. | | Windsurf | verified | Workflow directive routing. | | Kiro | verified | Skill runner handoff. | | Cline | verified | System prompt loading. | | Raw API | verified | Model-agnostic workflow router. |
