Context
AI coding agents (OpenCode, Codex, Cursor, Claude Code) produce inconsistent results without structured specifications. Teams lack a repeatable methodology for breaking down work into AI-executable units.
Approach
Created a 7-stage pipeline where each stage has a defined role, rules, explicit handoff criteria, and output template:
1. Idea — high-level concept
2. Briefing — context and constraints
3. PRD — product requirements
4. Architecture — system design
5. UX/UI — interface design
6. Tasks — granular breakdown
7. Prompts — AI-executable units
Designed for tool-agnostic use across any coding agent platform.
