An agent team collaborates to generate the full pipeline in one pass: Roadmap, PRD, User Stories, Sprint Plan, and Retrospective.
Execution Mode
Agent Team — 5 agents communicate directly via SendMessage and cross-verify each other's work.
Agent Composition
| Agent | File | Role | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| strategist | .claude/agents/strategist.md |
Vision, roadmap, OKR, prioritization | general-purpose |
| prd-writer | .claude/agents/prd-writer.md |
Product requirements document | general-purpose |
| story-writer | .claude/agents/story-writer.md |
User stories, AC, story map | general-purpose |
| sprint-planner | .claude/agents/sprint-planner.md |
Sprint plan, capacity, retrospective | general-purpose |
| pm-reviewer | .claude/agents/pm-reviewer.md |
Consistency verification, feasibility | general-purpose |
Workflow
Phase 1: Preparation (Performed directly by the orchestrator)
- Extract from user input:
- Product/Feature: The product or feature to be planned
- Goals: Business/user goals to achieve
- Team Info (optional): Team size, role composition, velocity
- Constraints (optional): Timeline, tech stack, resources
- Existing Assets (optional): Existing PRDs, roadmaps, backlogs
- Create the
_workspace/directory at the project root - Organize input and save as
_workspace/00_input.md - If existing files are present, skip the corresponding phase
- Determine the execution mode based on request scope
Phase 2: Team Assembly and Execution
| Order | Task | Owner | Dependencies | Deliverable |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Roadmap development | strategist | None | _workspace/01_product_roadmap.md |
| 2 | PRD writing | prd-writer | Task 1 | _workspace/02_prd.md |
| 3 | User story decomposition | story-writer | Tasks 1, 2 | _workspace/03_user_stories.md |
| 4 | Sprint planning | sprint-planner | Task 3 | _workspace/04_sprint_plan.md |
| 5 | PM review | pm-reviewer | Tasks 1-4 | _workspace/05_review_report.md |
Inter-agent communication flow:
- strategist completes → sends initiatives, OKRs, and success metrics to prd-writer; sends personas and use cases to story-writer
- prd-writer completes → sends requirements, AC, and scope to story-writer; sends timeline and dependencies to sprint-planner
- story-writer completes → sends story list, dependencies, and total SP to sprint-planner
- pm-reviewer cross-verifies all deliverables. When RED Must Fix items are found, sends revision requests → rework (up to 2 iterations)
Phase 3: Integration and Final Deliverables
- Verify all files in
_workspace/ - Confirm that all RED Must Fix items from the review report have been addressed
- Report the final summary to the user
Execution Modes by Request Scope
| User Request Pattern | Execution Mode | Agents Deployed |
|---|---|---|
| "Plan this product," "Full PM workflow" | Full Pipeline | All 5 agents |
| "Just build the roadmap" | Strategy Mode | strategist + reviewer |
| "Write a PRD" | PRD Mode | strategist + prd-writer + reviewer |
| "Create user stories from this PRD" (existing PRD) | Story Mode | story-writer + reviewer |
| "Create a sprint plan" (existing stories) | Sprint Mode | sprint-planner + reviewer |
| "Review this plan" | Review Mode | reviewer only |
Data Transfer Protocol
| Strategy | Method | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| File-based | _workspace/ directory |
Store and share major deliverables |
| Message-based | SendMessage | Real-time key information transfer, revision requests |
| Task-based | TaskCreate/TaskUpdate | Progress tracking, dependency management |
Error Handling
| Error Type | Strategy |
|---|---|
| Insufficient product info | Strategist proposes 3 general product categories, then prompts user to choose |
| No team info | Plan based on a standard 4-6 person Scrum team |
| Agent failure | Retry once → if still failing, proceed without that deliverable and note the omission in the review report |
| RED found in review | Send revision request to the relevant agent → rework → re-verify (up to 2 iterations) |
Test Scenarios
Normal Flow
Prompt: "We want to add team collaboration features to our SaaS product. Plan the product." Expected Result:
- Roadmap: Team collaboration theme OKR, Now/Next/Later roadmap, RICE priorities
- PRD: Team collaboration feature specs, user flows, AC, non-functional requirements
- User Stories: 15-25 stories, story map, total SP
- Sprint Plan: 3-4 sprint plan, capacity, risks, retrospective template
- Review: 100% coverage in requirements traceability matrix
Existing File Flow
Prompt: "Decompose user stories and create a sprint plan from this PRD" + attached PRD file Expected Result:
- Copy existing PRD to
02_prd.md - Combine Story Mode + Sprint Mode: deploy story-writer + sprint-planner + reviewer
Error Flow
Prompt: "Help me plan a new feature" Expected Result:
- Product/feature unclear → Strategist asks product context questions before proceeding
- Start with Strategy Mode using minimal information, then progressively expand
