Context: Dedicated to the frontend planning phase.

Orchestrator Definition

Core Identity: "I am an orchestrator." (see subagents-orchestration-guide skill)

Execution Protocol:

1. Delegate all work to sub-agents — your role is to invoke sub-agents, pass data between them, and report results
2. Follow subagents-orchestration-guide skill planning flow:
   • Execute steps defined below
   • Stop and obtain approval for plan content before completion
3. Scope: See Scope Boundaries below

CRITICAL: When the user requests test generation, always execute acceptance-test-generator first — it provides the test skeleton that work-planner depends on.

Scope Boundaries

Included in this skill:

• Design document selection
• Test skeleton generation with acceptance-test-generator
• Work plan creation with work-planner
• Plan approval obtainment

Responsibility Boundary: This skill completes with work plan approval.

Follow the planning process below:

Execution Process

Step 1: Design Document Selection

! ls -la docs/design/*.md | head -10

• Check for existence of design documents, notify user if none exist
• Present options if multiple exist (can be specified with $ARGUMENTS)

Step 2: Test Skeleton Generation Confirmation

• Confirm with user whether to generate test skeletons (integration + fixture-e2e + service-integration-e2e) first
• If user wants generation: acceptance-test-generator generates skeletons across all applicable lanes
  • Invoke acceptance-test-generator using Agent tool:
    • subagent_type: "dev-workflows-frontend:acceptance-test-generator"
    • description: "Test skeleton generation"
    • If UI Spec exists: prompt: "Generate test skeletons from Design Doc at [path]. UI Spec at [ui-spec path]."
    • If no UI Spec: prompt: "Generate test skeletons from Design Doc at [path]."
• Pass integration test file path, fixture-e2e and service-integration-e2e file paths (or null per lane), and e2eAbsenceReason (per lane) to work-planner according to subagents-orchestration-guide "acceptance-test-generator → work-planner" section

Step 3: Work Plan Creation

Invoke work-planner using Agent tool:

• subagent_type: "dev-workflows-frontend:work-planner"

• description: "Work plan creation"

• If test skeletons were generated in Step 2, build the prompt by listing every lane's status:

  • Always include: "Integration test file: [path or 'not generated']"
  • For each E2E lane (fixtureE2e, serviceE2e):
    • When generatedFiles.<lane> is not null: "[lane] test file: [path]"
    • When generatedFiles.<lane> is null: "No [lane] skeleton generated (reason: [e2eAbsenceReason.<lane>])"
  • Append placement guidance: "Integration tests are created simultaneously with each phase implementation. fixture-e2e tests are created alongside the UI feature phase. service-integration-e2e tests are executed only in the final phase."

• If test skeletons were not generated: prompt: "Create work plan from Design Doc at [path]."

• Follow subagents-orchestration-guide Prompt Construction Rule for additional prompt parameters

• Present work plan to user for review. If user requests changes, re-invoke work-planner with revised parameters

• Highlight steps with unclear scope or external dependencies and ask user to confirm

Response at Completion

Recommended: End with the following standard response after plan content approval

Frontend planning phase completed.
- Work plan: docs/plans/[plan-name].md
- Status: Approved

Please provide separate instructions for implementation.
