Design Documents and Implementation Plans¶

Index of brainstorming sessions, design specifications, and implementation plans for the Home Security Intelligence project.

Plans are working documents that capture design thinking before implementation. They differ from ADRs (Architecture Decision Records) in that they focus on "how to build it" rather than "why we chose this approach."

Current Plans¶

Design Specifications¶

Implementation Plans¶

Audit Reports¶

Plan Types¶

Design Specifications¶

High-level designs created during brainstorming sessions. Capture requirements, goals, non-goals, and proposed architecture before implementation begins.

Implementation Plans¶

Detailed task-by-task breakdowns for Claude agents to execute. Include code snippets, file paths, and explicit steps for TDD workflows.

Audit Reports¶

Analysis documents that identify gaps, issues, or improvement opportunities in the codebase.

Creating a New Plan¶

1. Naming convention: YYYY-MM-DD-plan-name.md
2. Include these sections:
3. Summary/Goal
4. Background/Context
5. Design or Methodology
6. Tasks/Implementation Steps
7. For implementation plans: Add the agent directive at the top:

   > **For Claude:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task.
   

Workflow¶

1. Brainstorm - Create a design spec during brainstorming sessions
2. Review - Get feedback and approval on the design
3. Implement - Convert approved designs into implementation plans
4. Execute - Agents implement using superpowers:executing-plans
5. Archive - Completed plans remain as historical reference
