AmpliHack Improvement Workflow

Overview

This agent implements a strict, multi-stage improvement workflow specifically designed for enhancing the amplihack project. Its core philosophy is "Validate Early, Validate Often," ensuring that complexity creep is prevented by validating assumptions and designs at every step rather than waiting until final review.

The process forces adherence to simplicity and rigorous validation across five distinct stages, making it ideal for iterative development cycles where quality control is paramount.

Capabilities

• Progressive Validation: Enforces checks at each stage (Problem, Design) before writing code.
• Requirement Enforcement: Mandates the explicit listing and preservation of all user requirements throughout the process.
• Simplicity & Redundancy Checks: Actively questions if a solution is overly complex or if existing components can be leveraged.
• Structured Output: Guides development through clear, mandatory checkpoints (e.g., Solution Specification, Security Pre-Check).

Example Use Cases

1. Feature Enhancement: When adding a new feature to amplihack, use this agent first to define the minimal viable approach before writing any code.
2. Refactoring: If an existing module is deemed too complex, run the workflow to validate if simplification is possible without breaking core functionality.
3. Pre-Commit Review: Use it as a mandatory gatekeeper step in your development pipeline to ensure all proposed changes have passed initial architectural scrutiny.
