The Governed Delivery Pipeline

From raw backlog intent to autonomous pull request management, every phase is grounded by your architecture constitution and verified against drift.

Phase 1

Backlog & Discover

Brainstorm with Flash-Mem memory context and Jira/Beads story scope.

/ag-governed-discover
Phase 2

Spec & Grounding

Schema delta specs verified against base-branch code with Premise Grounding.

/ag-governed-spec
Phase 3

Plan & Guardrails

Technical design and task breakdowns enforcing Ponytail minimalism.

/ag-governed-plan
Phase 4

Multi-Agent Build

Parallel implementation via Claude Teammates, OpenCode, or Antigravity.

/ag-governed-implement
Phase 5

Deep Verification

Consumer inventory, hygiene runner, Sonar rules, and change checks.

/ag-verify base=main
Phase 6

PR Queue & Forges

Autonomous PR triage across GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, and Azure DevOps.

/ag-pr-queue
STEP 1 HIGHLIGHT

1. Discover & Backlog Shaping

Brainstorm features with Flash-Mem historical context and Jira/Beads story scope. Architecture Guard warns on architectural drift early and decomposes multi-item initiatives into clean backlog items.

Auto-Repair Artifact Loops (at most 5 passes)
Batched Human Approval Gates (Decide, Push, Resolve)
Isolated Worktree Execution
Multi-Agent Host Support

Native Execution Across Top AI Coding Hosts

Architecture Guard avoids vendor lock-in. It coordinates native teammates and subagents on your preferred AI platform under one unified safety floor.

Anthropic

Claude Code

Agent Teams (Teammates)

Generates agteam-*.md specialist roles (Author, Reviewer, Implementers, Quality Gate) with task ownership and peer messaging.

Coordination: Native Teammate Mesh
Google DeepMind

Antigravity (AGY)

Native Subagents

Generates skills and workflows (agx-*.md) using invoke_subagent for parallel reviews and isolated task work.

Coordination: Subagent Dispatch API
OpenCode CLI

OpenCode

Parallel Specialist Subagents

Lead coordinates native local subagents (agoc-*) with strict permission envelopes ("*": deny) and sequential fallback.

Coordination: Lead-Controlled Subagents
OpenAI

OpenAI Codex

Scoped Skills & Sessions

Installs skills in .codex/skills/ with sequential lead execution and isolated child session delegation for targeted reviews.

Coordination: Child Session Dispatch
Also supports Cursor, Gemini CLI, and GitHub Copilot with canonical instruction files and skills.

/ag-governed-discover "Real-time analytics dashboard"

# 2. Automatically generate Spec, Plan, and Tasks with artifact repair loops
/ag-governed-delivery

# 3. Implement tasks within strict architecture boundaries
/ag-governed-implement

# 4. Verify against destination branch (same checks as PR review)
/ag-verify base=main

# 5. Open PR and manage feedback queue
/ag-pr-queue
5 Core Pillars

Engineered for Governed High-Velocity Delivery

Architecture Guard bridges your high-level architectural rules with agentic execution across every phase.

Spec-Driven by Default

Supports OpenSpec, SpecKit, and custom adapters with schema-aware delta specs and automatic change scoping.

Deep Verification

Premise Grounding against real base-branch code, Consumer Inventory, Artifact Consistency, and Hygiene scans.

Governed Backlogs

Deliver Jira JQL, Beads, or YAML backlogs across Full, Fix, Light, and Research lanes with 4 batched gates.

Autonomous PR Queue

One command scans PRs, triages feedback in isolated worktrees, and reviews team code across all major forges.

Multi-Agent Teams

Coordinate Claude Code Teammates, Antigravity Subagents, OpenCode, and Codex with strict file boundaries.
