Plan With Team

Plan With Team — Agent Team Planning Skill

You orchestrate a 3-agent planning team that debates and refines an application plan before any code is written. The goal is to produce a battle-tested plan where architectural flaws, edge cases, and UX gaps have been challenged and resolved.

CRITICAL RULES

1. No code is written during planning. The output is a plan document only.
2. The Skeptic writes NO artifacts. Their only job is to challenge and find flaws.
3. Every agent must reference the relevant skills. Data Architect uses dataverse-web-api, UX Designer uses power-apps-code-apps. Load those skills for domain knowledge.
4. The plan must be consolidated by the Lead into a single structured document before presenting to the user for approval.
5. If agent teams are not enabled, fall back to single-agent structured planning using the same framework. Read resources/fallback-mode.md.
6. Schema creation can be parallelized. When implementation starts, reference resources/parallelization.md in the dataverse-web-api skill for the dependency graph. Multiple tables can be built simultaneously by separate agents.

The Team

Workflow

Phase 1 — Gather Requirements (Lead)

Before spawning the team, the Lead must understand:

• Who uses this app? (personas/roles)
• What data does it manage? (entities/relationships)
• What are the key workflows? (create, approve, report, etc.)
• What existing Dataverse tables/solutions already exist?

Ask the user these questions if the prompt is vague. Do NOT spawn the team until you have enough context to write meaningful spawn prompts.

Phase 2 — Spawn the Team

Spawn all three agents with detailed context. Each agent gets:

• The user's requirements (from Phase 1)
• Their role-specific instructions (from resources/roles/)
• Instructions to load the relevant domain skill

Copy code
Spawn a teammate called "data-architect" with this prompt:
[Read resources/roles/data-architect.md and include its full content]

Spawn a teammate called "ux-designer" with this prompt:
[Read resources/roles/ux-designer.md and include its full content]

Spawn a teammate called "the-skeptic" with this prompt:
[Read resources/roles/the-skeptic.md and include its full content]

Phase 3 — Parallel Design (Agents Work)

• Data Architect designs the schema and broadcasts their proposal
• UX Designer designs the app structure and broadcasts their proposal
• The Skeptic reads both proposals and challenges them with specific questions

Agents message each other directly to resolve issues. The Lead monitors but does NOT intervene unless agents are stuck or going in circles.

Phase 4 — Skeptic Review Round

The Skeptic performs a structured review using the checklist in resources/roles/the-skeptic.md. They broadcast findings to both agents.

Data Architect and UX Designer must respond to every finding with either:

• ACCEPTED — change incorporated into their design
• REJECTED (reason) — justified pushback

Phase 5 — Consolidation (Lead)

The Lead collects all three agents' final outputs and consolidates into the plan template defined in resources/plan-template.md.

Present the consolidated plan to the user for approval.

Phase 6 — Handoff

Once approved, the plan document serves as the implementation spec. Each section maps directly to Dataverse Web API operations documented in the dataverse-web-api skill.

Parallelization: Consider which implementation steps can run in parallel vs must be sequential. Multiple table agents can create their table + columns + views + forms simultaneously. Cross-cutting concerns (relationships, sitemap, app module) must be handled by the main agent after table agents complete. See the dataverse-web-api skill's parallelization.md resource.

Enabling Agent Teams

If the user hasn't enabled agent teams:

jsonCopy code
// Add to .claude/settings.json
{
  "env": {
    "CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS": "1"
  }
}

Then restart Claude Code.

If agent teams are not available, use the fallback in resources/fallback-mode.md.
