managed
Intended for: small teams with a shared backlog and process cadences.
Extends: minimal
The recommended default. Adds roles, decisions, scopes, and all lightweight process artifacts (standups, retros, session handovers) on top of minimal.
What managed adds on top of minimal
Process primitives and cross-cutting process skills:
role-management, decision-record, scope-management,
category-management, cross-reference-management, binding-management,
process-management, state-machine-management, gate-management,
schedule-management, constraint-management, discussion-management,
metrics-management.
process-management, schedule-management, and state-machine-management
are included for legacy v1 migration guidance. They are not first-class
v2 primitive authoring surfaces.
metrics-management remains a managed-package skill, but Metric is no
longer a primitive. Metric specifications are tracked as artifacts and
observations as LogEntries or external time-series data.
Lightweight process artifacts:
backlog-context, decisions-adr, standup-context, session-handover,
context-archiving, retrospective, estimation-planning, code-review,
documentation, refactoring, tdd-workflow, incident-response,
postmortem-writing, release-semver, integration-testing,
dependency-management.
