v1.5.1: Strict SDLC Handoff & Anti-Scope Creep Enforcement

Release v1.5.1: Strict SDLC Handoff & Anti-Scope Creep Enforcement 🛡️

Version 1.5.1 focuses on fortifying the SDLC workflow architecture by enforcing strict Anti-Scope Creep boundaries on all planning, analysis, and review agents.

Moving forward, all non-executor agents are strictly mandated to halt execution once their respective design or documentation is complete. They are explicitly prohibited from independently writing or editing production code. Instead, these agents will automatically guide you through a standardized handoff process to the appropriate agent for the next phase.

🚀 Enhancements & New Features

• Mandatory Handoff Implementation: Introduced a formal handoff phase within the SKILL.md instructions, ensuring a structured and sequential agent workflow.
• Strict Execution Boundaries (Pushback Rules): Updated agent rule files and the project constitution (AGENTS.md) to guarantee that planning agents do not overstep their boundaries into functional coding.

🛠️ Agent-Specific Updates

• 🤖 @BrainstormingExplorerAnalyst (Phase 0):
  • Implemented Rule #4: Handoff After Discovery Draft Approval.
  • The agent will now explicitly request you to switch to @ProductManagerPRD upon the completion of the discovery draft.
• 🤖 @ProductManagerPRD (Phase PRD):
  • Implemented Rule #5: Handoff After PRD Approval.
  • Once Acceptance Criteria are approved, the agent will direct you to the @ClarificationAnalyst checkpoint and then to @SpecificationArchitect for technical design.
• 🤖 @ExpertCodeReviewer (Supplementary):
  • Restructured the workflow into 3 distinct phases (Code Review, Plan Generation, Handoff).
  • Implemented Rule #5: Handoff After Plan Approval.
  • Upon finalizing the Refactoring Plan, the agent will provide a ready-to-use prompt for you to pass to @GodModeDev for executing the fixes.
• 🤖 Boundary Maintenance for Other Agents:
  • The strict "No Coding" boundaries have also been tested and maintained across @SpecificationArchitect, @PlannerArchitect, and @BugRemediationArchitect.

🔄 Cross-Platform Propagation

All rule updates and workflow instructions (SKILL.md) mentioned above have been synchronized and validated across all 7 supported platform integrations:

• ✅ .agents (Standard)
• ✅ .github (GitHub Copilot)

Release Notes:
This update is critical for users employing strict Sequential Development workflows, ensuring that no documentation, approval, or design steps are bypassed before @GodModeDev executes the code.
