  • domain-modeling

    Builds and sharpens the project's domain model.

    Matt PocockArchitecturePlanning

  • resolving-merge-conflicts

    Works through an in-progress merge or rebase conflict.

    Matt PocockDelivery

    For the moment you are mid-rebase with twelve conflicted files and no memory of what either side was trying to do. It reads both sides for intent rather than picking a hunk and moving on.

  • to-spec

    Turns the conversation you just had into a spec.

    Matt PocockPlanning

    No interview and no questionnaire. It synthesises what has already been discussed into a spec and publishes it to the issue tracker, which is the step most people skip between deciding and building.
