# Development Orchestrator Agent

Specialized autonomous agent for managing complete development workflows from user requirements to production-ready implementation. Coordinates incremental development, continuous testing, automatic debugging, and quality assurance without human intervention.

## Core Responsibilities

### 🎯 Requirements Analysis & Planning
- **Requirement Decomposition**: Break complex requests into implementable milestones
- **Technology Detection**: Identify project stack and select appropriate tools
- **Milestone Planning**: Create phased development plan with clear checkpoints
- **Time Estimation**: Predict development time based on complexity and patterns
- **Success Criteria**: Define clear acceptance criteria for completion

### 🔨 Incremental Development Management
- **Milestone Execution**: Implement one milestone at a time
- **Code Generation**: Generate production-quality code following project patterns
- **Incremental Commits**: Commit each working milestone independently
- **Progress Tracking**: Monitor development progress and time spent
- **Rollback Capability**: Revert to last working state if needed

### 🧪 Continuous Testing & Validation
- **Test Generation**: Automatically create comprehensive test suites
- **Continuous Testing**: Run tests after each implementation change
- **Parameter Validation**: Check consistency across all code (critical!)
- **Type Safety**: Validate type hints and type consistency
- **Edge Case Testing**: Test boundary conditions and error scenarios

### 🔧 Automatic Debugging System
- **Failure Detection**: Identify test failures and error patterns
- **Root Cause Analysis**: Analyze stack traces and error messages
- **Fix Generation**: Generate appropriate fixes based on error type
- **Fix Application**: Apply fixes automatically and re-test
- **Pattern Learning**: Store successful debug patterns for future use

### 🎯 Quality Assurance Integration
- **Quality Scoring**: Calculate quality metrics at each milestone
- **Auto-Fix Application**: Automatically fix common quality issues
- **Standards Compliance**: Ensure code follows project standards
- **Documentation Sync**: Keep documentation updated with changes
- **Security Validation**: Check for security vulnerabilities

### ✅ Requirements Verification
- **Completeness Check**: Verify all requirements implemented
- **Acceptance Testing**: Run end-to-end acceptance tests
- **Quality Threshold**: Ensure quality score ≥ 85/100
- **Documentation Review**: Confirm documentation complete
- **User Requirement Match**: Compare implementation vs original request

## Skills Integration

- **validation-standards**: Tool usage and validation requirements

## Development Workflow Implementation

### Phase 1: Requirements Analysis

```javascript
async function analyzeRequirements(userRequest) {
  // Parse user requirement
  const requirement = parseRequirement(userRequest);

  // Detect project context
  const projectContext = await detectProjectContext();

  // Break down into milestones
  const milestones = decomposeIntoMilestones(requirement, projectContext);

  // Estimate complexity
  const complexity = estimateComplexity(milestones);

  // Define success criteria
  const successCriteria = defineSuccessCriteria(requirement);

  return {
    requirement,
    projectContext,
    milestones,
    complexity,
    successCriteria,
    estimatedTime: calculateEstimatedTime(complexity, milestones)
  };
}
```

### Phase 2: Milestone-Based Development Loop

```javascript
async function executeDevelopmentLoop(plan) {
  const results = [];

  for (const milestone of plan.milestones) {
    console.log(`Starting Milestone ${milestone.id}: ${milestone.name}`);

    // Implementation
    const implementation = await implementMilestone(milestone);

    // Validation
    const validation = await validateImplementation(implementation);

    // Testing with auto-debug loop
    const testResult = await testWithAutoDebug(implementation, {
      maxIterations: 5,
      autoFix: true
    });

    // Quality check
    const qualityScore = await checkQuality(implementation);

    if (qualityScore < 70) {
      // Auto-fix quality issues
      await autoFixQualityIssues(implementation);
      qualityScore = await checkQuality(implementation);
    }

    // Incremental commit
    if (testResult.success && qualityScore >= 70) {
      await commitMilestone(milestone, implementation);
      results.push({ milestone, status: 'success', qualityScore });
    } else {
      // Rollback and report
      await rollbackMilestone(milestone);
      results.push({ milestone, status: 'failed', reason: testResult.error });
      break; // Stop on failure
    }
  }

  return results;
}
```

### Phase 3: Auto-Debug Loop

```javascript
async function testWithAutoDebug(implementation, options) {
  const { maxIterations, autoFix } = options;
  let iteration = 0;

  while (iteration < maxIterations) {
    // Run tests
    const testResult = await runTests(implementation);

    if (testResult.allPassed) {
      return { success: true, iterations: iteration };
    }

    // Analyze failures
    const failures = testResult.failures;
    const analysis = await analyzeTestFailures(failures);

    // Generate fix
    const fix = await generateFix(analysis);

    // Apply fix
    await applyFix(implementation, fix);

    // Validate fix
    const validation = await validateFix(implementation);
    if (!validation.success) {
      await revertFix(implementation, fix);
      // Try alternative fix
      continue;
    }

    iteration++;
  }

  // Max iterations reached
  return {
    success: false,
    iterations: maxIterations,
    error: 'Unable to resolve issues automatically',
    lastFailure: testResult.failures
  };
}
```

### Phase 4: Parameter Validation

```javascript
async function validateImplementation(implementation) {
  const issues = [];

  // 1. Parameter Consistency Check
  const functionCalls = extractFunctionCalls(implementation);
  const functionDefinitions = extractFunctionDefinitions(implementation);

  for (const call of functionCalls) {
    const definition = functionDefinitions.get(call.functionName);
    if (definition) {
      // Check parameter names match
      if (!parametersMatch(call.parameters, definition.parameters)) {
        issues.push({
          type: 'parameter_mismatch',
          function: call.functionName,
          expected: definition.parameters,
          actual: call.parameters
        });
      }

      // Check parameter types match
      if (!typesMatch(call.parameterTypes, definition.parameterTypes)) {
        issues.push({
          type: 'type_mismatch',
          function: call.functionName,
          expected: definition.parameterTypes,
          actual: call.parameterTypes
        });
      }
    }
  }

  // 2. Configuration Consistency Check
  const configFiles = await findConfigFiles();
  const configParams = await extractConfigParameters(configFiles);

  for (const call of functionCalls) {
    if (usesConfigParameter(call)) {
      const configParam = configParams.get(call.configKey);
      if (!configParam) {
        issues.push({
          type: 'undefined_config',
          configKey: call.configKey,
          location: call.location
        });
      }
    }
  }

  // 3. Type Safety Check
  const typeHints = extractTypeHints(implementation);
  const actualTypes = inferActualTypes(implementation);

  for (const [variable, hintedType] of typeHints) {
    const actualType = actualTypes.get(variable);
    if (actualType && !isCompatible(actualType, hintedType)) {
      issues.push({
        type: 'type_inconsistency',
        variable: variable,
        hinted: hintedType,
        actual: actualType
      });
    }
  }

  // 4. Null Safety Check
  const nullableVariables = findNullableVariables(implementation);
  const nullChecks = findNullChecks(implementation);

  for (const variable of nullableVariables) {
    if (!nullChecks.has(variable)) {
      issues.push({
        type: 'missing_null_check',
        variable: variable,
        risk: 'potential_null_pointer'
      });
    }
  }

  return {
    success: issues.length === 0,
    issues: issues
  };
}
```

### Phase 5: Quality Assurance

```javascript
async function checkQuality(implementation) {
  // Delegate to quality-controller agent
  const qualityResult = await delegateToAgent('quality-controller', {
    task: 'assess_quality',
    code: implementation,
    threshold: 85
  });

  return qualityResult.score;
}

async function autoFixQualityIssues(implementation) {
  // Auto-fix common issues
  const fixes = [
    fixUnusedImports,
    fixFormattingIssues,
    addMissingDocstrings,
    fixTypeHints,
    fixSecurityIssues
  ];

  for (const fix of fixes) {
    await fix(implementation);
  }
}
```

## Agent Delegation Strategy

The dev-orchestrator delegates to specialized agents:

### Code Implementation
```javascript
// Delegate to code-analyzer for structure analysis
await delegateToAgent('code-analyzer', {
  task: 'analyze_structure',
  files: modifiedFiles
});
```

### Test Generation & Debugging
```javascript
// Delegate to test-engineer for comprehensive testing
await delegateToAgent('test-engineer', {
  task: 'generate_tests',
  coverage_target: 90,
  test_types: ['unit', 'integration']
});

// Delegate for debugging
await delegateToAgent('test-engineer', {
  task: 'debug_failures',
  failures: testFailures,
  max_attempts: 5
});
```

### Quality Control
```javascript
// Delegate to quality-controller for validation
await delegateToAgent('quality-controller', {
  task: 'validate_quality',
  threshold: 85,
  auto_fix: true
});
```

### Documentation
```javascript
// Delegate to documentation-generator
await delegateToAgent('documentation-generator', {
  task: 'update_documentation',
  changes: implementationChanges
});
```

### Security Validation
```javascript
// Delegate to security-auditor
await delegateToAgent('security-auditor', {
  task: 'security_scan',
  scope: 'new_code_only'
});
```

### Frontend Specific
```javascript
// Delegate to frontend-analyzer for UI/frontend tasks
if (isFrontendTask(milestone)) {
  await delegateToAgent('frontend-analyzer', {
    task: 'validate_frontend',
    components: modifiedComponents
  });
}
```

### API Contract Validation
```javascript
// Delegate to api-contract-validator for API changes
if (isApiChange(milestone)) {
  await delegateToAgent('api-contract-validator', {
    task: 'validate_api_contract',
    endpoints: modifiedEndpoints
  });
}
```

## Root Cause Analysis System

```javascript
async function analyzeTestFailures(failures) {
  const analyses = [];

  for (const failure of failures) {
    // Categorize error
    const category = categorizeError(failure.error);

    // Extract root cause
    const rootCause = await extractRootCause(failure.stackTrace);

    // Find similar patterns
    const similarPatterns = await queryPatterns({
      error_type: category,
      stack_trace_pattern: rootCause
    });

    // Recommend fix
    const recommendedFix = selectBestFix(similarPatterns);

    analyses.push({
      failure,
      category,
      rootCause,
      similarPatterns,
      recommendedFix,
      confidence: calculateConfidence(similarPatterns)
    });
  }

  return analyses;
}

function categorizeError(error) {
  const patterns = {
    'ConnectionError': 'integration',
    'TypeError': 'type_mismatch',
    'AttributeError': 'undefined_variable',
    'KeyError': 'missing_key',
    'AssertionError': 'logic_error',
    'TimeoutError': 'performance',
    'PermissionError': 'security',
    'ImportError': 'dependency'
  };

  for (const [pattern, category] of Object.entries(patterns)) {
    if (error.includes(pattern)) {
      return category;
    }
  }

  return 'unknown';
}
```

## Common Fixes Library

```javascript
const commonFixes = {
  // Integration issues
  'connection_refused': async (context) => {
    return {
      fix: 'add_retry_logic',
      code: generateRetryLogic(context),
      success_rate: 0.95
    };
  },

  // Type issues
  'type_mismatch': async (context) => {
    return {
      fix: 'add_type_conversion',
      code: generateTypeConversion(context),
      success_rate: 0.92
    };
  },

  // Parameter issues
  'parameter_name_typo': async (context) => {
    return {
      fix: 'correct_parameter_name',
      code: correctParameterName(context),
      success_rate: 1.0
    };
  },

  // Null safety issues
  'null_pointer': async (context) => {
    return {
      fix: 'add_null_check',
      code: generateNullCheck(context),
      success_rate: 0.98
    };
  },

  // Import issues
  'missing_import': async (context) => {
    return {
      fix: 'add_import',
      code: generateImport(context),
      success_rate: 1.0
    };
  }
};
```

## Incremental Commit Strategy

```javascript
async function commitMilestone(milestone, implementation) {
  // Generate conventional commit message
  const commitMessage = generateCommitMessage(milestone, implementation);

  // Stage files
  const stagedFiles = await stageFiles(implementation.modifiedFiles);

  // Create commit
  const commit = await createCommit(commitMessage, stagedFiles);

  // Push to remote
  await pushToRemote(commit);

  // Store commit info
  await storeCommitPattern({
    milestone: milestone.name,
    commit: commit.hash,
    files_changed: stagedFiles.length,
    quality_score: implementation.qualityScore
  });
}

function generateCommitMessage(milestone, implementation) {
  const type = determineCommitType(milestone);
  const scope = extractScope(implementation);
  const description = milestone.description;

  return `${type}(${scope}): ${description}

${generateDetailedDescription(implementation)}

Files changed: ${implementation.modifiedFiles.join(', ')}
Quality score: ${implementation.qualityScore}/100
`;
}

function determineCommitType(milestone) {
  if (milestone.type === 'feature') return 'feat';
  if (milestone.type === 'bugfix') return 'fix';
  if (milestone.type === 'refactor') return 'refactor';
  if (milestone.type === 'test') return 'test';
  if (milestone.type === 'docs') return 'docs';
  return 'chore';
}
```

## Requirements Verification System

```javascript
async function verifyRequirements(originalRequest, implementation) {
  // Parse original request into checkpoints
  const checkpoints = parseRequirementCheckpoints(originalRequest);

  // Verify each checkpoint
  const verifications = [];

  for (const checkpoint of checkpoints) {
    const verified = await verifyCheckpoint(checkpoint, implementation);
    verifications.push({
      checkpoint,
      verified: verified.success,
      evidence: verified.evidence
    });
  }

  // Calculate completeness
  const completeness = verifications.filter(v => v.verified).length / verifications.length;

  return {
    complete: completeness === 1.0,
    completeness: completeness * 100,
    verifications,
    missingRequirements: verifications.filter(v => !v.verified).map(v => v.checkpoint)
  };
}

async function verifyCheckpoint(checkpoint, implementation) {
  // Different verification strategies based on checkpoint type
  switch (checkpoint.type) {
    case 'functionality':
      // Check if function/feature exists and works
      return await verifyFunctionality(checkpoint, implementation);

    case 'test_coverage':
      // Check if tests exist and pass
      return await verifyTestCoverage(checkpoint, implementation);

    case 'documentation':
      // Check if documentation exists
      return await verifyDocumentation(checkpoint, implementation);

    case 'performance':
      // Check if performance requirements met
      return await verifyPerformance(checkpoint, implementation);

    case 'security':
      // Check if security requirements met
      return await verifySecurity(checkpoint, implementation);

    default:
      return { success: false, evidence: 'Unknown checkpoint type' };
  }
}
```

## Learning Integration

The dev-orchestrator integrates deeply with the learning system:

```javascript
async function storeDevPattern(plan, results, duration) {
  const pattern = {
    pattern_id: generatePatternId(),
    task_type: plan.requirement.type,
    complexity: plan.complexity,
    milestones: plan.milestones.length,

    execution: {
      duration_minutes: duration,
      total_iterations: calculateTotalIterations(results),
      debug_loops: countDebugLoops(results),
      skills_used: extractSkillsUsed(results),
      agents_delegated: extractAgentsDelegated(results)
    },

    outcome: {
      success: results.every(r => r.status === 'success'),
      quality_score: calculateAverageQuality(results),
      completeness: calculateCompleteness(results)
    },

    common_issues: extractCommonIssues(results),
    successful_fixes: extractSuccessfulFixes(results)
  };

  await storePattern(pattern);
}
```

## Integration with Release System

```javascript
async function triggerAutoRelease(implementation, options) {
  if (options.autoRelease) {
    console.log('Triggering auto-release...');

    // Delegate to version-release-manager
    await delegateToAgent('version-release-manager', {
      task: 'create_release',
      changes: implementation.summary,
      quality_score: implementation.qualityScore,
      auto_mode: true
    });
  }
}
```

## Error Handling & Recovery

```javascript
async function handleDevelopmentFailure(milestone, error) {
  // Log detailed error
  await logError({
    milestone: milestone.name,
    error: error,
    stackTrace: error.stackTrace,
    context: error.context
  });

  // Rollback changes
  await rollbackMilestone(milestone);

  // Generate error report
  const report = await generateErrorReport({
    milestone,
    error,
    attemptedFixes: error.attemptedFixes,
    recommendations: generateRecommendations(error)
  });

  // Save report
  await saveReport(report, '.claude/reports/dev-failure.md');

  // Ask user for guidance
  await promptUser({
    message: 'Unable to complete milestone automatically',
    options: [
      'Continue with partial implementation',
      'Rollback all changes',
      'Commit current state for manual fix'
    ],
    report_path: report.path
  });
}
```

## Performance Optimization

```javascript
// Parallel task execution where possible
async function optimizeExecution(milestones) {
  // Identify independent milestones
  const dependencies = analyzeDependencies(milestones);
  const groups = groupIndependentMilestones(milestones, dependencies);

  // Execute independent milestones in parallel
  for (const group of groups) {
    if (group.length === 1) {
      await executeMilestone(group[0]);
    } else {
      await Promise.all(group.map(m => executeMilestone(m)));
    }
  }
}
```

## Suggestions Generation

After development completion, generate contextual suggestions:

```javascript
async function generateSuggestions(implementation) {
  const suggestions = [];

  // High priority: Integration testing
  if (!hasIntegrationTests(implementation)) {
    suggestions.push({
      priority: 'high',
      action: 'Add integration tests',
      command: `/dev:auto "add integration tests for ${implementation.feature}"`
    });
  }

  // Recommended: Release
  if (implementation.qualityScore >= 85) {
    suggestions.push({
      priority: 'recommended',
      action: 'Release this feature',
      command: `/dev:release --minor`
    });
  }

  // Optional: Performance optimization
  if (hasPerformanceBottlenecks(implementation)) {
    suggestions.push({
      priority: 'optional',
      action: 'Optimize performance',
      command: `/dev:auto "optimize ${identifyBottleneck(implementation)}"`
    });
  }

  return suggestions;
}
```

The dev-orchestrator agent provides comprehensive autonomous development capabilities, managing the entire lifecycle from requirements to production-ready implementation with continuous learning and improvement.
