What Running An Iteration does

Running An Iteration executes the next pending roadmap iteration by reviewing scope, baselining sentinel scenarios, dispatching implementation and evidence tasks, and updating iteration artifacts. Use it in an iterative-development loop when advancing one iteration at a time.

Running An Iteration is cataloged under AI Engineering on DirSkills. Running An Iteration comes from a repository tagged ai-agents, autonomous-agents, claude-code, claude-code-plugin and methodology.

Documentation

README

Excerpt

Running an Iteration

Overview

Drives one iteration: picks the next pending, runs sentinel corpus baseline, runs pre-iteration scope review via PAR, decomposes into code and evidence tasks, dispatches implementing-tasks, runs impacted + sentinel scenarios at wrap-up, and updates the roadmap and iteration log.

When to Use

Invoked by iterative-development inside the main loop. Each invocation runs exactly one iteration. After return, the orchestrator invokes auditing-progress.

Script Location

All scripts referenced below live in this skill's scripts/ directory, next to this SKILL.md file.

Iteration Process

1. Pick next iteration

Read docs/superpowers/iterations/roadmap.md, find the first iteration with status pending.

2. Load scope context
