PM Infrastructure

Project Management infrastructure scaffolding for solo developers using SCRUM/Agile methodologies.

Purpose

This plugin helps you set up and scaffold project management systems - NOT run the management itself. It creates the necessary infrastructure for:

• Other non-specialized agents/models to work with PM artifacts
• Solo developers using SCRUM/Agile (adapted for one person)
• Integration with GTD systems (awareness, not required)

Features

Skills

Skill	Purpose
scrum-solo	SCRUM/Agile adapted for solo developers - ceremonies, when to simplify, story pointing
pm-artifacts	PM artifact templates, naming conventions, best practices

Commands

Command	Purpose
/pm-init	Initialize new PM structure in a project (interactive)
/pm-refactor	Analyze and upgrade existing PM structure (with confirmation)
/pm-create	Create PM artifacts with AI-generated content

Agents

Agent	Purpose
pm-scaffolder	Autonomous PM infrastructure creation and analysis

Quick Start

Initialize a New Project

/pm-init

Follow the interactive prompts to:

1. Name your project
2. Choose location (./Project-Management/ or custom)
3. Select methodology (SCRUM-solo or Kanban-hybrid)
4. Get a complete PM structure with templates

Create Individual Artifacts

/pm-create epic "User Authentication System"
/pm-create story "Implement login form with validation"
/pm-create sprint

The plugin generates AI-populated content, not just empty templates.

Refactor Existing PM Structure

/pm-refactor ./Project-Management

Analyzes your existing structure and suggests improvements (with confirmation before changes).

Solo SCRUM Adaptations

This plugin implements SCRUM adapted for solo developers based on industry best practices:

Ceremonies to Keep

• Sprint Planning (~1 hour): Set goals, select stories
• Daily Check-in (~5 min): Personal reflection
• Sprint Review (~30 min): Evaluate results
• Sprint Retrospective (~30 min): What went well, what to improve

Ceremonies to Simplify

• Daily Standup → Personal check-in
• Cross-team coordination → Not needed

Kanban Elements Added

• WIP limits to prevent overload
• Visual flow optimization
• Flexible prioritization

Story Pointing Guide

Using Fibonacci sequence:

Points	Complexity	Time Estimate
1	Trivial	~1-2 hours
2	Simple	~half day
3	Moderate	~1 day
5	Significant	~2-3 days
8	Complex	~1 week
13	Very Complex	Break it down!

GTD Integration (Optional)

The plugin is GTD-aware but doesn't require it:

• PM system = operational level (detailed work tracking)
• GTD = meta level (points to PM, tracks "what's next")

When initializing, the plugin will mention GTD integration possibilities but won't require configuration.

Configuration

Create .claude/pm-infrastructure.local.md for custom settings:

---
default_location: ./Project-Management
methodology: scrum-solo
sprint_length: 1 week
gtd_path: ~/Documents/GTD
include_daily_checkin: true
wip_limit: 3
---

# PM Infrastructure Settings

Template Naming Convention

Following BEM-inspired naming:

Artifact	Pattern	Example
Epic	EN_Epic-Name.md	E1_Setup-Infrastructure.md
Story	EN-SN_Story-Name.md	E1-S1_Initialize-Project.md
Sprint	Sprint-NN/	Sprint-01/

Requirements

• Claude Code with plugin support
• No external dependencies
