Agent skill

sparc-methodology

SPARC development workflow: Specification, Pseudocode, Architecture, Refinement, Completion. A structured approach for complex implementations that ensures thorough planning before coding. Use when: new feature implementation, complex implementations, architectural changes, system redesign, integration work, unclear requirements. Skip when: simple bug fixes, documentation updates, configuration changes, well-defined small tasks, routine maintenance.

Sparc Methodology Skill

Purpose

SPARC development workflow: Specification, Pseudocode, Architecture, Refinement, Completion. A structured approach for complex implementations that ensures thorough planning before coding.

When to Trigger

  • new feature implementation
  • complex implementations
  • architectural changes
  • system redesign
  • integration work
  • unclear requirements

When to Skip

  • simple bug fixes
  • documentation updates
  • configuration changes
  • well-defined small tasks
  • routine maintenance

Commands

Specification Phase

Define requirements, acceptance criteria, and constraints

bash
npx @claude-flow/cli hooks route --task "specification: [requirements]"

Example:

bash
npx @claude-flow/cli hooks route --task "specification: user authentication with OAuth2, MFA, and session management"

Pseudocode Phase

Write high-level pseudocode for the implementation

bash
npx @claude-flow/cli hooks route --task "pseudocode: [feature]"

Example:

bash
npx @claude-flow/cli hooks route --task "pseudocode: OAuth2 login flow with token refresh"

Architecture Phase

Design system structure, interfaces, and dependencies

bash
npx @claude-flow/cli hooks route --task "architecture: [design]"

Example:

bash
npx @claude-flow/cli hooks route --task "architecture: auth module with service layer, repository, and API endpoints"

Refinement Phase

Iterate on the design based on feedback

bash
npx @claude-flow/cli hooks route --task "refinement: [feedback]"

Example:

bash
npx @claude-flow/cli hooks route --task "refinement: add rate limiting and brute force protection"

Completion Phase

Finalize implementation with tests and documentation

bash
npx @claude-flow/cli hooks route --task "completion: [final checks]"

Example:

bash
npx @claude-flow/cli hooks route --task "completion: verify all tests pass, update API docs, security review"

SPARC Coordinator

Spawn SPARC coordinator agent

bash
npx @claude-flow/cli agent spawn --type sparc-coord --name sparc-lead

Scripts

Script Path Description
sparc-init .agents/scripts/sparc-init.sh Initialize SPARC workflow for a new feature
sparc-review .agents/scripts/sparc-review.sh Run SPARC phase review checklist

References

Document Path Description
SPARC Overview docs/sparc.md Complete SPARC methodology guide
Phase Templates docs/sparc-templates.md Templates for each SPARC phase

Best Practices

  1. Check memory for existing patterns before starting
  2. Use hierarchical topology for coordination
  3. Store successful patterns after completion
  4. Document any new learnings
