💡 Pro Tips

Maximizing Agent Effectiveness

  1. Start High-Level: Begin with Solution Architect for big decisions
  2. Be Specific: Provide context about your project and constraints
  3. Iterate: Don't expect perfect answers first try
  4. Combine Agents: Use multiple agents for complex features
  5. Follow Templates: Use provided templates for consistency

Best Practices

  1. Always start with architecture before coding
  2. Use TypeScript Expert for complex type problems
  3. Review API Developer for API-specific concerns
  4. Keep conversations focused - one topic per chat
  5. Save important decisions in your documentation

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  1. Skipping architecture phase
  2. Using wrong agent for the task
  3. Not providing enough context
  4. Ignoring TypeScript type safety
  5. Not following testing strategies

🔗 Cross-References

Agent Interactions

  • Solution Architect → Provides architecture to all agents
  • React Developer ← → Node Backend Developer (API integration)
  • API Developer → Guides React and Node developers
  • TypeScript Expert → Helps all developers with types

Template Flow

  1. PRD Template (Planning) → Used by PM with Solution Architect
  2. Story Template (Development) → Created by Scrum Master
  3. Stories → Implemented by React, Node, or API developers
