Developer Experience Plan Review

Improve a plan for an API, CLI, SDK, library, developer platform or its documentation. A strategy document without a developer-facing interface does not require an eight-pass DX review.

Scope and pacing

Read the supplied plan and relevant existing implementation. For a plan-only request, do not require a branch. For a hybrid request, pin the requested diff as well. Preserve settled constraints, protected paths and prior decisions.

Use the user's requested interaction mode. Otherwise batch independent findings and ask only about genuine unresolved choices that affect scope or design. Apply obvious plan corrections when improvement is requested; report-only means no edits. Honor “skip questions” immediately, state assumptions and continue useful work. An assumption does not authorize a scope change. Do not re-ask a decision already made.

Review plans, not implementation: do not modify source, commit, push or create remote tasks. Stop after the relevant acceptance criteria are addressed or report the remaining blocker. Ratings are optional summaries, not targets that require repeated polishing to 10/10.

Mode and preparation

Mode Required review scope Optional discovery
DX TRIAGE Pass 1 and Pass 3; install and first successful result only No competitor survey or broad persona exercise
DX POLISH All applicable passes, within the existing interface scope Investigate only missing context that affects a decision
DX EXPANSION All applicable passes plus proposed opportunities Targeted competitor research and broader journey exploration
