You have an idea. Here is exactly what happens next, who does the work, and when you need to step in.

Got an Idea? Here's What Happens Next.

When you say "build me X" or "I have an idea for Y", Claude doesn't just start writing code. It runs your request through an 8-phase pipeline that takes you from raw idea to a reviewed, tested, production-ready pull request — with a human review gate at the end before anything ships.

You don't need to know the phases. Claude routes everything automatically. This skill documents how that routing works so you always know where you are.
