Artifact Orchestration

# artifact-orchestration

Orchestrate multi-agent artifact generation with the Primary Author → Parallel Reviewers → Synthesizer → Archive pattern.

## Triggers

- "generate [artifact-type]"
- "create [SAD/test plan/deployment plan/requirements]"
- "draft [artifact]"
- "new [architecture/security/deployment] document"

## Purpose

This skill implements the core AIWG multi-agent documentation pattern that ensures high-quality artifacts through:
- Single primary author for consistency
- Parallel expert reviews for coverage
- Synthesis of feedback for conflict resolution
- Formal archival with metadata tracking

## Behavior

When triggered, this skill orchestrates:

1. **Artifact identification**:
   - Parse requested artifact type
   - Map to template and primary author
   - Identify required reviewers

2. **Workspace setup**:
   - Create `.aiwg/working/{type}/{name}/`
   - Initialize metadata via `artifact-metadata` skill
   - Load relevant template via `template-engine` skill

3. **Primary author dispatch**:
   - Launch primary author agent with template
   - Provide context (requirements, existing artifacts)
   - Receive draft v0.1

4. **Parallel review dispatch**:
   - Launch 3-5 reviewers via `parallel-dispatch` skill
   - Each reviewer analyzes from their perspective
   - Collect structured feedback

5. **Synthesis**:
   - Invoke Documentation Synthesizer agent
   - Merge feedback and resolve conflicts
   - Generate final artifact

6. **Archive**:
   - Move to `.aiwg/{category}/`
   - Update metadata to baselined
   - Update artifact index

## Usage Examples

### Generate SAD

```
User: "Create the Software Architecture Document"

Skill orchestrates:
1. Setup workspace for SAD
2. Dispatch architecture-designer with SAD template
3. Launch parallel reviews (security, test, requirements, writer)
4. Synthesize feedback
5. Archive to .aiwg/architecture/sad.md

Output:
"SAD generation complete.
Version: 1.0.0
Status: Baselined
Location: .aiwg/architecture/sad.md

Reviews:
✓ Security Architect: Approved with suggestions
✓ Test Architect: Approved
✓ Requirements Analyst: Approved
✓ Technical Writer: Approved (minor edits)

Conflicts resolved: 2
- Auth approach: Chose JWT per security recommendation
- Caching strategy: Balanced performance vs complexity"
```

### Generate with Context

```
User: "Generate deployment plan for production release"

Skill uses project-awareness context:
- Phase: Construction
- Environment: AWS
- Compliance: SOC2

Tailors template and reviewer focus accordingly.
```

## Configuration

### Custom Artifact Types

Add custom artifact configurations in `.aiwg/config/artifacts.yaml`:

```yaml
artifacts:
  custom-api-doc:
    template: custom/api-documentation
    primary_author: api-documenter
    reviewers:
      - security-auditor
      - api-designer
      - technical-writer
    output: .aiwg/architecture/api-docs/
```

### Review Depth

```yaml
review_config:
  depth: standard  # minimal, standard, comprehensive
  timeout: 300     # seconds per reviewer
  require_unanimous: false  # or true for critical artifacts
```

## Integration

This skill uses:
- `parallel-dispatch`: For launching reviewer agents
- `artifact-metadata`: For tracking artifact lifecycle
- `template-engine`: For loading and instantiating templates
- `project-awareness`: For context about current phase and state

## Error Handling

### Reviewer Timeout

If a reviewer times out:
1. Mark review as "incomplete"
2. Continue with other reviews
3. Flag in final synthesis
4. User can re-run partial review

### Conflicting Reviews

When reviewers disagree:
1. Document both positions
2. Apply priority rules:
   - Security concerns take precedence
   - Compliance concerns take precedence
   - Domain expert breaks ties
3. Record decision rationale in synthesis

### Missing Template

If template not found:
1. List similar templates
2. Offer to proceed with generic structure
3. Or abort with guidance

## Output Locations
