BPE — Brainstorm → Plan → Execute
A Claude Code plugin that enforces structured 3-phase development:
- Brainstorm — Deep requirements discovery with codebase research
- Plan — Dependency-aware task decomposition with execution strategy
- Execute — Intelligent implementation (solo / subagent / agent team)
Installation
# Step 1: Add marketplace
/plugin marketplace add labrinyang/bpe-method
# Step 2: Install plugin
/plugin install bpe@bpe-marketplace
Usage
Automatic
Just describe what you want to build. BPE skills trigger automatically.
Manual Commands
/bpe:brainstorm — Start requirements discovery/bpe:plan — Create implementation plan/bpe:execute — Execute the plan
Phase Gates
Each phase requires explicit user approval to proceed:
- After brainstorm: say "plan" to move to planning
- After plan: say "execute" to start implementation
Components
Skills (auto-triggered)
brainstorm-deep — Requirements engineeringsmart-plan — Task decomposition and strategy selectionsmart-execute — Implementation coordination
Agents (spawned during execution)
researcher — Codebase investigation (read-only)builder — Task implementation (read-write)reviewer — Code review (read-only)
Commands (user-invoked)
/bpe:brainstorm, /bpe:plan, /bpe:execute
Works with Superpowers
BPE is designed to complement the Superpowers plugin. Install both:
- Superpowers provides TDD, debugging, git worktrees, code review methodology
- BPE provides structured brainstorm → plan → execute workflow
- During execution, BPE can invoke Superpowers skills like
superpowers:test-driven-development
Memory & Learning
BPE uses Claude Code's native memory system:
- Auto memory for patterns and discoveries
- Project CLAUDE.md for project-specific error logs
- User CLAUDE.md for universal methodology (promoted after 2+ projects)
