orch-build-mvp is a Claude Code skill that orchestrates bootstrapping a working MVP from a design or spec document by planning vertical slices, scaffolding, and TDD-building behind human gates.
About
orch-build-mvp is a Claude Code skill that orchestrates bootstrapping a working MVP from a design or spec document. A developer points it at an SDD or PRD, and it extracts scope and locked decisions, orders the work into thin vertical slices, scaffolds the first end-to-end slice, then TDD-implements, reviews, and commits behind two human gates. It is a thin wrapper over the shared orch-pipeline engine and reuses the GAN generator-to-evaluator harness.
- Orchestrates bootstrapping a working MVP from an SDD or PRD design document
- Plans thin vertical slices and scaffolds the first end-to-end path before broad implementation
- Reuses the GAN harness (generator to evaluator loop) to drive the build against the spec

What orch-build-mvp says it does
Orchestrate bootstrapping a working MVP from a design or spec document
order it into **thin vertical slices** (one end-to-end path first, not all-models-then-all-views).
**Reuse the existing GAN harness** instead of hand-rolling an iterate loop:

What it does
Bootstrap a working MVP from an SDD or PRD by slicing it into vertical paths, scaffolding, then TDD-building behind gates.
Who is it for?
Turning an SDD or PRD into a running vertical-slice MVP.
When should I use this skill?
The user has a design or spec document (SDD, PRD, system_design) and wants a working vertical slice bootstrapped from it.
What you get
A scaffolded first vertical slice plus subsequent TDD-built slices, each a reviewed feat: commit behind plan and pre-commit gates.
- Vertical slice plan
- Scaffolded first end-to-end slice
- GAN harness spec and eval-rubric
By the numbers
- Phase mask 0-1-2-3-4-5-6
- GAN defaults: max-iterations 15, pass-threshold 7.0
Files
orch-build-mvp
Actor · action · target: orch · build · mvp. Thin wrapper over the shared engine in `orch-pipeline`.
When to Use
- The user has a design / spec document (SDD, PRD, system_design) and wants a
working vertical slice bootstrapped from it.
- Takes a doc path as its argument, e.g.
civicpulse/docs/SDD-v0.6.md.
Operation settings
- Default size floor: large — this is the full pipeline including Scaffold.
- Phase mask: 0 (read the spec) → 1 → 2 (heavy) → 3 (scaffold) → 4 → 5 → 6.
- First move (phase 0 → 2): read the doc; extract scope, locked decisions,
and the feature list; order it into thin vertical slices (one end-to-end path first, not all-models-then-all-views). Phase 3 stands up that first slice.
How It Works
1. Run the orch-pipeline engine with the settings above. 2. Reuse the existing GAN harness instead of hand-rolling an iterate loop:
- Translate the SDD into
gan-harness/spec.md+gan-harness/eval-rubric.md
(this stands in for what gan-planner would generate — you already have the spec).
- Drive the build with
/gan-build "<one-line brief>" --skip-planner
(defaults: --max-iterations 15, --pass-threshold 7.0, --eval-mode playwright; use --eval-mode code-only for non-UI slices).
- That command runs the
gan-generator→gan-evaluatorloop and writes
gan-harness/feedback/feedback-NNN.md until the score passes or plateaus. 3. Stop at Gate 1 (slice plan) and Gate 2 (pre-commit). Commit the scaffold and each slice as separate feat: commits. 4. Add security-reviewer for any slice touching a security trigger.
Example
orch-build-mvp: civicpulse/docs/SDD-v0.6.md
→ read SDD → slice list (vertical) → scaffold slice 1 [GATE 1: approve]
→ /gan-build --skip-planner (generator → evaluator loop) scores vs spec → review
→ commit feat: [GATE 2: confirm] → next sliceRelated skills
FAQ
What input does it take?
It takes a design or spec document path such as an SDD, PRD, or system_design file.
How does it order the work?
It orders the feature list into thin vertical slices, doing one end-to-end path first rather than all-models-then-all-views.
