To implement a comprehensive platform infrastructure stack based on the Infrastructure Architecture Document, including foundation infrastructure, container orchestration, GitOps workflows, service mesh, and developer experience platforms. This integrated approach ensures all platform components work synergistically to provide a complete, secure, and operationally excellent platform foundation.
- Ask the user: "How would you like to proceed with platform infrastructure implementation? We can work:
A. **Incrementally (Default & Recommended):** We'll implement each platform layer step-by-step (Foundation → Container Platform → GitOps → Service Mesh → Developer Experience), validating integration at each stage. This ensures thorough testing and operational readiness.
B. **"YOLO" Mode:** I'll implement the complete platform stack in logical groups, with validation at major integration milestones. This is faster but requires comprehensive end-to-end testing."
- Request the user to select their preferred mode and proceed accordingly.
- Review Infrastructure Architecture Document for complete platform specifications
- Validate platform requirements against application architecture and business needs
- Create integrated implementation roadmap with proper dependency sequencing
- Plan resource allocation, security policies, and operational procedures across all platform layers
- Document rollback procedures and risk mitigation strategies for the entire platform
-<critical_rule>Verify the infrastructure change request is approved before beginning implementation. If not, HALT and inform the user.</critical_rule>
- **Resource Planning:** Confirm resource allocation, sizing, and optimization strategies
- **Risk & Constraint Discussion:**
- Identify potential implementation risks and mitigation strategies
- Document operational constraints that may impact architectural implementation
- Plan contingency approaches for high-risk implementation areas
- Establish escalation triggers for implementation issues requiring architectural input
- **Implementation Validation Planning:**
- Define validation criteria for each platform component and integration point
- Plan testing strategies and acceptance criteria with Architect input
- Establish quality gates and review checkpoints throughout implementation
- Document success metrics and performance benchmarks
- **Documentation & Knowledge Transfer Planning:**
- Plan documentation approach and knowledge transfer requirements
- Define operational runbooks and troubleshooting guide requirements
- Establish ongoing collaboration points for implementation support
-<critical_rule>Complete joint planning session before beginning platform implementation. Document all planning outcomes and agreements.</critical_rule>
### 4. Foundation Infrastructure Implementation
- **If "Incremental Mode" was selected:**
- **a. Foundation Infrastructure Setup:**
- Present foundation infrastructure scope and its role in the platform stack
- Implement core cloud resources, networking, storage, and security foundations
- Configure basic monitoring, logging, and operational tooling
- Validate foundation readiness for platform components
Present the user with the following list of 'Advanced Reflective, Elicitation & Brainstorming Actions'. Explain that these are optional steps to help ensure quality, explore alternatives, and deepen the understanding of the current platform layer before finalizing it and moving to the next. The user can select an action by number, or choose to skip this and proceed.
"To ensure the quality of the current platform layer: **[Specific Platform Layer Name]** and to ensure its robustness, explore alternatives, and consider all angles, I can perform any of the following actions. Please choose a number (8 to finalize and proceed):
**Advanced Reflective, Elicitation & Brainstorming Actions I Can Take:**
After I perform the selected action, we can discuss the outcome and decide on any further improvements for this platform layer."
REPEAT by Asking the user if they would like to perform another Reflective, Elicitation & Brainstorming Action UNTIL the user indicates it is time to proceed to the next platform layer (or selects #8)
