Delivery order
Scaffold the smallest runnable application and document its commands.
done whenThe project starts from a documented command in a clean checkout.
Implement the primary data model and core workflow.
done whenThe main object can be created, read and changed end to end.
Add validation, safe failure states, and persistence.
done whenBad input is refused with a readable message and nothing is left corrupted.
Cover the critical path with automated tests.
done whenThe highest-risk behavior fails the suite when it breaks.
Exercise a clean install from the README and fix every missing step.
done whenA fresh clone reaches the first successful workflow using only the README.
That is the whole plan for Aldena. What it deliberately does not cover is below · check the gaps before you call it a replacement.
- a machine per project that someone else provisions, patches and bills by the hour
- connected GitHub, Bitbucket, Jira, Linear, Notion, Slack, Drive, Gmail, Sentry and Vercel, and the upkeep behind those tokens
- memory that outlives the run, private per agent and shared per project
- a screen a non-engineer can watch the run in and approve from
- one prepaid balance metering every model and every server hour
Need the files? The project pack on the verdict page hands your agent the whole brief · more automation.
