Completeness Checklist - Chess Game Planning Review

Review Date: 2025-11-22 Swarm ID: swarm-1763844423540-zqi6om5ev Reviewer: Reviewer Agent Status: ❌ CRITICAL - NO DELIVERABLES FOUND

---

Executive Summary

CRITICAL FINDING: The planning swarm was initialized but NO planning documentation was produced. All workers were spawned successfully, but no actual planning work was executed or documented.

Current State:

• ✅ Swarm initialized with 8 workers
• ✅ Workers spawned (researcher, coder, analyst, tester, architect, reviewer, optimizer, documenter)
• ❌ NO planning documents created
• ❌ NO specifications written
• ❌ NO architecture designed
• ❌ NO implementation plans

---

1. Chess Game Requirements Coverage

1.1 Core Chess Rules (❌ NOT ADDRESSED)

• Piece Movement Rules

  • Pawn movement (initial 2-square, single-square, diagonal capture)
  • Rook movement (horizontal/vertical)
  • Knight movement (L-shape)
  • Bishop movement (diagonal)
  • Queen movement (all directions)
  • King movement (single square)

• Special Moves

  • Castling (kingside/queenside)
  • En passant
  • Pawn promotion

• Game State Logic

  • Check detection
  • Checkmate detection
  • Stalemate detection
  • Draw conditions (50-move rule, threefold repetition, insufficient material)

• Turn Management

  • Alternating turns (white/black)
  • Move validation
  • Legal move generation

Status: ❌ 0% Complete - No rules documented

---

2. Technical Components Coverage

2.1 Frontend Components (❌ NOT SPECIFIED)

• HTML structure (chessboard, pieces, UI)
• CSS styling (board appearance, piece sprites, responsive design)
• JavaScript game logic (move handling, validation, state management)
• User interface controls (new game, undo, move history)

2.2 Data Models (❌ NOT DEFINED)

• Board representation (8x8 array, algebraic notation)
• Piece representation (type, color, position)
• Move representation (from, to, captured piece, special flags)
• Game state (current board, active player, move history, game status)

2.3 Core Algorithms (❌ NOT DESIGNED)

• Move validation algorithm
• Legal move generation
• Check/checkmate detection
• Path collision detection

Status: ❌ 0% Complete - No components specified

---

3. Documentation Coverage

3.1 Required Documentation (❌ MISSING)

• Requirements Specification - NOT CREATED
• Architecture Design - NOT CREATED
• API/Interface Documentation - NOT CREATED
• Implementation Guide - NOT CREATED
• Test Specifications - NOT CREATED
• User Stories - NOT CREATED

3.2 Code Templates (❌ MISSING)

• HTML structure template
• CSS framework template
• JavaScript module templates
• Configuration files

Status: ❌ 0% Complete - No documentation exists

---

4. Test Coverage Planning

4.1 Test Specifications (❌ NOT DEFINED)

• Unit test specifications (individual piece movements)
• Integration test specifications (game flow)
• Edge case test scenarios (special moves, boundary conditions)
• User interaction test scenarios

4.2 Test Data (❌ NOT PREPARED)

• Test board positions
• Expected move outcomes
• Invalid move scenarios
• Game ending scenarios

Status: ❌ 0% Complete - No tests specified

---

5. Implementation Readiness

5.1 Planning Completeness (❌ FAIL)

• Clear requirements defined
• Architecture documented
• Component breakdown complete
• Dependencies identified
• Technology stack chosen

5.2 Handoff Materials (❌ MISSING)

• Implementation roadmap
• File structure specification
• Coding standards defined
• Examples and references provided

Status: ❌ 0% Complete - Not ready for implementation

---

6. Gap Analysis

Critical Gaps

1. COMPLETE ABSENCE OF PLANNING OUTPUTS

   • Impact: BLOCKER - Cannot proceed to implementation
   • Required: All planning documentation must be created

2. No Chess Rules Specification

   • Impact: HIGH - Implementation team won't know what to build
   • Required: Complete chess rules documentation

3. No Architecture Design

   • Impact: HIGH - No technical guidance for implementation
   • Required: System architecture, component design, data models

4. No Test Strategy

   • Impact: MEDIUM - Quality cannot be ensured
   • Required: Test specifications and test cases

5. No Implementation Guide

   • Impact: HIGH - Implementation team has no direction
   • Required: Step-by-step implementation plan

Missing Deliverables

Expected in docs/ subdirectories:

• docs/research/ - Chess rules, best practices, reference implementations
• docs/architecture/ - System design, component diagrams, data models
• docs/implementation/ - Code templates, file structure, implementation plan
• docs/testing/ - Test specifications, test cases, coverage requirements
• docs/analysis/ - Feasibility analysis, complexity assessment

Actual: ALL directories exist but are EMPTY

OVERALL	100%	0%	❌ 0/50

8. Recommendations

Immediate Actions Required

1. RE-EXECUTE PLANNING SWARM

   • The swarm was initialized but workers didn't produce outputs
   • Need to trigger actual work execution for each worker
   • Ensure outputs are saved to docs/ subdirectories

2. Worker-Specific Deliverables

   • Researcher: Chess rules, best practices, reference implementations
   • Architect: System architecture, component design, data models
   • Coder: Code templates, implementation patterns, file structure
   • Tester: Test specifications, test cases, coverage plan
   • Analyst: Complexity analysis, feasibility assessment
   • Documenter: User guides, API docs, implementation guide
   • Optimizer: Performance considerations, optimization strategies
   • Reviewer: Quality checkpoints, acceptance criteria

3. Coordination Protocol

   • Ensure workers coordinate via hooks and shared memory
   • Aggregate all outputs before handoff
   • Create master planning document linking all deliverables

---

9. Approval Status

APPROVAL: ❌ REJECTED - NOT READY FOR IMPLEMENTATION

Reason: No planning work was completed. The swarm infrastructure exists but no actual planning deliverables were created.

Next Steps:

1. Re-run planning swarm with proper work execution
2. Verify each worker produces required outputs
3. Collect and organize all planning documents
4. Re-submit for review once deliverables exist

---

10. Sign-Off

Reviewer: Reviewer Agent (Worker 6) Review Status: INCOMPLETE - NO ARTIFACTS TO REVIEW Recommendation: BLOCK IMPLEMENTATION - RETURN TO PLANNING PHASE Re-Review Required: YES - After planning deliverables are created

---

Note: This review cannot assess quality, consistency, or implementation readiness because there are no planning artifacts to review. The planning phase must be completed before proceeding to implementation.
