Epic: #63 - Engineering Agents Integration
Related Issues: Part of breaking down #63 into focused implementation tasks
Epic Context
This issue is part of the larger Engineering Agents Integration epic (#63), which aims to integrate 6 collaborative engineering agents from the engineering-team-agents repository into HVE Core. The epic provides multi-platform support (GitHub Copilot + Claude Code + AGENTS.md) while enhancing the existing research → plan → implement workflow with quality gates at strategic points.
This specific issue focuses on the pre-research validation phase, adding Product Manager and UX Designer agents that validate user needs and design workflows before @task-researcher begins work.
Overview
Integrate the Product Manager Advisor and UX Designer agents to add pre-research quality gates that validate user needs and design workflows before development begins.
User Story
As a developer on the HVE Core team, I want question-first requirements validation and user journey mapping, so that I build the right features with validated user needs before starting research or implementation.
Context
- Current Gap: No validation of "should we build this?" before research begins
- Problem: Teams often research and build features without validating actual user needs or mapping user workflows
- Value Add: 30-50% faster research with targeted requirements, prevents building unwanted features
- Integration Point: Pre-gate for existing
@task-researcher agent
Source Repository
Acceptance Criteria
Technical Requirements
- Platform Support: Claude Code, GitHub Copilot (native + chatmodes), universal AGENTS.md
- Documentation Structure:
docs/product/[feature-name]-requirements.md
docs/ux/[feature-name]-journey.md
docs/templates/github-issue-template.md
docs/templates/user-journey-template.md
- Token Efficiency: File path references instead of content duplication
- Conventions: Follow HVE Core separation of concerns (agents don't mix phases)
Implementation Phases
Phase 1: Port Agents
- Adapt product-manager-advisor.md from source repository
- Adapt ux-ui-designer.md from source repository
- Create Claude versions (
.claude/agents/)
- Create GitHub native versions (
.github/agents/)
- Create GitHub chatmode versions (
.github/chatmodes/)
- Add both agents to AGENTS.md
Phase 2: Documentation Setup
- Create
docs/product/ directory
- Create
docs/ux/ directory
- Port documentation templates
- Add cross-references to existing
.github/instructions/
Phase 3: Integration & Testing
- Test agent invocation in Claude Code
- Test agent invocation in GitHub Copilot
- Validate cross-agent collaboration (PM → UX)
- Verify documentation creation workflow
- Validate backward compatibility
Definition of Done
Dependencies
- None (independent implementation)
