About this automation

JDS is a Copilot-tailored skill suite that enforces a strict think-plan-execute pipeline for coding agents. It leverages Copilot's built-in SQL todo dependencies and provides live task graph visualization to help visualize agentic workflows and their parallelism, preventing agents from wandering off or losing track of tasks.

How to implement

1

Define skill-based workflow structure using JDS framework

2

Implement think phase: agent analyzes task and generates plan

3

Implement plan phase: agent structures execution steps with SQL todo dependencies

4

Implement execute phase: agent runs tasks in dependency order

5

Monitor workflow with live task graph visualizer

6

Visualize parallelism opportunities and task dependencies

7

Iterate on skill definitions to improve agent focus and task completion
