📚 Core Concepts

🔄 The Enhanced OPERA Methodology

OPERA (Business-Managed Agile Development) is our revolutionary approach to AI-native development:

Context Preservation Protocol

// Zero context loss between agent switches
const contextHandoff = {
  preservedData: {
    technicalContext: "Current implementation state",
    businessContext: "Requirements and constraints",
    qualityContext: "Standards and validation results",
    securityContext: "Vulnerability assessment status"
  },
  transferProtocol: "Seamless agent transition",
  validationRequired: true
}

Quality Gates System

// Mandatory checkpoints ensuring code quality
const qualityGates = {
  preCommit: {
    testCoverage: "≥ 85%",
    securityScan: "No critical issues",
    linting: "All rules passed",
    typeChecking: "No TypeScript errors"
  },
  preMerge: {
    codeReview: "Enhanced Maria approval required",
    integrationTests: "All passing",
    performanceTests: "Within budget",
    accessibilityAudit: "WCAG 2.1 AA compliant"
  },
  preDeployment: {
    e2eTests: "Chrome MCP validation passed",
    securityAudit: "Security-Sam approval",
    performanceAudit: "Core Web Vitals compliant",
    configurationValidation: "Cross-file consistency verified"
  }
}

🤖 Agent Activation System

Agents automatically activate based on intelligent pattern recognition:

File Pattern Triggers

Enhanced-Maria (QA):
  triggers:
    - "*.test.js|ts|jsx|tsx"
    - "__tests__/**/*"
    - "cypress/**/*"
    - "*.spec.*"
  keywords: ["test", "spec", "describe", "it", "expect", "coverage"]

Enhanced-James (Frontend):
  triggers:
    - "*.jsx|tsx|vue|svelte"
    - "components/**/*"
    - "pages/**/*"
    - "*.css|scss|sass"
  keywords: ["component", "react", "vue", "css", "responsive"]

Enhanced-Marcus (Backend):
  triggers:
    - "*.api.js|ts"
    - "server/**/*"
    - "controllers/**/*"
    - "models/**/*"
  keywords: ["server", "api", "database", "auth", "security"]

Context-Aware Activation

// Intelligent agent suggestion based on code analysis
const intelligentActivation = {
  confidenceThreshold: 0.9,
  multiAgentSupport: true,
  contextAnalysis: {
    technicalStack: "React + Node.js detected",
    issuePatterns: "Configuration inconsistency found",
    recommendedAgents: ["Enhanced-Maria", "Enhanced-Marcus"],
    priority: "High - Cross-file validation needed"
  }
}
