## Execution Order

| Phase | Agent(s) | Parallel? | Prerequisite | CHECKPOINT |
|-------|----------|-----------|--------------|------------|
| 0 | Socratic Gate | ❌ | - | ✅ Ask 3 questions |
| 1 | Project Planner | ❌ | Questions answered | ✅ **PLAN.md created** |
| 1.5 | **PLAN VERIFICATION** | ❌ | PLAN.md exists | ✅ **File exists in root** |
| 2 | Database Architect | ❌ | Plan ready | Schema defined |
| 3 | Backend Specialist | ❌ | Schema ready | API routes created |
| 4 | Frontend Specialist | ✅ | API ready (partial) | UI components ready |
| 5 | Security Auditor, Test Engineer | ✅ | Code ready | Tests & audit pass |
| 6 | DevOps Engineer | ❌ | All code ready | Deployment ready |

> 🔴 **CRITICAL:** Phase 1.5 is MANDATORY. No specialist agents proceed without PLAN.md verification.
