classic scope
classic is the implicit default scope — used when neither the user nor
AWS_AIDLC_DEFAULT_SCOPE names one — and reproduces the AI-DLC v1 experience: the
lifecycle begins after Ideation, then adapts through Inception, Construction,
and Operation according to each stage's applicability.
Change Control defaults to relaxed: an input that changes after a human approved or confirmed it is recorded and announced in one line, and the run continues.
Why these stages, why skip those
AI-DLC v1 had no Ideation phase, so classic skips all seven Ideation stages
and keeps every stage from Inception onward in the plan. Only eight stages are
unconditional: the three Initialization stages, Requirements Analysis, Units
Generation, Delivery Planning, Code Generation, and Build and Test. The
remaining Inception design work and the Operation tail are CONDITIONAL and
self-select from the project context, preserving v1's adaptive behavior.
Its test strategy inherits Standard from its depth, so production testing
expectations remain in force. The separate workshop scope retains the
teaching-oriented Minimal test override for existing workshop workflows.
Membership
Initialization, every Inception stage, every Construction stage, and every Operation stage are in the grid; all seven Ideation stages are SKIP. The scope intentionally has no keywords and is selected by explicit name.
