Research to Roadmap (r2r)
A Claude Code plugin I built overnight to transform R&D projects, POCs, and lab experiments into production-ready roadmaps.
The Pipeline
code
┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ ┌────────────┐ ┌─────────┐ ┌──────────┐ ┌────────┐ │ ASSESS │ → │ DECOMPOSE │ → │ PRIORITIZE │ → │ ROADMAP │ → │ VALIDATE │ → │ EXPORT │ └─────────┘ └───────────┘ └────────────┘ └─────────┘ └──────────┘ └────────┘
What Each Phase Does
1. ASSESS /r2r:assess
- •Analyzes research artifacts (POCs, spikes, ADRs)
- •Determines what was actually proven vs assumed
- •Gives a production readiness score (1-10)
- •Identifies gaps and technical debt
2. DECOMPOSE /r2r:decompose
- •Breaks research into shippable components
- •Single-responsibility units
- •T-shirt sizing (S/M/L/XL)
- •Maps dependencies between components
3. PRIORITIZE /r2r:prioritize
- •Effort vs impact scoring
- •Assigns to horizons:
- •H1 (0-3 months): Ship now
- •H2 (3-6 months): Build next
- •H3 (6-12 months): Explore later
- •Identifies quick wins
4. ROADMAP /r2r:roadmap
- •Generates milestone-based roadmap
- •Creates Mermaid Gantt timeline
- •Maps release phases (Internal → Private → Public → GA)
- •Multiple stakeholder views (exec/eng/PM)
5. VALIDATE /r2r:validate
- •Pre-mortem analysis ("The project failed because...")
- •Assumption audit
- •Dependency validation
- •Kill criteria check
- •Pass/Caution/Fail status
6. EXPORT /r2r:export
- •GitHub Issues + Milestones
- •Linear issues
- •Markdown summary
- •JSON for automation
Why I Built This
Most R&D work dies in the gap between "cool demo" and "production system." This plugin creates a structured path across that gap, based on patterns from GitHub Next, Linear, Vercel, and Figma's labs.
Try It
bash
/r2r:full ./path/to/research
Or run /r2r-demo to see sample output.
