# Plan Website - WBS-led website delivery planning
A website build (not just a redesign — if structure, content types, or CMS change, it's a build) is a multi-month, cross-team project. This skill creates a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) that carries the project from repository foundation through planning artifacts, implementation slices, verification, and launch.
**Important distinction:** A *redesign* only re-skins an existing site. If content types, URL structure, database, or CMS change at all, it's a **build** — treat it accordingly.
## Phase order
Always walk through phases in this order. Each phase is a dependency for the next.
0. Discovery
1. Sitemap
2. Content Strategy
3. Wireframes
4. Designs
5. Analytics Implementation Plan
6. SEO Implementation Plan
7. Development
8. QA & Launch
## How to use this skill
When a user comes with a website build question:
1. **Identify the project type and current phase** in the dependency sequence.
2. **Create or preserve the WBS** as the source of truth for build plans, delivery plans, roadmaps, Growth projects, Jira epic lists, or implementation checklists.
3. **Surface the right questions** for the current phase (see per-phase sections below).
4. **Flag missing dependencies** — if they're in Phase 4 but have no signed-off wireframes, flag it.
5. **Attach supporting artifacts** to WBS items — checklists, template lists, brief outlines, review criteria, entry criteria, exit criteria, and sign-off gates.
6. **Don't let teams
