Workflow

Objective

Coordinate the standard delivery flow:

brief -> spec -> tdd -> code -> review -> draft-pr

This is a skill entry point, not a command wrapper. Keep the orchestration light and route work into the stage skills instead of duplicating their guidance here.

Instructions

1. Ask for the feature or change name and which stage range to run (full, partial like spec -> code, or resume from an existing artifact).
2. Check which stage artifacts already exist before asking the user to recreate them:
   • docs/briefs/
   • docs/specs/
   • docs/qa/reports/
3. For each selected stage, invoke the matching skill (brief, spec, tdd, code, review, draft-pr). Each skill self-routes via its own Invocation preface: brief, spec, tdd, code, and test run inline in the current chat under the appropriate persona, while review, draft-pr, and pr-description default to delegating to their owning subagent.
4. After each stage, summarize:
   • what was produced
   • which paths changed or were created
   • open decisions or blockers
   • the next recommended skill
5. Keep context compact. Prefer referencing existing artifact paths over restating full document contents.
6. Do not create workflow state files or command-era JSON checkpoint files in Phase 1.

PR validation (before draft-pr)

• Prefer targeted checks while iterating; do not rerun full verification on every tiny commit by default.
• Before opening or updating a PR: run a full verification pass from the repo root. Include builds when the change touches app/runtime code, config, dependencies, or anything that could affect shipped output.
• Docs-only edits (markdown with no runtime effect): a full build is not required; still run linting when the diff touches linted paths.
• On follow-up pushes to an open PR, rerun checks when the changeset meaningfully affects verified code.

Stage Outputs

• brief -> docs/briefs/{feature}.md
• spec -> docs/specs/{feature}.md
• tdd -> failing or newly added unit tests
• code -> implementation and verification results
• review -> docs/qa/reports/{date}-{branch-or-pr}.md
• draft-pr -> branch, commit, and draft PR output
