# Workflow Execute Command (/workflow:execute)
# Workflow Execute Command
## Overview
Coordinates multiple agents for executing existing workflow tasks through automatic discovery and intelligent task orchestration. Analyzes workflow folders, checks task statuses, and coordinates agent execution based on discovered plans.
## Core Principles
Coordinates agents for executing workflow tasks through automatic discovery and orchestration. Discovers plans, checks statuses, and executes ready tasks with complete context.
## Execution Philosophy
- **Discovery-first**: Auto-discover existing plans and tasks
- **Status-aware**: Execute only ready tasks
- **Context-rich**: Use complete task JSON data for agents
- **Progress tracking**: Update status after completion
The intelligent execution approach focuses on:
- **Discovery-first execution** - Automatically discover existing plans and tasks
- **Status-aware coordination** - Execute only tasks that are ready
- **Context-rich agent assignment** - Use complete task JSON data for agent context
- **Dynamic task orchestration** - Coordinate based on discovered task relationships
- **Progress tracking** - Update task status after agent completion
**Flow Control Execution**:
- **[FLOW_CONTROL]**: Indicates sequential flow control execution required
- **Auto-trigger**: When task.flow_control.pre_analysis is an array (default format)
- **Agent Action**: Execute flow control steps sequentially BEFORE implementation begins
- Process each step with command execution and context accumulation
- Load dependency summaries and parent task context
- Execute CLI tools, scripts, and agent commands as specified
- Pass context between steps via named variables
- Handle errors according to per-step error strategies
**Flow Control Step Processing**:
- **Sequential Execution**: Steps processed in order with context flow
- Each step can use outputs from previous steps via ${variable_name}
- Dependency summaries loaded automatically from .summaries/
- Context accumulates through the execution chain
- Error handling per step (skip_optional, fail, retry_once, manual_intervention)
## Flow Control Execution
**[FLOW_CONTROL]** marker indicates sequential step execution required:
- **Auto-trigger**: When `task.flow_control.pre_analysis` exists
- **Process**: Execute steps sequentially BEFORE implementation
- Load dependency summaries and parent context
- Execute CLI tools, scripts, and commands as specified
- Pass context between steps via `${variable_name}`
- Handle errors per step strategy

├── Scan .task/ directory for task JSON files
├── Analyze task statuses and dependencies
└── Determine executable tasks
└── Build execution queue of ready tasks
```
**Discovery Logic:**
- **Folder Detection**: Use provided folder or find current active session
- **Task Inventory**: Load all IMPL-*.json files from .task/ directory
- **Status Analysis**: Check pending/active/completed/blocked states
- **Dependency Check**: Verify all task dependencies are met
- **Execution Queue**: Build list of ready-to-execute tasks

**Context Assignment Rules:**
- **Complete Context**: Use full task JSON context including flow_control field for agent execution
- **Flow Control Processing**: Execute flow_control.pre_analysis steps sequentially with context accumulation
- **Dependency Integration**: Load summaries from context.depends_on automatically
- **Mandatory Dependency Reading**: For tasks with dependencies, MUST read previous task summary documents
- **Context Inheritance**: Use dependency summaries to maintain consistency and include context.inherited data from parent tasks
- **Workflow Integration**: Include session state and IMPL_PLAN.md context
- **Focus Scope**: Direct agents to specific paths from context.focus_paths array
- **Flow Control Marker**: Auto-add [FLOW_CONTROL] when flow_control.pre_analysis exists
- **Target File Guidance**: Use flow_control.target_files for precise file targeting

```pseudo
function analyze_tasks(task_files):
executable_tasks = []
for task in task_files:
if task.status == "pending" and dependencies_met(task):
if task.subtasks.length == 0: // leaf task
executable_tasks.append(task)
else: // container task - check subtasks
if all_subtasks_ready(task):
executable_tasks.extend(task.subtasks)
return executable_tasks
### Task Status Logic
```
pending + dependencies_met → executable
completed → skip
blocked → skip until dependencies clear
```
### Automatic Agent Assignment
Based on discovered task data:
- **task.agent field**: Use specified agent from task JSON
- **task.type analysis**:
### Agent Assignment
- **task.agent field**: Use specified agent
- **task.type fallback**:
- "feature" → code-developer
- "test" → code-review-test-agent
- "docs" → code-developer
- "test" → code-review-test-agent
- "review" → code-review-agent
- **Gemini context**: Auto-assign based on task.context.scope and requirements
## Agent Task Assignment Patterns
### Discovery-Based Assignment
```bash
# Agent receives complete discovered context with saturation handling
Task(subagent_type="code-developer",
prompt="[FLOW_CONTROL] Execute IMPL-1.2: Analyze and implement auth logic
TASK TYPE: Saturated task (preparation_complexity: simple)
PREPARATION PHASE:
- Review existing auth patterns and conventions
- Check JWT library compatibility
- Analyze current session management
EXECUTION PHASE:
Implement JWT authentication based on preparation findings
Context from discovery:
- Requirements: JWT authentication, OAuth2 support
- Scope: src/auth/*, tests/auth/*
- Dependencies: IMPL-1.1 (completed)
- Workflow: WFS-user-auth authentication system
Session Context:
- Workflow Directory: .workflow/WFS-user-auth/
- TODO_LIST Location: .workflow/WFS-user-auth/TODO_LIST.md
- Summaries Directory: .workflow/WFS-user-auth/.summaries/
- Task JSON: .workflow/WFS-user-auth/.task/IMPL-1.2.json
Focus Paths: $(~/.claude/scripts/read-task-paths.sh .workflow/WFS-user-auth/.task/IMPL-1.2.json)
Analysis Command: Use ~/.claude/scripts/gemini-wrapper -p \"$(~/.claude/scripts/read-task-paths.sh .workflow/WFS-user-auth/.task/IMPL-1.2.json) @{CLAUDE.md}\"
CRITICAL:
1. Execute preparation phase first, then use findings for implementation
2. Use task-specific paths for focused analysis
3. Document both phases in completion summary
4. Update TODO_LIST.md and create completion summary using provided paths.",
description="Agent executes saturated task with preparation and implementation phases")
```
### Status Tracking Integration
```bash
# After agent completion, update discovered task status
update_task_status("IMPL-1.2", "completed")
mark_dependent_tasks_ready(task_dependencies)
```
## Coordination Strategies
### Automatic Coordination
- **Task Dependencies**: Execute in dependency order from discovered relationships
- **Agent Handoffs**: Pass results between agents based on task hierarchy
- **Progress Updates**: Update TodoWrite and JSON files after each completion
### Context Distribution
- **Rich Context**: Each agent gets complete task JSON + workflow context
- **Focus Areas**: Direct agents to specific files from task.context.scope
- **Inheritance**: Subtasks inherit parent context automatically
- **Session Integration**: Include workflow-session.json state in agent context
## Status Management
## Status Management & Coordination
### Task Status Updates
```json
// Before execution
{
"id": "IMPL-1.2",
"status": "pending",
"execution": {
"attempts": 0,
"last_attempt": null
}
}
{ "id": "IMPL-1.2", "status": "pending", "execution": { "attempts": 0 } }
// After execution
{
"id": "IMPL-1.2",
"status": "completed",
"execution": {
"attempts": 1,
"last_attempt": "2025-09-08T14:30:00Z"
}
}
// After execution
{ "id": "IMPL-1.2", "status": "completed", "execution": { "attempts": 1, "last_attempt": "2025-09-08T14:30:00Z" } }
```
### Session State Updates
```json
{
"current_phase": "EXECUTE",
"last_execute_run": "2025-09-08T14:30:00Z"
}
```
### Coordination Strategies
- **Dependencies**: Execute in dependency order
- **Agent Handoffs**: Pass results between agents
- **Progress Updates**: Update TodoWrite and JSON files
- **Context Distribution**: Complete task JSON + workflow context
- **Focus Areas**: Direct agents to specific paths from task.context.focus_paths
## Error Handling & Recovery
## Error Handling
### Discovery Issues
```bash
# No active session found
❌ No active workflow session found
→ Use: /workflow:session:start "project name" first
# No executable tasks
⚠️ All tasks completed or blocked
→ Check: /context for task status overview
# Missing task files
❌ Task IMPL-1.2 referenced but JSON file missing
→ Fix: /task/create or repair task references
No active workflow session → Use: /workflow:session:start "project"
⚠️ All tasks completed/blocked → Check: /context for status
❌ Missing task files → Fix: /task/create or repair references
```
### Execution Recovery
- **Failed Agent**: Retry with adjusted context or different agent
- **Failed Agent**: Retry with adjusted context
- **Blocked Dependencies**: Skip and continue with available tasks
- **Context Issues**: Reload from JSON files and session state
## Integration Points
## Integration & Next Steps
### Automatic Behaviors
- **Discovery on start** - Analyze workflow folder structure
- **TodoWrite coordination** - Generate based on discovered tasks
- **Agent context preparation** - Use complete task JSON data
- **Status synchronization** - Update JSON files after completion
- Discovery on start - analyze workflow folder structure
- TodoWrite coordination - generate based on discovered tasks

# Workflow Plan Command (/workflow:plan)
## Overview
Creates actionable implementation plans with intelligent input source detection. Supports text, files, issues, and templates through automatic recognition.
## Core Principles
**File Structure:** @~/.claude/workflows/workflow-architecture.md
**Dependency Context Rules:**
- **For tasks with dependencies**: MUST read previous task summary documents before planning
- **Context inheritance**: Use dependency summaries to maintain consistency and avoid duplicate work
# Workflow Plan Command
## Usage
```bash
/workflow:plan [--AM gemini|codex] <input>
/workflow:plan [--AM gemini|codex] [--analyze|--deep] <input>
```
### Analysis Method Flag (--AM)
Optional flag to specify which CLI tool to use for context analysis:
- **gemini** (default): Uses Gemini CLI for pattern-based analysis, architectural understanding, and broader context acquisition
- **codex**: Uses Codex CLI for autonomous development context gathering with intelligent file discovery
## Input Detection
- **Files**: `.md/.txt/.json/.yaml/.yml` → Reads content and extracts requirements
- **Issues**: `ISS-*`, `ISSUE-*`, `*-request-*` → Loads issue data and acceptance criteria
- **Text**: Everything else → Parses natural language requirements
**Examples**:
```bash
/workflow:plan --AM codex "Build authentication system"
/workflow:plan --AM gemini requirements.md
```
## Analysis Levels
- **Quick** (default): Structure only (5s)
- **--analyze**: Structure + context analysis (30s)
- **--deep**: Structure + comprehensive parallel analysis (1-2m)
## Input Detection Logic
The command automatically detects input type:
## Core Rules
### File Input (Auto-detected)
```bash
/workflow:plan requirements.md
/workflow:plan config.json
```
**Triggers**: Extensions: .md, .txt, .json, .yaml, .yml
**Processing**: Reads file contents and extracts requirements
### File Structure Reference
**Architecture**: @~/.claude/workflows/workflow-architecture.md
### Issue Input (Auto-detected)
```bash
/workflow:plan ISS-001
/workflow:plan ISSUE-123
```
**Triggers**: Patterns: ISS-*, ISSUE-*, *-request-*
**Processing**: Loads issue data and acceptance criteria
### Task Limits & Decomposition
- **Maximum 10 tasks**: Hard enforced limit - projects exceeding must be re-scoped
- **Function-based decomposition**: By complete functional units, not files/steps
- **File cohesion**: Group related files (UI + logic + tests + config) in same task
- **Task saturation**: Merge "analyze + implement" by default (0.5 count for complex prep tasks)
### Text Input (Default)
```bash
/workflow:plan "Build user authentication with JWT and OAuth2"
```
**Triggers**: Everything else
**Processing**: Parse natural language requirements
## Automatic Behaviors
### Pre-Planning Analysis (CRITICAL)
⚠️ **Must complete BEFORE generating any plan documents**
1. **Complexity assessment**: Count total saturated tasks
2. **Decomposition strategy**: Flat (≤5) | Hierarchical (6-10) | Re-scope (>10)
3. **File grouping**: Identify cohesive file sets
4. **Quantity prediction**: Estimate main tasks, subtasks, container vs leaf ratio
### Session Management
- Creates new session if none exists
- Uses active session if available
- Generates session ID: WFS-[topic-slug]
- **Active session check**: Check for `.workflow/.active-*` marker first
- Auto-creates new session: `WFS-[topic-slug]`
- Uses existing active session if available
- **Dependency context**: MUST read previous task summary documents before planning
### Pre-Planning Analysis
⚠️ **CRITICAL**: Determine decomposition strategy BEFORE generating any plan documents
## Task Patterns
**Required Pre-Analysis Steps**:
1. **Complexity Assessment**: Analyze requirements to determine total saturated task count
2. **Decomposition Strategy**: Based on complexity, decide:
- Task structure (flat vs hierarchical)
- Re-scoping necessity (>10 tasks triggers re-scoping)
- Task saturation level (merged vs separated)
- File grouping strategy (cohesive files together)
3. **Quantity Prediction**: Calculate expected:
- Total main tasks (IMPL-XXX)
- Subtasks per main task (IMPL-N.M)
- Container vs leaf task ratio
### ✅ Correct (Function-based)
- `IMPL-001: User authentication system` (models + routes + components + middleware + tests)
- `IMPL-002: Data export functionality` (service + routes + UI + utils + tests)
**Pre-Planning Outputs**:
- Complexity level: Simple (≤5) | Medium (6-10) | Over-scoped (>10, requires re-scoping)
- Decomposition approach: Flat | Two-level hierarchy | Re-scope required
- Estimated task count: [number] main tasks, [number] total leaf tasks (max 10)
- Document set: Which documents will be generated (IMPL_PLAN.md, TODO_LIST.md, .task/*.json)
- **Re-scoping recommendation**: If >10 tasks, provide guidance for breaking into iterations
**Only after completing pre-planning analysis**: Proceed to generate actual plan documents
### Complexity Detection with Saturation
*Based on Pre-Planning Analysis results:*
- **Simple**: ≤5 saturated tasks → Direct IMPL_PLAN.md
- **Medium**: 6-10 saturated tasks → IMPL_PLAN.md + TODO_LIST.md
- **Complex**: Exceeding 10 tasks requires re-scoping (maximum enforced)
**10-Task Hard Limit**: Projects exceeding 10 tasks must be re-scoped into smaller iterations
**Note**: 1 complex preparation task = 0.5 saturated task for counting
### Task Granularity Principles
- **Decompose by function, not by file**: Each task should complete a whole functional unit
- **Maintain functional integrity**: Each task produces independently runnable or testable functionality
- **Group related files together**: Keep related files (UI, logic, tests, config) in same task
- **File cohesion rule**: Files that work together should be modified in the same task
- **Avoid technical step decomposition**: Don't make "create file" or "add function" as separate tasks
- **Maximum 10 tasks**: Hard limit enforced; re-scope if exceeded
### Task Decomposition Anti-patterns
**Wrong Example - File/Step-based Decomposition**:
- IMPL-001: Create database model
- IMPL-002: Create API endpoint
- IMPL-003: Create frontend component
- IMPL-004: Add routing configuration
- IMPL-005: Write unit tests
**Wrong Example - Same File Split Across Tasks**:
- IMPL-001: Add authentication routes to routes/auth.js
- IMPL-002: Add user validation to routes/auth.js
- IMPL-003: Add session handling to routes/auth.js
**Correct Example - Function-based with File Cohesion**:
- IMPL-001: Implement user authentication (includes models/User.js, routes/auth.js, components/LoginForm.jsx, middleware/auth.js, tests/auth.test.js)
- IMPL-002: Implement data export functionality (includes services/export.js, routes/export.js, components/ExportButton.jsx, utils/fileGenerator.js, tests/export.test.js)
**Correct Example - Related Files Grouped**:
- IMPL-001: User management system (includes User model, UserController, UserService, user routes, user tests)
- IMPL-002: Product catalog system (includes Product model, ProductController, catalog components, product tests)
### Task Generation with Saturation Control
*Using decomposition strategy determined in Pre-Planning Analysis:*
- **Task Saturation Assessment**: Evaluates whether to merge preparation and execution
- **Default merge mode**: "Analyze and implement X" instead of "Analyze X" + "Implement X"
- **Smart splitting**: Only separate when preparation complexity > threshold
- Automatically creates .task/ files when complexity warrants
- Generates hierarchical task structure (max 2 levels)
- Main tasks with subtasks become container tasks (not directly executable)
- Updates session state with task references
- Runs project structure analysis to populate paths field
### Project Analysis Options
Three analysis levels available:
```bash
# Quick - Structure only (5 seconds)
/workflow:plan "requirements"
# Standard - Structure + Gemini analysis (30 seconds)
/workflow:plan --analyze "requirements"
# Deep - Structure + Parallel comprehensive analysis (1-2 minutes)
/workflow:plan --deep "requirements"
```
**Analysis Selection**:
- Default: Auto-selects based on project complexity
- Manual: Use flags to override automatic selection
- Strategy: See @~/.claude/workflows/intelligent-tools-strategy.md for tool selection principles
**Execution**:
1. Always runs `get_modules_by_depth.sh` for structure
2. Applies selected analysis level
3. Populates task paths automatically
### Task Saturation Assessment
Evaluates whether to merge preparation and execution within 10-task limit:
**Default Merge Principles** (Saturated Tasks):
- All components of the same functional module
- Related files that work together (UI, logic, tests, config)
- Features with their corresponding tests and documentation
- Configuration with its usage code
- Multiple small interdependent functions
- Files that share common interfaces or data structures
**Only Separate Tasks When**:
- Completely independent functional modules (no shared code or interfaces)
- Independent services with different tech stacks (e.g., separate deployment units)
- Modules requiring different expertise (e.g., ML model training vs Web development)
- Large features with clear sequential dependencies
- **Critical**: Would exceed 10-task limit otherwise
**File Cohesion Examples**:
- **Merged**: "IMPL-001: Implement user authentication (includes models/User.js, routes/auth.js, components/LoginForm.jsx, tests/auth.test.js)"
- **Separated**: "IMPL-001: User service authentication" + "IMPL-002: Admin dashboard authentication" (different user contexts)
**10-Task Compliance**: Always prioritize related file grouping to stay within limit
### Task Breakdown Process
- **Automatic decomposition**: Only when task count >10 triggers re-scoping (not decomposition)
- **Function-based decomposition**: Split by independent functional boundaries, not by technical layers
- **Container tasks**: Parent tasks with subtasks become containers (marked with ▸ in TODO_LIST)
- **Smart decomposition**: AI analyzes task title to suggest logical functional subtask structure
- **Complete unit principle**: Each subtask must still represent a complete functional unit
- **Context inheritance**: Subtasks inherit parent's requirements and scope, refined for specific needs
- **Agent assignment**: Automatic agent mapping based on subtask type (planning/code/test/review)
- **Maximum depth**: 2 levels (IMPL-N.M) to maintain manageable hierarchy
- **10-task enforcement**: Exceeding 10 tasks requires project re-scoping
### Flow Control Field Requirements
- **flow_control**: Universal process manager containing:
- `pre_analysis`: Array of sequential process steps with:
- `step`: Unique identifier for the step
- `action`: Human-readable description
- `command`: Executable command with embedded context variables (e.g., `${variable_name}`)
- `output_to`: Variable name to store step results (optional for final steps)
- `on_error`: Error handling strategy
- `implementation_approach`: Brief one-line strategy description
- `target_files`: Array of "file:function:lines" format strings
- **Auto-generation**: Creates flow based on task type and complexity
- **Required fields**: meta (type, agent), context (requirements, focus_paths, acceptance, depends_on), flow_control
- **Focus paths format**: Array of strings (e.g., ["src/auth", "tests/auth", "config/auth.json"])
## Session Check Process
⚠️ **CRITICAL**: Check for existing active session before planning
1. **Check Active Session**: Check for `.workflow/.active-*` marker file
2. **Session Selection**: Use existing active session or create new
3. **Context Integration**: Load session state and existing context
### ❌ Wrong (File/step-based)
- `IMPL-001: Create database model`
- `IMPL-002: Create API endpoint`
- `IMPL-003: Create frontend component`

- Leaf tasks use standard `- [ ]` / `- [x]` checkboxes
- Indentation shows hierarchy (2 spaces per level)
- Container tasks represent logical grouping, not executable items
**Only Separate When**:
- Completely independent functional modules
- Different tech stacks or deployment units
- Would exceed 10-task limit otherwise
### Task JSON Files (Auto-created)
Generated in .task/ directory when decomposition enabled
## Flow Control Schema
Each task.json includes required fields:
- **meta**: type, agent assignment
- **context**: requirements, focus_paths, acceptance, depends_on
- **flow_control**:
- `pre_analysis`: Steps with commands and context variables (${var})
- `implementation_approach`: One-line strategy
- `target_files`: "file:function:lines" format
## Execution Integration
Documents created for `/workflow:execute`:
- **IMPL_PLAN.md**: Context loading and requirements
- **.task/*.json**: Agent implementation context
- **TODO_LIST.md**: Status tracking (container tasks with ▸, leaf tasks with checkboxes)
## Error Handling
- **Vague input**: Auto-reject ("fix it", "make better", etc.)
- **File not found**: Clear suggestions
- **>10 tasks**: Force re-scoping into iterations
### Input Processing Errors
- **File not found**: Clear error message with suggestions
- **Invalid issue**: Verify issue ID exists
- **Unknown template**: List available templates
- **Empty input**: Prompt for valid input
- **Vague text input**: Auto-reject without guidance
- Rejected examples: "do something", "fix it", "make it better", "add feature"
- Response: Direct rejection message, no further assistance
### Recommended Task Patterns
#### Complete Feature Implementation
"Implement user management system" - includes all related files: models/User.js, controllers/UserController.js, routes/users.js, components/UserList.jsx, services/UserService.js, tests/user.test.js
#### End-to-End Features
"Add Excel export functionality" - includes cohesive file set: services/ExportService.js, utils/excelGenerator.js, routes/export.js, components/ExportButton.jsx, middleware/downloadHandler.js, tests/export.test.js
#### System Integration
"Integrate payment gateway" - includes integration files: services/PaymentService.js, controllers/PaymentController.js, models/Payment.js, components/PaymentForm.jsx, webhooks/paymentWebhook.js, tests/payment.test.js
#### Problem Resolution
"Fix and optimize search functionality" - includes related files: services/SearchService.js, utils/searchOptimizer.js, components/SearchBar.jsx, controllers/SearchController.js, tests/search.test.js
#### Module Development
"Create notification system" - includes module files: services/NotificationService.js, models/Notification.js, templates/emailTemplates.js, components/NotificationCenter.jsx, workers/notificationQueue.js, tests/notification.test.js
**File Cohesion Principle**: Each task includes ALL files that work together to deliver the complete functionality
**System ensures**: Unified planning interface with intelligent input detection, function-based task granularity, file cohesion enforcement, and 10-task maximum limit

# Workflow Architecture
## Overview & Core Principles
## Overview
This document defines a streamlined workflow system architecture featuring **JSON-only data model**, **marker-based session management**, and **unified file structure** with dynamic task decomposition.
This document defines the complete workflow system architecture using a **JSON-only data model**, **marker-based session management**, and **unified file structure** with dynamic task decomposition.
### Design Philosophy
- **JSON-first data model** - JSON files are single source of truth; markdown is generated views
- **Marker-based sessions** - Ultra-simple active session tracking via marker files
- **Unified structure** - Same file template for all workflows, created on-demand
- **Dynamic decomposition** - Tasks break down as needed during execution
- **On-demand creation** - Files and directories created only when required
- **Agent autonomy** - Complete context preserved for independent execution
## Core Architecture Principles
## Data Architecture
### Key Design Decisions
- **JSON files are the single source of truth** - All markdown documents are read-only generated views
- **Marker files for session tracking** - Ultra-simple active session management
- **Unified file structure definition** - Same structure template for all workflows, created on-demand
- **Dynamic task decomposition** - Subtasks created as needed during execution
- **On-demand file creation** - Directories and files created only when required
- **Agent-agnostic task definitions** - Complete context preserved for autonomous execution
### JSON-Only Data Model
**Core Principle**: JSON files are the authoritative source; markdown documents are read-only generated views.
## Session Management
- **Task State**: Stored exclusively in `.task/IMPL-*.json` files
### Active Session Marker System
**Ultra-Simple Active Tracking**: `.workflow/.active-[session-name]`
```bash
.workflow/
├── WFS-oauth-integration/ # Session directory (paused)
├── WFS-user-profile/ # Session directory (paused)
├── WFS-bug-fix-123/ # Session directory (completed)
└── .active-WFS-user-profile # Marker file (indicates active session)
```
**Marker File Benefits**:
- **Zero Parsing**: File existence check is atomic and instant
- **Atomic Operations**: File creation/deletion is naturally atomic
- **Visual Discovery**: `ls .workflow/.active-*` shows active session immediately
- **Simple Switching**: Delete old marker + create new marker = session switch
### Session Operations
#### Detect Active Session
```bash
active_session=$(find .workflow -name ".active-*" | head -1)
if [ -n "$active_session" ]; then
session_name=$(basename "$active_session" | sed 's/^\.active-//')
echo "Active session: $session_name"
fi
```
#### Switch Session
```bash
find .workflow -name ".active-*" -delete && touch .workflow/.active-WFS-new-feature
```
### Individual Session Tracking
Each session directory contains `workflow-session.json`:
```json
{
"session_id": "WFS-[topic-slug]",
"project": "feature description",
"type": "simple|medium|complex",
"current_phase": "PLAN|IMPLEMENT|REVIEW",
"status": "active|paused|completed",
"progress": {
"completed_phases": ["PLAN"],
"current_tasks": ["IMPL-1", "IMPL-2"]
}
}
```
## Data Model
### JSON-Only Architecture
**JSON files (.task/IMPL-*.json) are the only authoritative source of task state. All markdown documents are read-only generated views.**
- **Task State**: Stored exclusively in JSON files
- **Documents**: Generated on-demand from JSON data
- **No Synchronization**: Eliminates bidirectional sync complexity
- **Performance**: Direct JSON access without parsing overhead

## Session Management
## File Structure
### Active Session Marker System
**Ultra-Simple Tracking**: `.workflow/.active-[session-name]`
```bash
.workflow/
├── WFS-oauth-integration/ # Session directory (paused)
├── WFS-user-profile/ # Session directory (paused)
├── WFS-bug-fix-123/ # Session directory (completed)
└── .active-WFS-user-profile # Marker file (active session)

- **Atomic Operations**: File creation/deletion is naturally atomic
- **Visual Discovery**: `ls .workflow/.active-*` shows active session
- **Simple Switching**: Delete old + create new marker

```
### Creation Strategy
- **Initial**: Only `workflow-session.json`, `IMPL_PLAN.md`, `TODO_LIST.md`, `.task/`
- **On-Demand**:
- `.brainstorming/` → When brainstorming initiated
- `.chat/` → When analysis commands executed
- `.summaries/` → When first task completed
#### Creation Strategy
- **Initial Setup**: Create only `workflow-session.json`, `IMPL_PLAN.md`, `TODO_LIST.md`, and `.task/` directory
- **On-Demand Creation**: Other directories created when first needed:
- `.brainstorming/` → When brainstorming phase is initiated
- `.chat/` → When CLI analysis commands are executed
- `.summaries/` → When first task is completed
- **Dynamic Files**: Subtask JSON files created during task decomposition
### Naming Conventions
- **Sessions**: `WFS-[topic-slug]` (lowercase with hyphens)
- **Conflicts**: Add `-NNN` suffix if needed
- **Documents**: Standard names (`workflow-session.json`, `IMPL_PLAN.md`, etc.)
- **Chat**: `chat-analysis-*.md`
- **Summaries**: `IMPL-[task-id]-summary.md`
### File Naming Conventions
## Workflow Classification
#### Session Identifiers
**Format**: `WFS-[topic-slug]`
- Convert topic to lowercase with hyphens (e.g., "User Auth System" → `WFS-user-auth-system`)
- Add `-NNN` suffix only if conflicts exist (e.g., `WFS-payment-integration-002`)
### Complexity Types
**Based on task count and decomposition needs:**
#### Document Naming
- `workflow-session.json` - Session state (required)
- `IMPL_PLAN.md` - Planning document (required)
- `TODO_LIST.md` - Progress tracking (auto-generated when needed)
- Chat sessions: `chat-analysis-*.md`
- Task summaries: `IMPL-[task-id]-summary.md`
| Type | Tasks | Depth | Behavior |
|------|-------|-------|----------|
| **Simple** | ≤5 | 1 level | Direct execution, minimal decomposition |
| **Medium** | 6-10 | 2 levels | Moderate decomposition, context coordination |
| **Over-scope** | >10 | Re-scope | Requires project re-scoping into iterations |
## Complexity Classification
### Characteristics
### Task Complexity Rules
**Complexity is determined by task count and decomposition needs:**
**Simple**: Bug fixes, small features, config changes
- Single-level tasks, direct execution, ≤5 tasks
| Complexity | Task Count | Hierarchy Depth | Decomposition Behavior |
|------------|------------|----------------|----------------------|
| **Simple** | <5 tasks | 1 level (IMPL-N) | Direct execution, minimal decomposition |
| **Medium** | 5-15 tasks | 2 levels (IMPL-N.M) | Moderate decomposition, context coordination |
| **Complex** | >15 tasks | 2 levels (IMPL-N.M) | Frequent decomposition, multi-agent orchestration |
**Medium**: New features, API endpoints, schema changes
- Two-level hierarchy, context coordination, 6-10 tasks
### Simple Workflows
**Characteristics**: Direct implementation tasks with clear, limited scope
- **Examples**: Bug fixes, small feature additions, configuration changes
- **Task Decomposition**: Usually single-level tasks, minimal breakdown needed
- **Agent Coordination**: Direct execution without complex orchestration
**Over-scope**: Major features exceeding 10 tasks
- Requires re-scoping into smaller iterations, never >10 tasks
### Medium Workflows
**Characteristics**: Feature implementation requiring moderate task breakdown
- **Examples**: New features, API endpoints with integration, database schema changes
- **Task Decomposition**: Two-level hierarchy when decomposition is needed
- **Agent Coordination**: Context coordination between related tasks
### Assessment Rules
- **Creation**: System evaluates and assigns complexity
- **10-task limit**: Hard limit enforced - exceeding requires re-scoping
- **Execution**: Can upgrade (Simple→Medium→Over-scope), triggers re-scoping
- **Override**: Users can manually specify complexity within 10-task limit
### Complex Workflows
**Characteristics**: System-wide changes requiring detailed decomposition
- **Examples**: Major features, architecture refactoring, security implementations, multi-service deployments
- **Task Decomposition**: Frequent use of two-level hierarchy with dynamic subtask creation
- **Agent Coordination**: Multi-agent orchestration with deep context analysis
## Task Execution Framework
### Automatic Assessment & Upgrades
- **During Creation**: System evaluates requirements and assigns complexity
- **During Execution**: Can upgrade (Simple→Medium→Complex) but never downgrade
- **Override Allowed**: Users can specify higher complexity manually
### Agent Integration
## Document Templates
**Assignment Rules** (based on task type/keywords):
- **Planning** → planning-agent
- **Implementation** → code-developer
- **Testing** → code-review-test-agent
- **Review** → review-agent
### IMPL_PLAN.md
Generated based on task complexity and requirements. Contains overview, requirements, and task structure.
**Execution Context** (agents receive):
### Task Summary Template (.summaries/IMPL-X.X-summary.md)
Enhanced summary documents for context inheritance and dependency resolution:
```markdown
# Task Summary: [task-id] - [title]
## Context Provided
- **Parent Context**: [inherited context from parent task]

4. **Fields**: All 5 core fields required (id, title, status, meta, context, flow_control)
5. **Paths**: context.focus_paths must contain valid project paths
6. **Dependencies**: context.depends_on task IDs must exist
### Error Recovery
- **Missing Session**: Remove orphaned active marker

## Agent Integration
### Agent Assignment
Based on task type and title keywords:
- **Planning tasks** → planning-agent
- **Implementation** → code-developer
- **Testing** → code-review-test-agent
- **Review** → review-agent
### Execution Context
Agents receive complete task JSON plus workflow context:
```json
{
"task": { /* complete task JSON */ },
"workflow": {
"session": "WFS-user-auth",
"phase": "IMPLEMENT"
}
}
```
## Data Operations
### Session Initialization
```bash
# Create minimal required structure
mkdir -p .workflow/WFS-topic-slug/.task
echo '{"session_id":"WFS-topic-slug",...}' > .workflow/WFS-topic-slug/workflow-session.json
echo '# Implementation Plan' > .workflow/WFS-topic-slug/IMPL_PLAN.md
echo '# Tasks' > .workflow/WFS-topic-slug/TODO_LIST.md
```
### Task Creation
```bash
echo '{"id":"IMPL-1","title":"New task",...}' > .task/IMPL-1.json
```
### Directory Creation (On-Demand)
```bash
# Create directories only when needed
mkdir -p .brainstorming # When brainstorming is initiated
mkdir -p .chat # When analysis commands are run
mkdir -p .summaries # When first task completes
```
### Task Updates
```bash
jq '.status = "active"' .task/IMPL-1.json > temp && mv temp .task/IMPL-1.json
```
### Document Generation
```bash
# Generate TODO_LIST.md from current JSON state
generate_todo_list_from_json .task/
```
## Validation and Error Handling
### Task Integrity Rules
1. **ID Uniqueness**: All task IDs must be unique
2. **Hierarchical Format**: Must follow IMPL-N[.M] pattern (maximum 2 levels)
3. **Parent References**: All parent IDs must exist as JSON files
4. **Depth Limits**: Maximum 2 levels deep
5. **Status Consistency**: Status values from defined enumeration
6. **Required Fields**: All 5 core fields must be present (id, title, status, meta, context, flow_control)
7. **Focus Paths Structure**: context.focus_paths array must contain valid project paths
8. **Flow Control Format**: flow_control.pre_analysis must be array with step, action, command fields
9. **Dependency Integrity**: All context.depends_on task IDs must exist as JSON files
### Session Consistency Checks
```bash
# Validate active session integrity
active_marker=$(find .workflow -name ".active-*" | head -1)
if [ -n "$active_marker" ]; then
session_name=$(basename "$active_marker" | sed 's/^\.active-//')
session_dir=".workflow/$session_name"
if [ ! -d "$session_dir" ]; then
echo "⚠️ Orphaned active marker, removing..."
rm "$active_marker"

### Recovery Strategies
- **Missing Session Directory**: Remove orphaned active marker
- **Multiple Active Markers**: Keep newest, remove others
- **Corrupted Session File**: Recreate from template
- **Broken Task Hierarchy**: Reconstruct parent-child relationships
