| **Memory** | All tasks | 1-2 tasks | **90% less** |
| **Scalability** | 10-20 tasks | 100+ tasks | **5-10x** |
**Loading Strategy**:
- **TODO_LIST.md**: Read in Phase 2 (task metadata, status, dependencies)
- **IMPL_PLAN.md**: Read existence in Phase 2, parse execution strategy when needed
- **Task JSONs**: Complete lazy loading (read only during execution)
## Core Rules
**Complete entire workflow autonomously without user interruption, using TodoWrite for comprehensive progress tracking.**
**Execute all discovered pending tasks sequentially until workflow completion or blocking dependency.**
**Execute all discovered pending tasks until workflow completion or blocking dependency.**
**Auto-complete session when all tasks finished: Call `/workflow:session:complete` upon workflow completion.**
## Core Responsibilities
- **Session Discovery**: Identify and select active workflow sessions
- **Task Dependency Resolution**: Analyze task relationships and execution order
- **Execution Strategy Parsing**: Extract execution model from IMPL_PLAN.md
- **TodoWrite Progress Tracking**: Maintain real-time execution status throughout entire workflow
- **Agent Orchestration**: Coordinate specialized agents with complete context
- **Flow Control Execution**: Execute pre-analysis steps and context accumulation
- **Status Synchronization**: Update task JSON files and workflow state
- **Autonomous Completion**: Continue execution until all tasks complete or reach blocking state
- **Session Auto-Complete**: Call `/workflow:session:complete` when all workflow tasks finished
## Execution Philosophy
- **IMPL_PLAN-driven**: Follow execution strategy from IMPL_PLAN.md Section 4
- **Discovery-first**: Auto-discover existing plans and tasks
- **Status-aware**: Execute only ready tasks with resolved dependencies
- **Context-rich**: Provide complete task JSON and accumulated context to agents
- **Progress tracking**: **Continuous TodoWrite updates throughout entire workflow execution**
- **Flow control**: Sequential step execution with variable passing
- **Autonomous completion**: **Execute all tasks without user interruption until workflow complete**
## Flow Control Execution
**[FLOW_CONTROL]** marker indicates task JSON contains `flow_control.pre_analysis` steps for context preparation.
### Orchestrator Responsibility
- Pass complete task JSON to agent (including `flow_control` block)
- Provide session paths for artifact access
- Monitor agent completion
### Agent Responsibility
- Parse `flow_control.pre_analysis` array from JSON
- Execute steps sequentially with variable substitution
- Accumulate context from artifacts and dependencies
- Follow error handling per `step.on_error`
- Complete implementation using accumulated context
**Orchestrator does NOT execute flow control steps - Agent interprets and executes them from JSON.**
- **Progress tracking**: Continuous TodoWrite updates throughout entire workflow execution
- **Autonomous completion**: Execute all tasks without user interruption until workflow complete
## Execution Lifecycle
### Resume Mode Detection
**Special Flag Processing**: When `--resume-session="session-id"` is provided:
1. **Skip Discovery Phase**: Use provided session ID directly
2. **Load Specified Session**: Read session state from `.workflow/{session-id}/`
3. **Direct TodoWrite Generation**: Skip to Phase 3 (Planning) immediately
4. **Accelerated Execution**: Enter agent coordination without validation delays
### Phase 1: Discovery
**Applies to**: Normal mode only (skipped in resume mode)
### Phase 1: Discovery (Normal Mode Only)
**Process**:
1. **Check Active Sessions**: Find `.workflow/.active-*` markers
2. **Select Session**: If multiple found, prompt user selection
3. **Load Session Metadata**: Read `workflow-session.json` ONLY (minimal context)
4. **DO NOT read task JSONs yet** - defer until execution phase
**Note**: In resume mode, this phase is completely skipped.
**Resume Mode**: This phase is completely skipped when `--resume-session="session-id"` flag is provided.
### Phase 2: Planning Document Analysis
**Applies to**: Normal mode only (skipped in resume mode)

**Process**:
1. **Read IMPL_PLAN.md**: Check existence, understand overall strategy
2. **Read TODO_LIST.md**: Get current task statuses and execution progress
3. **Extract Task Metadata**: Parse task IDs, titles, and dependency relationships from TODO_LIST.md
4. **Build Execution Queue**: Determine ready tasks based on TODO_LIST.md status and dependencies
**Key Optimization**: Use IMPL_PLAN.md and TODO_LIST.md as primary sources instead of reading all task JSONs
**Key Optimization**: Use IMPL_PLAN.md (existence check only) and TODO_LIST.md as primary sources instead of reading all task JSONs
**Note**: In resume mode, this phase is also skipped as session analysis was already completed by `/workflow:status`.
**Resume Mode**: This phase is skipped as session analysis was already completed by `/workflow:status`.

- Parse TODO_LIST.md to extract all tasks with current statuses
- Identify first pending task with met dependencies
- Generate comprehensive TodoWrite covering entire workflow
2. **Mark Initial Status**: Set first ready task as `in_progress` in TodoWrite
2. **Mark Initial Status**: Set first ready task(s) as `in_progress` in TodoWrite
- **Sequential execution**: Mark ONE task as `in_progress`
- **Parallel batch**: Mark ALL tasks in current batch as `in_progress`

**Key Optimization**: Read task JSON **only when needed** for execution
### Phase 4: Execution Strategy Selection & Task Execution
**Applies to**: Both normal and resume modes
1. **Identify Next Task**: From TodoWrite, get the next `in_progress` task ID
2. **Load Task JSON on Demand**: Read `.task/{task-id}.json` for current task ONLY
3. **Validate Task Structure**: Ensure all 5 required fields exist (id, title, status, meta, context, flow_control)
4. **Pass Task with Flow Control**: Include complete task JSON with `pre_analysis` steps for agent execution
5. **Launch Agent**: Invoke specialized agent with complete context including flow control steps
6. **Monitor Progress**: Track agent execution and handle errors without user interruption
7. **Collect Results**: Gather implementation results and outputs
8. **Update TODO_LIST.md**: Mark current task as completed in TODO_LIST.md
9. **Continue Workflow**: Identify next pending task from TODO_LIST.md and repeat from step 1
**Step 4A: Parse Execution Strategy from IMPL_PLAN.md**
Read IMPL_PLAN.md Section 4 to extract:
- **Execution Model**: Sequential | Parallel | Phased | TDD Cycles
- **Parallelization Opportunities**: Which tasks can run in parallel
- **Serialization Requirements**: Which tasks must run sequentially
- **Critical Path**: Priority execution order

## Task Discovery & Queue Building
## Execution Strategy (IMPL_PLAN-Driven)
### Session Discovery Process (Normal Mode - Optimized)
```
├── Check for .active-* markers in .workflow/
├── If multiple active sessions found → Prompt user to select
├── Locate selected session's workflow folder
├── Load session metadata: workflow-session.json (minimal context)
├── Read IMPL_PLAN.md (strategy overview and task summary)
├── Read TODO_LIST.md (current task statuses and dependencies)
├── Parse TODO_LIST.md to extract task metadata (NO JSON loading)
├── Build execution queue from TODO_LIST.md
└── Generate TodoWrite from TODO_LIST.md state
```
### Strategy Priority
**Key Change**: Task JSONs are NOT loaded during discovery - they are loaded lazily during execution
**IMPL_PLAN-Driven Execution (Recommended)**:
1. **Read IMPL_PLAN.md execution strategy** (Section 4: Implementation Strategy)
2. **Follow explicit guidance**:
- Execution Model (Sequential/Parallel/Phased/TDD)
- Parallelization Opportunities (which tasks can run in parallel)
- Serialization Requirements (which tasks must run sequentially)
- Critical Path (priority execution order)
3. **Use TODO_LIST.md for status tracking** only
4. **IMPL_PLAN decides "HOW"**, execute.md implements it
### Resume Mode Process (--resume-session flag - Optimized)
```
├── Use provided session-id directly (skip discovery)
├── Validate .workflow/{session-id}/ directory exists
├── Read TODO_LIST.md for current progress
├── Parse TODO_LIST.md to extract task IDs and statuses
├── Generate TodoWrite from TODO_LIST.md (prioritize in-progress/pending tasks)
└── Enter Phase 4 (Execution) with lazy task JSON loading
```
**Intelligent Fallback (When IMPL_PLAN lacks execution details)**:
1. **Analyze task structure**:
- Check `meta.execution_group` in task JSONs
- Analyze `depends_on` relationships
- Understand task complexity and risk
2. **Apply smart defaults**:
- No dependencies + same execution_group → Parallel
- Has dependencies → Sequential (wait for deps)
- Critical/high-risk tasks → Sequential
3. **Conservative approach**: When uncertain, prefer sequential execution
**Key Change**: Completely skip IMPL_PLAN.md and task JSON loading - use TODO_LIST.md only
### Execution Models
#### 1. Sequential Execution
**When**: IMPL_PLAN specifies "Sequential" OR no clear parallelization guidance
**Pattern**: Execute tasks one by one in TODO_LIST order
**TodoWrite**: ONE task marked as `in_progress` at a time
#### 2. Parallel Execution
**When**: IMPL_PLAN specifies "Parallel" with clear parallelization opportunities
**Pattern**: Execute independent task groups concurrently
**TodoWrite**: MULTIPLE tasks (in same batch) marked as `in_progress` simultaneously
#### 3. Phased Execution
**When**: IMPL_PLAN specifies "Phased" with phase breakdown
**Pattern**: Execute tasks in phases, respect phase boundaries
**TodoWrite**: Within each phase, follow Sequential or Parallel rules
#### 4. Intelligent Fallback
**When**: IMPL_PLAN lacks execution strategy details
**Pattern**: Analyze task structure and apply smart defaults
**TodoWrite**: Follow Sequential or Parallel rules based on analysis

## Batch Execution with Dependency Graph
### Parallel Execution Algorithm
**Core principle**: Execute independent tasks concurrently in batches based on dependency graph.
#### Algorithm Steps (Optimized with Lazy Loading)
```javascript
function executeBatchWorkflow(sessionId) {
// 1. Build dependency graph from TODO_LIST.md (NOT task JSONs)
const graph = buildDependencyGraphFromTodoList(`.workflow/${sessionId}/TODO_LIST.md`);
// 2. Process batches until graph is empty
while (!graph.isEmpty()) {
// 3. Identify current batch (tasks with in-degree = 0)
const batch = graph.getNodesWithInDegreeZero();
// 4. Load task JSONs ONLY for current batch (lazy loading)
const batchTaskJsons = batch.map(taskId =>
Read(`.workflow/${sessionId}/.task/${taskId}.json`)
);
// 5. Check for parallel execution opportunities
const parallelGroups = groupByExecutionGroup(batchTaskJsons);
// 6. Execute batch concurrently
await Promise.all(
parallelGroups.map(group => executeBatch(group))
);
// 7. Update graph: remove completed tasks and their edges
graph.removeNodes(batch);
// 8. Update TODO_LIST.md and TodoWrite to reflect completed batch
updateTodoListAfterBatch(batch);
updateTodoWriteAfterBatch(batch);
}
// 9. All tasks complete - auto-complete session
SlashCommand("/workflow:session:complete");
}
function buildDependencyGraphFromTodoList(todoListPath) {
const todoContent = Read(todoListPath);
const tasks = parseTodoListTasks(todoContent);
const graph = new DirectedGraph();
tasks.forEach(task => {
graph.addNode(task.id, { id: task.id, title: task.title, status: task.status });
task.dependencies?.forEach(depId => graph.addEdge(depId, task.id));
});
return graph;
}
function parseTodoListTasks(todoContent) {

const taskPattern = /- \[([ x])\] \*\*([A-Z]+-\d+(?:\.\d+)?)\*\*: (.+?) →/g;
const tasks = [];
let match;
while ((match = taskPattern.exec(todoContent)) !== null) {
tasks.push({
status: match[1] === 'x' ? 'completed' : 'pending',
id: match[2],
title: match[3]
});
}
return tasks;
}
function groupByExecutionGroup(tasks) {
const groups = {};
tasks.forEach(task => {
const groupId = task.meta.execution_group || task.id;
if (!groups[groupId]) groups[groupId] = [];
groups[groupId].push(task);
});
return Object.values(groups);
}
async function executeBatch(tasks) {
// Execute all tasks in batch concurrently
return Promise.all(
tasks.map(task => executeTask(task))
);
}
```
#### Execution Group Rules
1. **Same `execution_group` ID** → Execute in parallel (independent, different contexts)
2. **No `execution_group` (null)** → Execute sequentially (has dependencies)
3. **Different `execution_group` IDs** → Execute in parallel (independent batches)
4. **Same `context_signature`** → Should have been merged (warning if not)
#### Parallel Execution Example
```
Batch 1 (no dependencies):
- IMPL-1.1 (execution_group: "parallel-auth-api") → Agent 1
- IMPL-1.2 (execution_group: "parallel-ui-comp") → Agent 2
- IMPL-1.3 (execution_group: "parallel-db-schema") → Agent 3
Wait for Batch 1 completion...
Batch 2 (depends on Batch 1):
- IMPL-2.1 (execution_group: null, depends_on: [IMPL-1.1, IMPL-1.2]) → Agent 1
Wait for Batch 2 completion...
Batch 3 (independent of Batch 2):
- IMPL-3.1 (execution_group: "parallel-tests-1") → Agent 1
- IMPL-3.2 (execution_group: "parallel-tests-2") → Agent 2
```
## TodoWrite Coordination
**Comprehensive workflow tracking** with immediate status updates throughout entire execution without user interruption:
#### TodoWrite Workflow Rules
1. **Initial Creation**: Generate TodoWrite from discovered pending tasks for entire workflow
- **Normal Mode**: Create from discovery results
- **Resume Mode**: Create from existing session state and current progress
2. **Parallel Task Support**:
- **Single-task execution**: Mark ONLY ONE task as `in_progress` at a time
- **Batch execution**: Mark ALL tasks in current batch as `in_progress` simultaneously
- **Execution group indicator**: Show `[execution_group: group-id]` for parallel tasks
3. **Immediate Updates**: Update status after each task/batch completion without user interruption
4. **Status Synchronization**: Sync with JSON task files after updates
5. **Continuous Tracking**: Maintain TodoWrite throughout entire workflow execution until completion
### TodoWrite Rules (Unified)
#### Resume Mode TodoWrite Generation
**Special behavior when `--resume-session` flag is present**:
- Load existing session progress from `.workflow/{session-id}/TODO_LIST.md`
- Identify currently in-progress or next pending task
- Generate TodoWrite starting from interruption point
- Preserve completed task history in TodoWrite display
- Focus on remaining pending tasks for execution
**Rule 1: Initial Creation**
- **Normal Mode**: Generate TodoWrite from discovered pending tasks for entire workflow
- **Resume Mode**: Generate from existing session state and current progress
#### TodoWrite Tool Usage
**Use Claude Code's built-in TodoWrite tool** to track workflow progress in real-time:
**Rule 2: In-Progress Task Count (Execution-Model-Dependent)**
- **Sequential execution**: Mark ONLY ONE task as `in_progress` at a time
- **Parallel batch execution**: Mark ALL tasks in current batch as `in_progress` simultaneously
- **Execution group indicator**: Show `[execution_group: group-id]` for parallel tasks
**Rule 3: Status Updates**
- **Immediate Updates**: Update status after each task/batch completion without user interruption
- **Status Synchronization**: Sync with JSON task files after updates
- **Continuous Tracking**: Maintain TodoWrite throughout entire workflow execution until completion
**Rule 4: Workflow Completion Check**
- When all tasks marked `completed`, auto-call `/workflow:session:complete`
