Context Gather Command (/workflow:tools:context-gather)

Overview

Orchestrator command that invokes context-search-agent to gather comprehensive project context for implementation planning. Generates standardized context-package.json with codebase analysis, dependencies, and conflict detection.

Agent: context-search-agent (.claude/agents/context-search-agent.md)

Core Philosophy

• Agent Delegation: Delegate all discovery to context-search-agent for autonomous execution
• Detection-First: Check for existing context-package before executing
• Plan Mode: Full comprehensive analysis (vs lightweight brainstorm mode)
• Standardized Output: Generate .workflow/{session}/.process/context-package.json

Execution Flow

Step 1: Context-Package Detection

Execute First - Check if valid package already exists:

const contextPackagePath = `.workflow/${session_id}/.process/context-package.json`;

if (file_exists(contextPackagePath)) {
  const existing = Read(contextPackagePath);

  // Validate package belongs to current session
  if (existing?.metadata?.session_id === session_id) {
    console.log("✅ Valid context-package found for session:", session_id);
    console.log("📊 Stats:", existing.statistics);
    console.log("⚠️  Conflict Risk:", existing.conflict_detection.risk_level);
    return existing; // Skip execution, return existing
  } else {
    console.warn("⚠️ Invalid session_id in existing package, re-generating...");
  }
}

Step 2: Invoke Context-Search Agent

Only execute if Step 1 finds no valid package

Task(
  subagent_type="context-search-agent",
  description="Gather comprehensive context for plan",
  prompt=`
You are executing as context-search-agent (.claude/agents/context-search-agent.md).

## Execution Mode
**PLAN MODE** (Comprehensive) - Full Phase 1-3 execution

## Session Information
- **Session ID**: ${session_id}
- **Task Description**: ${task_description}
- **Output Path**: .workflow/${session_id}/.process/context-package.json

## Mission
Execute complete context-search-agent workflow for implementation planning:

### Phase 1: Initialization & Pre-Analysis
1. **Detection**: Check for existing context-package (early exit if valid)
2. **Foundation**: Initialize code-index, get project structure, load docs
3. **Analysis**: Extract keywords, determine scope, classify complexity

### Phase 2: Multi-Source Context Discovery
Execute all 3 discovery tracks:
- **Track 1**: Reference documentation (CLAUDE.md, architecture docs)
- **Track 2**: Web examples (use Exa MCP for unfamiliar tech/APIs)
- **Track 3**: Codebase analysis (5-layer discovery: files, content, patterns, deps, config/tests)

### Phase 3: Synthesis, Assessment & Packaging
1. Apply relevance scoring and build dependency graph
2. Synthesize 3-source data (docs > code > web)
3. Integrate brainstorm artifacts (if .brainstorming/ exists, read content)
4. Perform conflict detection with risk assessment
5. Generate and validate context-package.json

## Output Requirements
Complete context-package.json with:
- **metadata**: task_description, keywords, complexity, tech_stack, session_id
- **project_context**: architecture_patterns, coding_conventions, tech_stack
- **assets**: {documentation[], source_code[], config[], tests[]} with relevance scores
- **dependencies**: {internal[], external[]} with dependency graph
- **brainstorm_artifacts**: {guidance_specification, role_analyses[], synthesis_output} with content
- **conflict_detection**: {risk_level, risk_factors, affected_modules[], mitigation_strategy}

## Quality Validation
Before completion verify:
- [ ] Valid JSON format with all required fields
- [ ] File relevance accuracy >80%
- [ ] Dependency graph complete (max 2 transitive levels)
- [ ] Conflict risk level calculated correctly
- [ ] No sensitive data exposed
- [ ] Total files ≤50 (prioritize high-relevance)

Execute autonomously following agent documentation.
Report completion with statistics.

Step 3: Output Verification

After agent completes, verify output:

// Verify file was created
const outputPath = `.workflow/${session_id}/.process/context-package.json`;
if (!file_exists(outputPath)) {
  throw new Error("❌ Agent failed to generate context-package.json");
}

Parameter Reference

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
--session	string	✅	Workflow session ID (e.g., WFS-user-auth)
task_description	string	✅	Detailed task description for context extraction

Output Schema

Refer to context-search-agent.md Phase 3.7 for complete context-package.json schema.

Key Sections:

• metadata: Session info, keywords, complexity, tech stack
• project_context: Architecture patterns, conventions, tech stack
• assets: Categorized files with relevance scores (documentation, source_code, config, tests)
• dependencies: Internal and external dependency graphs
• brainstorm_artifacts: Brainstorm documents with full content (if exists)
• conflict_detection: Risk assessment with mitigation strategies

Usage Examples

Basic Usage

/workflow:tools:context-gather --session WFS-auth-feature "Implement JWT authentication with refresh tokens"

Success Criteria

• ✅ Valid context-package.json generated in .workflow/{session}/.process/
• ✅ Contains >80% relevant files based on task keywords
• ✅ Execution completes within 2 minutes
• ✅ All required schema fields present and valid
• ✅ Conflict risk accurately assessed
• ✅ Agent reports completion with statistics

Error Handling

Error	Cause	Resolution
Package validation failed	Invalid session_id in existing package	Re-run agent to regenerate
Agent execution timeout	Large codebase or slow MCP	Increase timeout, check code-index status
Missing required fields	Agent incomplete execution	Check agent logs, verify schema compliance
File count exceeds limit	Too many relevant files	Agent should auto-prioritize top 50 by relevance

Notes

• Detection-first: Always check for existing package before invoking agent
• Agent autonomy: Agent handles all discovery logic per .claude/agents/context-search-agent.md
• No redundancy: This command is a thin orchestrator, all logic in agent
• Plan-specific: Use this for implementation planning; brainstorm mode uses direct agent call
