Skill 文档

Orchestrator stays lean: discover plans, analyze dependencies, group into waves, spawn subagents, collect results. Each subagent loads the full execute-plan context and handles its own plan.

Context budget: ~15% orchestrator, 100% fresh per subagent.

<execution_context> @./references/ui-brand.md @./references/planning-config.md @./references/phase-execute.md </execution_context>

Flags:

  • --gaps-only — Execute only gap closure plans (plans with gap_closure: true in frontmatter). Use after phase-verify creates fix plans.

@.planning/ROADMAP.md @.planning/STATE.md

Read model profile for agent spawning:

MODEL_PROFILE=$(cat .planning/config.json 2>/dev/null | grep -o '"model_profile"[[:space:]]*:[[:space:]]*"[^"]*"' | grep -o '"[^"]*"$' | tr -d '"' || echo "balanced")

Default to “balanced” if not set.

Model lookup table:

Agent quality balanced budget
general-purpose (executor) opus sonnet sonnet
kata-verifier sonnet sonnet haiku
kata-code-reviewer opus sonnet sonnet
kata-*-analyzer sonnet sonnet haiku

Note: Review agents (kata-code-reviewer, kata--analyzer) are spawned by the kata-review-pull-requests skill, which handles its own model selection based on the agents’ frontmatter. The table above documents expected model usage for cost planning.*

Store resolved models for use in Task calls below.

  1. Validate phase exists Find phase directory using the discovery script:
    bash "${SKILL_BASE_DIR}/scripts/find-phase.sh" "$PHASE_ARG"
    
    Outputs PHASE_DIR, PLAN_COUNT, and PHASE_STATE as key=value pairs. Exit code 1 = not found, 2 = no plans. Parse the output to set these variables for subsequent steps.

1.25. Move phase to active (state transition)

# Move from pending to active when execution begins
# PHASE_STATE is from find-phase.sh output (step 1)
if [ "$PHASE_STATE" = "pending" ]; then
  DIR_NAME=$(basename "$PHASE_DIR")
  mkdir -p ".planning/phases/active"
  mv "$PHASE_DIR" ".planning/phases/active/${DIR_NAME}"
  PHASE_DIR=".planning/phases/active/${DIR_NAME}"
  echo "Phase moved to active/"
fi

1.5. Create Phase Branch (pr_workflow only)

Read pr_workflow config:

PR_WORKFLOW=$(cat .planning/config.json 2>/dev/null | grep -o '"pr_workflow"[[:space:]]*:[[:space:]]*[^,}]*' | grep -o 'true\|false' || echo "false")

If PR_WORKFLOW=false: Skip to step 2.

If PR_WORKFLOW=true:

  1. Get milestone version from ROADMAP.md:
    MILESTONE=$(grep -oE 'v[0-9]+\.[0-9]+(\.[0-9]+)?' .planning/ROADMAP.md | head -1 | tr -d 'v')
    
  2. Get phase number and slug from PHASE_DIR:
    PHASE_NUM=$(basename "$PHASE_DIR" | sed -E 's/^([0-9]+)-.*/\1/')
    SLUG=$(basename "$PHASE_DIR" | sed -E 's/^[0-9]+-//')
    
  3. Infer branch type from phase goal (feat/fix/docs/refactor/chore, default feat):
    PHASE_GOAL=$(grep -A 5 "Phase ${PHASE_NUM}:" .planning/ROADMAP.md | grep "Goal:" | head -1 || echo "")
    if echo "$PHASE_GOAL" | grep -qi "fix\|bug\|patch"; then
      BRANCH_TYPE="fix"
    elif echo "$PHASE_GOAL" | grep -qi "doc\|readme\|comment"; then
      BRANCH_TYPE="docs"
    elif echo "$PHASE_GOAL" | grep -qi "refactor\|restructure\|reorganize"; then
      BRANCH_TYPE="refactor"
    elif echo "$PHASE_GOAL" | grep -qi "chore\|config\|setup"; then
      BRANCH_TYPE="chore"
    else
      BRANCH_TYPE="feat"
    fi
    
  4. Create branch with re-run protection:
    BRANCH="${BRANCH_TYPE}/v${MILESTONE}-${PHASE_NUM}-${SLUG}"
    if git show-ref --verify --quiet refs/heads/"$BRANCH"; then
      git checkout "$BRANCH"
      echo "Branch $BRANCH exists, resuming on it"
    else
      git checkout -b "$BRANCH"
      echo "Created branch $BRANCH"
    fi
    

Store BRANCH variable for use in step 4.5 and step 10.5.

  1. Discover plans

    • List all *-PLAN.md files in phase directory
    • Check which have *-SUMMARY.md (already complete)
    • If --gaps-only: filter to only plans with gap_closure: true
    • Build list of incomplete plans
  2. Group by wave

    • Read wave from each plan’s frontmatter
    • Group plans by wave number

3.5. Display execution banner

Display stage banner and wave structure:

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Kata ► EXECUTING PHASE {X}: {Phase Name} ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

{N} plans, {M} waves:

Wave Plans Description
1 01, 02 {plan names from frontmatter}
2 03 {plan name}

Model profile: {profile} (executor → {model})

  1. Execute waves For each wave in order:
    • Spawn general-purpose executor for each plan in wave (parallel Task calls)

    • Wait for completion (Task blocks)

    • Verify SUMMARYs created

    • Update GitHub issue checkboxes (if enabled):

      Build COMPLETED_PLANS_IN_WAVE from SUMMARY.md files created this wave:

      # Get plan numbers from SUMMARYs that exist after this wave
      COMPLETED_PLANS_IN_WAVE=""
      for summary in $(find "${PHASE_DIR}" -maxdepth 1 -name "*-SUMMARY.md" 2>/dev/null); do
        # Extract plan number from filename (e.g., 04-01-SUMMARY.md -> 01)
        plan_num=$(basename "$summary" | sed -E 's/^[0-9]+-([0-9]+)-SUMMARY\.md$/\1/')
        # Check if this plan was in the current wave (from frontmatter we read earlier)
        if echo "${WAVE_PLANS}" | grep -q "plan-${plan_num}"; then
          COMPLETED_PLANS_IN_WAVE="${COMPLETED_PLANS_IN_WAVE} ${plan_num}"
        fi
      done
      

      Check github.enabled and issueMode:

      GITHUB_ENABLED=$(cat .planning/config.json 2>/dev/null | grep -o '"enabled"[[:space:]]*:[[:space:]]*[^,}]*' | grep -o 'true\|false' || echo "false")
      ISSUE_MODE=$(cat .planning/config.json 2>/dev/null | grep -o '"issueMode"[[:space:]]*:[[:space:]]*"[^"]*"' | grep -o '"[^"]*"$' | tr -d '"' || echo "never")
      

      If GITHUB_ENABLED != true OR ISSUE_MODE = never: Skip GitHub update.

      Otherwise:

      1. Find phase issue number:
      VERSION=$(grep -oE 'v[0-9]+\.[0-9]+(\.[0-9]+)?' .planning/ROADMAP.md | head -1 | tr -d 'v')
      ISSUE_NUMBER=$(gh issue list \
        --label "phase" \
        --milestone "v${VERSION}" \
        --json number,title \
        --jq ".[] | select(.title | startswith(\"Phase ${PHASE}:\")) | .number" \
        2>/dev/null)
      

      If issue not found: Warn and skip (non-blocking).

      1. Read current issue body:
      ISSUE_BODY=$(gh issue view "$ISSUE_NUMBER" --json body --jq '.body' 2>/dev/null)
      
      1. For each completed plan in this wave, update checkbox:
      for plan_num in ${COMPLETED_PLANS_IN_WAVE}; do
        # Format: Plan 01, Plan 02, etc.
        PLAN_ID="Plan $(printf "%02d" $plan_num):"
        # Update checkbox: - [ ] -> - [x]
        ISSUE_BODY=$(echo "$ISSUE_BODY" | sed "s/^- \[ \] ${PLAN_ID}/- [x] ${PLAN_ID}/")
      done
      
      1. Write and update:
      printf '%s\n' "$ISSUE_BODY" > /tmp/phase-issue-body.md
      gh issue edit "$ISSUE_NUMBER" --body-file /tmp/phase-issue-body.md 2>/dev/null \
        && echo "Updated issue #${ISSUE_NUMBER}: checked off Wave ${WAVE_NUM} plans" \
        || echo "Warning: Failed to update issue #${ISSUE_NUMBER}"
      

      This update happens ONCE per wave (after all plans in wave complete), not per-plan, avoiding race conditions.

    • Open Draft PR (first wave only, pr_workflow only):

      After first wave completion (orchestrator provides PHASE_ARG):

      # Re-read config (bash blocks don't share state)
      PR_WORKFLOW=$(cat .planning/config.json 2>/dev/null | grep -o '"pr_workflow"[[:space:]]*:[[:space:]]*[^,}]*' | grep -o 'true\|false' || echo "false")
      GITHUB_ENABLED=$(cat .planning/config.json 2>/dev/null | grep -o '"enabled"[[:space:]]*:[[:space:]]*[^,}]*' | head -1 | grep -o 'true\|false' || echo "false")

        EXISTING_PR=$(gh pr list --head "$BRANCH" --json number --jq '.[0].number' 2>/dev/null)
        if [ -n "$EXISTING_PR" ]; then
          echo "PR #${EXISTING_PR} already exists, skipping creation"
          PR_NUMBER="$EXISTING_PR"
        else
          # Push branch and create draft PR
          git push -u origin "$BRANCH"

Phase Goal

     # Create draft PR
     gh pr create --draft \
       --base main \
       --title "v${MILESTONE} Phase ${PHASE_NUM}: ${PHASE_NAME}" \
       --body-file /tmp/pr-body.md

     PR_NUMBER=$(gh pr list --head "$BRANCH" --json number --jq '.[0].number')
     echo "Created draft PR #${PR_NUMBER}"
   fi
 fi
 ```

 Store PR_NUMBER for step 10.5.

 **Note:** PR body checklist items remain unchecked throughout execution. The PR body is static after creation — it does NOT update as plans complete. The GitHub issue (updated after each wave above) is the source of truth for plan progress during execution.
  • Proceed to next wave
  1. Aggregate results

    • Collect summaries from all plans
    • Report phase completion status
  2. Commit any orchestrator corrections Check for uncommitted changes before verification:

    git status --porcelain
    

    If changes exist: Orchestrator made corrections between executor completions. Commit them:

    git add -u && git commit -m "fix({phase}): orchestrator corrections"
    

    If clean: Continue to test suite.

6.5. Run project test suite

Before verification, run the project’s test suite to catch regressions early:

TEST_SCRIPT=$(cat package.json 2>/dev/null | grep -o '"test"[[:space:]]*:[[:space:]]*"[^"]*"' | head -1)

If package.json has a test script:

  • Run npm test
  • If tests pass: proceed to step 7
  • If tests fail: report test failures, still proceed to step 7

If no test script detected:

  • Skip this step, proceed to step 7

Skip for gap phases: If mode is gap_closure, skip test suite

  1. Verify phase goal Check config: WORKFLOW_VERIFIER=$(cat .planning/config.json 2>/dev/null | grep -o '"verifier"[[:space:]]*:[[:space:]]*[^,}]*' | grep -o 'true\|false' || echo "true")

    If workflow.verifier is false: Skip to step 8 (treat as passed).

    Otherwise:

    • Spawn kata-verifier subagent with phase directory and goal
    • Verifier checks must_haves against actual codebase (not SUMMARY claims)
    • Creates VERIFICATION.md with detailed report
    • Route by status:
      • passed → continue to step 8
      • human_needed → present items, get approval or feedback
      • gaps_found → present gaps, offer /kata:kata-plan-phase {X} --gaps

7.5. Validate completion and move to completed

After verification passes, validate completion artifacts before moving phase to completed:

# Validate completion artifacts
PLAN_COUNT=$(find "$PHASE_DIR" -maxdepth 1 -name "*-PLAN.md" 2>/dev/null | wc -l | tr -d ' ')
MISSING=""
if [ "$PLAN_COUNT" -eq 0 ]; then
  MISSING="${MISSING}\n- No PLAN.md files found"
fi
for plan in $(find "$PHASE_DIR" -maxdepth 1 -name "*-PLAN.md" 2>/dev/null); do
  plan_id=$(basename "$plan" | sed 's/-PLAN\.md$//')
  [ ! -f "$PHASE_DIR/${plan_id}-SUMMARY.md" ] && MISSING="${MISSING}\n- Missing SUMMARY.md for ${plan_id}"
done
# Non-gap phases require VERIFICATION.md
IS_GAP=$(find "$PHASE_DIR" -maxdepth 1 -name "*-PLAN.md" -exec grep -l "gap_closure: true" {} + 2>/dev/null | head -1)
if [ -z "$IS_GAP" ] && ! find "$PHASE_DIR" -maxdepth 1 -name "*-VERIFICATION.md" 2>/dev/null | grep -q .; then
  MISSING="${MISSING}\n- Missing VERIFICATION.md (required for non-gap phases)"
fi

if [ -z "$MISSING" ]; then
  DIR_NAME=$(basename "$PHASE_DIR")
  mkdir -p ".planning/phases/completed"
  mv "$PHASE_DIR" ".planning/phases/completed/${DIR_NAME}"
  PHASE_DIR=".planning/phases/completed/${DIR_NAME}"
  echo "Phase validated and moved to completed/"
else
  echo "Warning: Phase incomplete:${MISSING}"
fi
  1. Update roadmap and state

    • Update ROADMAP.md, STATE.md
  2. Update requirements Mark phase requirements as Complete:

    • Read ROADMAP.md, find this phase’s Requirements: line (e.g., “AUTH-01, AUTH-02”)
    • Read REQUIREMENTS.md traceability table
    • For each REQ-ID in this phase: change Status from “Pending” to “Complete”
    • Write updated REQUIREMENTS.md
    • Skip if: REQUIREMENTS.md doesn’t exist, or phase has no Requirements line
  3. Commit phase completion Check COMMIT_PLANNING_DOCS from config.json (default: true). If false: Skip git operations for .planning/ files. If true: Bundle all phase metadata updates in one commit:

    • Stage: git add .planning/ROADMAP.md .planning/STATE.md
    • Stage REQUIREMENTS.md if updated: git add .planning/REQUIREMENTS.md
    • Commit: docs({phase}): complete {phase-name} phase

10.5. Mark PR Ready (pr_workflow only)

After phase completion commit:
```bash
if [ "$PR_WORKFLOW" = "true" ]; then
  # Push final commits
  git push origin "$BRANCH"

  # Mark PR ready for review
  gh pr ready

  PR_URL=$(gh pr view --json url --jq '.url')
  echo "PR marked ready: $PR_URL"
fi
```

Store PR_URL for offer_next output.

10.6. Post-Verification Checkpoint (REQUIRED — Loop until user chooses “Skip to completion”)

After PR is ready (or after phase commits if pr_workflow=false), present the user with post-verification options. This is the decision point before proceeding to completion output.

**Control flow:**
- UAT → returns here after completion
- PR review → step 10.7 → returns here
- Merge → executes merge → returns here
- Skip → proceeds to step 11

**IMPORTANT:** Do NOT skip this step. Do NOT proceed directly to step 11. The user must choose how to proceed.

Use AskUserQuestion:
- header: "Phase Complete"
- question: "Phase {X} execution complete. What would you like to do?"
- options:
  - "Run UAT (Recommended)" — Walk through deliverables for manual acceptance testing
  - "Run PR review" — 6 specialized agents review code quality
  - "Merge PR" — (if pr_workflow=true) Merge to main
  - "Skip to completion" — Trust automated verification, proceed to next phase/milestone

**Note:** Show "Merge PR" option only if `pr_workflow=true` AND PR exists AND not already merged.

**If user chooses "Run UAT":**
1. Invoke skill: `Skill("kata:kata-verify-work", "{phase}")`
2. UAT skill handles the walkthrough and any issues found
3. After UAT completes, return to this step to ask again (user may want PR review or merge)

**If user chooses "Run PR review":**
4. Invoke skill: `Skill("kata:review-pull-requests")`
5. Display review summary with counts: {N} critical, {M} important, {P} suggestions
6. **STOP and ask what to do with findings** (see step 10.7)
7. After findings handled, return to this step

**If user chooses "Merge PR":**
8. Execute merge:
   ```bash
   gh pr merge "$PR_NUMBER" --merge --delete-branch
   git checkout main && git pull

   # Explicitly close the phase issue (backup in case Closes #X didn't trigger)
   if [ -n "$PHASE_ISSUE" ]; then
     gh issue close "$PHASE_ISSUE" --comment "Closed by PR #${PR_NUMBER} merge" 2>/dev/null \
       && echo "Closed issue #${PHASE_ISSUE}" \
       || echo "Note: Issue #${PHASE_ISSUE} may already be closed"
   fi

   # Close source issues from plans (backup in case Closes #X didn't trigger)
   for plan in $(find "${PHASE_DIR}" -maxdepth 1 -name "*-PLAN.md" 2>/dev/null); do
     source_issue=$(grep -m1 "^source_issue:" "$plan" | cut -d':' -f2- | xargs)
     if echo "$source_issue" | grep -q "^github:#"; then
       issue_num=$(echo "$source_issue" | grep -oE '[0-9]+')
       gh issue close "$issue_num" --comment "Closed by PR #${PR_NUMBER} merge (source issue for plan)" 2>/dev/null || true
     fi
   done
   ```
9. Set MERGED=true
10. Return to this step to ask if user wants UAT or review before continuing

**If user chooses "Skip to completion":**
Continue to step 11.

10.7. Handle Review Findings (required after PR review completes)

**STOP here. Do not proceed until user chooses an action.**

Use AskUserQuestion with options based on what was found:
- header: "Review Findings"
- question: "How do you want to handle the review findings?"
- options (show only applicable ones):
  - "Fix critical issues" — (if critical > 0) Fix critical, then offer to add remaining to backlog
  - "Fix critical & important" — (if critical + important > 0) Fix both, then offer to add suggestions to backlog
  - "Fix all issues" — (if any issues) Fix everything
  - "Add to backlog" — Create issues for all findings without fixing
  - "Ignore and continue" — Skip all issues

**After user chooses:**

**Path A: "Fix critical issues"**
1. Fix each critical issue
2. If important or suggestions remain, ask: "Add remaining {N} issues to backlog?"
   - "Yes" → Create issues, store TODOS_CREATED count
   - "No" → Continue
3. Return to step 10.6 checkpoint

**Path B: "Fix critical & important"**
1. Fix each critical and important issue
2. If suggestions remain, ask: "Add {N} suggestions to backlog?"
   - "Yes" → Create issues, store TODOS_CREATED count
   - "No" → Continue
3. Return to step 10.6 checkpoint

**Path C: "Fix all issues"**
1. Fix all critical, important, and suggestion issues
2. Return to step 10.6 checkpoint

**Path D: "Add to backlog"**
1. Create issues for all findings using `/kata:kata-add-issue`
2. Store TODOS_CREATED count
3. Return to step 10.6 checkpoint

**Path E: "Ignore and continue"**
1. Return to step 10.6 checkpoint

Store REVIEW_SUMMARY and TODOS_CREATED for offer_next output.

**Note:** After handling findings, return to step 10.6 so user can choose UAT, merge, or skip. The checkpoint loop continues until user explicitly chooses "Skip to completion".

11. Offer next steps – Route to next action (see <offer_next>)

<offer_next> Output this markdown directly (not as a code block). Route based on status:

Status Route
gaps_found Route C (gap closure)
human_needed Present checklist, then re-route based on approval
passed + more phases Route A (next phase)
passed + last phase Route B (milestone complete)

Route A: Phase verified, more phases remain

(Merge status already determined in step 10.6)

Plan gap closure — create additional plans to complete the phase

/kata:kata-plan-phase {Z} –gaps

/clear first → fresh context window

───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

Also available:

  • cat .planning/phases/{phase_dir}/{phase}-VERIFICATION.md — see full report
  • /kata:kata-verify-work {Z} — manual testing before planning

───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────


After user runs /kata:kata-plan-phase {Z} –gaps:

  1. Planner reads VERIFICATION.md gaps
  2. Creates plans 04, 05, etc. to close gaps
  3. User runs /kata:kata-execute-phase {Z} again
  4. phase-execute runs incomplete plans (04, 05…)
  5. Verifier runs again → loop until passed </offer_next>

<wave_execution> Parallel spawning:

Before spawning, read file contents using Read tool. The @ syntax does not work across Task() boundaries – content must be inlined in the Task prompt.

Read these files:

  • Each plan file in the wave (e.g., {plan_01_path}, {plan_02_path}, etc.)
  • .planning/STATE.md
  • references/executor-instructions.md (relative to skill base directory) — store as executor_instructions_content

Spawn all plans in a wave with a single message containing multiple Task calls, with inlined content:

Task(prompt="<agent-instructions>\n{executor_instructions_content}\n</agent-instructions>\n\nExecute plan at {plan_01_path}\n\n<plan>\n{plan_01_content}\n</plan>\n\n<project_state>\n{state_content}\n</project_state>", subagent_type="general-purpose", model="{executor_model}")
Task(prompt="<agent-instructions>\n{executor_instructions_content}\n</agent-instructions>\n\nExecute plan at {plan_02_path}\n\n<plan>\n{plan_02_content}\n</plan>\n\n<project_state>\n{state_content}\n</project_state>", subagent_type="general-purpose", model="{executor_model}")
Task(prompt="<agent-instructions>\n{executor_instructions_content}\n</agent-instructions>\n\nExecute plan at {plan_03_path}\n\n<plan>\n{plan_03_content}\n</plan>\n\n<project_state>\n{state_content}\n</project_state>", subagent_type="general-purpose", model="{executor_model}")

All three run in parallel. Task tool blocks until all complete.

No polling. No background agents. No TaskOutput loops. </wave_execution>

<checkpoint_handling> Plans with autonomous: false have checkpoints. The phase-execute.md workflow handles the full checkpoint flow:

  • Subagent pauses at checkpoint, returns structured state
  • Orchestrator presents to user, collects response
  • Spawns fresh continuation agent (not resume)

See @./references/phase-execute.md step checkpoint_handling for complete details. </checkpoint_handling>

<deviation_rules> During execution, handle discoveries automatically:

  1. Auto-fix bugs – Fix immediately, document in Summary
  2. Auto-add critical – Security/correctness gaps, add and document
  3. Auto-fix blockers – Can’t proceed without fix, do it and document
  4. Ask about architectural – Major structural changes, stop and ask user

Only rule 4 requires user intervention. </deviation_rules>

<commit_rules> Per-Task Commits:

After each task completes:

  1. Stage only files modified by that task
  2. Commit with format: {type}({phase}-{plan}): {task-name}
  3. Types: feat, fix, test, refactor, perf, chore
  4. Record commit hash for SUMMARY.md

Plan Metadata Commit:

After all tasks in a plan complete:

  1. Stage plan artifacts only: PLAN.md, SUMMARY.md
  2. Commit with format: docs({phase}-{plan}): complete [plan-name] plan
  3. NO code files (already committed per-task)

Phase Completion Commit:

After all plans in phase complete (step 7):

  1. Stage: ROADMAP.md, STATE.md, REQUIREMENTS.md (if updated), VERIFICATION.md
  2. Commit with format: docs({phase}): complete {phase-name} phase
  3. Bundles all phase-level state updates in one commit

NEVER use:

  • git add .
  • git add -A
  • git add src/ or any broad directory

Always stage files individually. </commit_rules>

<success_criteria>

  • All incomplete plans in phase executed
  • Each plan has SUMMARY.md
  • Phase goal verified (must_haves checked against codebase)
  • VERIFICATION.md created in phase directory
  • STATE.md reflects phase completion
  • ROADMAP.md updated
  • REQUIREMENTS.md updated (phase requirements marked Complete)
  • GitHub issue checkboxes updated per wave (if github.enabled)
  • User informed of next steps </success_criteria>
