bootstrap

Automating a Java Spring development workflow involves enforcing a structured 5-phase process: PLAN, SPEC, BUILD, VERIFY, and REVIEW. The bootstrap skill enforces these phases automatically during session start, applying guardrails and auto-transitions to guide the agent through every code change.

Automatically retrying failed Java builds requires a verify/fix loop with configurable retry limits. This workflow engine detects build or verification failures and automatically retries the execution step up to a set limit before proceeding to the mandatory review phase.

Enforcing mandatory code review requires a workflow engine that blocks task completion until a final review phase passes. This automated workflow applies guardrails to prevent skipping the review step, ensuring every Java Spring code change undergoes structured verification.

Supporting parallel sub-agents for large Java projects requires multi-agent coordination within the workflow engine. This skill enables parallel sub-agents or coordinated teams while maintaining the enforced 5-phase workflow and context budgeting to prevent token over-use.

Preventing infinite loops and token over-use during automated code generation requires circuit breakers and context budgeting. This workflow engine implements these mechanisms to halt excessive retries and manage context window consumption during the verify and fix phases.

An automated session-start hook is needed when you want to enforce a consistent development process without manual intervention. This hook detects the Java Spring project type, loads required skills, and initiates the workflow engine automatically when a new session starts.
