FAQPage Schema

How do I save WIP progress for an in-progress task before an interruption?▼

Saving WIP progress involves creating a structured commit for current code changes and updating the task plan checkboxes to reflect completed steps, ensuring work remains resumable after interruptions.

What does a WIP commit do for version control and task management?▼

A WIP commit captures partial implementation progress in version control while keeping the task management plan in sync, allowing you to guard against data loss and resume work from the exact saved state later.

How do I resume work on a task after saving WIP progress?▼

Resuming work requires reactivating the task to load the last committed state and the latest plan, picking up exactly where the structured WIP commit left off under the .festinalente/tasks/ directory.

Does festina-save work with tasks that are not marked as in-progress?▼

No, festina-save verifies that the task status is in-progress before applying the WIP save, ensuring only active tasks tracked under .festinalente/tasks/ receive commits and plan updates.

Can I update my task plan checkboxes automatically when committing code changes?▼

Yes, the Skill reads the existing task plan, aligns checkboxes to reflect completed steps, and commits the changes together so your roadmap stays synchronized with your actual code progress.
