What is a dev-story workflow for software engineering teams?

A dev-story workflow is a structured, auditable storytelling process for software development tasks that guides loading a story, planning, writing tests, implementing, committing, pushing, creating pull requests, monitoring CI, and merging.

Do I need the gh CLI to automate pull request creation and CI monitoring?

Yes, you need both the gh CLI and git installed as dependencies to execute the end-to-end lifecycle scripts for pull request creation, CI wait verification, and branch merging.

How to create git checkpoints automatically after code edits?

You can enforce automatic checkpointing after edits by using a PostToolUse hook pattern that isolates its scope to the dev-story skill, maintaining state validation and gate checks throughout the development lifecycle.

Can I manage multiple git branches and pull requests for different stories simultaneously?

Yes, the dev-story workflow applies to software teams executing planning and version control across multiple stories, using scripts like load-story, git-branch, pr-create, ci-wait, and merge to orchestrate parallel lifecycle transitions.
