SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill enables AI-driven, end-to-end feature development workflows using isolated Git worktrees, reducing manual orchestration and enabling rapid delivery.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Phase-driven autonomy: From validation questions to PR delivery, the skill handles all phases with self-validation.
  • Isolated worktrees: Ensures feature work is contained and cleanly separated from main branches.
  • Comprehensive deliverables: Produces tested code, updated docs, and a draft PR for review.

Quick Start

  • Trigger autonomous feature development by providing a task, for example: "Implement feature X autonomously from spec to PR."

Frequently Asked Questions about @gw-autonomous-workflow

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
What is the best way to isolate AI agent code changes from my main branch?▼

Isolating AI agent code changes is best handled using Git worktrees, which contain feature work separately from main branches to ensure clean separation and enable rapid, autonomous delivery.

Do I need the gw CLI to run autonomous workflows with Git worktrees?▼

Yes, running autonomous workflows with Git worktrees requires the gw CLI, Git, a project with tests, and a capable agent to perform code edits, run tests, and push changes.

How does an autonomous workflow handle testing and documentation?▼

Autonomous workflows handle testing and documentation by self-validating implemented code, running project tests, updating docs, and producing a draft PR with comprehensive deliverables for review.

What are the limitations of using autonomous workflows for feature delivery?▼

Limitations of autonomous feature delivery include requiring a capable agent for code edits, an existing project with tests, and reliance on the gw CLI and Git to execute the worktree setup and delivery phases.
