SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? After a session gap, developers lose track of where an Azure DevOps work item stands in the ICEA workflow — which documents exist, what is approved, and what to do next. This Skill scans all ICEA artifacts for an ADO ID and reports the exact current state plus the single next command to run. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Artifact Discovery: Locates plan, ICEA, tech spec, tracker, and epic documents for a given ADO ID across the docs directory. - State Reporting: Parses status lines, open question counts, acceptance criteria progress, and open bugs into a consolidated status dashboard. - Next-Action Guidance: Derives the exact next command (PLAN, TECH, APPROVE, REVISE, or IMPLEMENT) from the combination of files on disk and their approval state, with per-story progress for epics. - Use Case: A developer returning Monday morning runs /icea-status ADO-1847 and immediately sees the tech spec has 3 open questions, so the next step is REVISE ADO-1847. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to show the ICEA status for ADO-1847 and tell you what to do next.

FAQPage Schema
How do I check the status of an Azure DevOps work item in an ICEA workflow?

Run /icea-status followed by the ADO ID, such as /icea-status ADO-1847, or use the keyword form STATUS ADO-1847. The skill locates all related plan, ICEA, tech spec, tracker, and epic files and reports their state plus the next action.

How does icea-status decide what the next action is?

It uses a decision table based on which files exist on disk and the ICEA status line. For example, a plan plus draft ICEA yields TECH, open questions yield REVISE, and an approved story yields IMPLEMENT.

What ADO ID formats does icea-status accept?

It normalizes ADO-1847, ADO #1847, and the bare number 1847 to the same work item. If no ID is provided, it prompts you to enter one before searching.

What happens if no ICEA files exist for an ADO ID?

The skill reports that no files were found and suggests running /icea-feature with that ADO ID to start a fresh ICEA workflow, then stops without further processing.

Does icea-status handle epics with multiple stories?

Yes. For epics it shows a per-story progress block with story points and completion state, and the next action points to implementing the next pending story rather than the epic as a whole.
