Automating feature branch creation and environment setup requires a valid setup.yaml to define the configuration. The process validates the YAML fields, generates a ticket-based feature branch, wires related repositories as submodules, and outputs a design document.

Bootstrapping a development task with submodule wiring and design documentation involves reading a setup.yaml to attach target repositories as submodules. This synchronizes related repositories and generates a setup-driven design document in one step.

Generating a design document from a setup.yaml is best handled by validating the configuration fields first, then creating the feature branch and attaching submodules. The YAML description directly drives the produced design documentation.

This branch setup automation operates without external dependencies, relying solely on the provided setup.yaml. It validates the required YAML fields internally before creating the feature branch and adding target repositories as submodules.

You can use this setup to attach multiple target repositories as submodules for synchronized work. The setup.yaml configuration specifies the related and target repositories to wire directly into the newly created feature branch.

When the setup.yaml fields are invalid, the feature branch bootstrapping process halts after the validation step. The setup requires all specified fields to be valid before it proceeds to create the branch, add submodules, and generate the design document.
