SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

kb-work-item eliminates the manual coordination gap between adding new requirements (work items) and ensuring they are verifiable (linked tests) and properly scheduled for execution (backlog phase assignment).

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Single-invocation work item creation: Creates a work item and immediately links it to a test so nothing is left unverified.
  • Automatic linked test creation (GOV-12): Enforces that every work item triggers a test creation step and applies quality rules for meaningful PASS/FAIL criteria.
  • Mandatory phase assignment (GOV-13): Assigns the test to a PLAN-001 phase at creation using the taxonomy mapping, preventing orphan items.

Quick Start

Create a new work item and automatically generate its linked test and PLAN-001 phase assignment by running: kb-work-item "Add regression coverage for widget embed error handling" --spec SPEC-1496 --origin regression

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a work item with linked tests and backlog assignment automatically?

Automated work item creation links new requirements to governed tests and assigns PLAN-001 backlog phases in a single step. This enforces GOV-12 and GOV-13 compliance so every requirement becomes verifiable evidence.

What is taxonomy-driven phase mapping for backlog readiness?

Taxonomy-driven phase mapping assigns execution phases using taxonomy origin and component rules. It prevents orphan items by enforcing mandatory phase assignment from taxonomy references, ensuring test records align with PLAN-001 scheduling.

How do I enforce mandatory test creation when adding a new requirement?

Enforce mandatory test creation by using a governed workflow that triggers linked test generation automatically. This applies quality rules for meaningful PASS/FAIL criteria, satisfying GOV-12 requirements for verifiable evidence.

Does single-invocation work item creation support custom taxonomy origins?

Yes, single-invocation work item creation supports custom taxonomy origins like regression inputs. It handles taxonomy-driven origin and component mapping to determine the correct PLAN-001 execution phase for the test record.

Why do my newly created work items lack execution phase assignment?

Newly created work items lack execution phase assignment when taxonomy mapping is missing. Enforcing GOV-13 rules through references/taxonomy.md ensures every test receives a required PLAN-001 phase at creation.
