SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill coordinates and tracks pipeline phase state across multiple sessions for autonomous dev-pipeline execution.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Init: create a PIPELINE-STATE.md at the project root with an initial task.
  • Update: modify plan, design, impl, escalation, or handoff sections as work progresses.
  • Read: surface the current state including phase, progress, and escalations.
  • Transition: move to the next phase and auto-generate handoffs and checkpoints.
  • Escalation: manage escalation queues across phases and sessions.

Quick Start

Create a new pipeline state at the project root by initializing it with your task name.

FAQPage Schema
How do I track pipeline state across multiple development sessions?

Track pipeline state across sessions by initializing a PIPELINE-STATE.md file at your project root to record phase progress, handoff content, and escalation queues for continuous autonomous workflows.

What is multi-phase pipeline state coordination for autonomous dev workflows?

Multi-phase pipeline state coordination manages progress across planning, design, implementation, testing, and reporting phases. It provides init, update, read, and transition operations on a PIPELINE-STATE.md file to maintain cross-session continuity.

How do I transition between pipeline phases and generate checkpoints?

Transition between pipeline phases by using the transition operation to move to the next phase. This automatically generates handoff content and checkpoints to ensure compatibility and preserve progress within the PIPELINE-STATE.md file.

Can I manage an escalation queue across different pipeline phases?

Yes, you can manage an escalation queue across different pipeline phases and sessions. Update the escalation section in PIPELINE-STATE.md to track and surface issues as work progresses through planning, design, and implementation.

Does pipeline state management work for long-running autonomous pipelines?

Pipeline state management works for long-running autonomous pipelines by coordinating cross-session progress tracking. It maintains phase transitions, handoffs, and checkpoint compatibility within a single PIPELINE-STATE.md file for continuous execution.
