FAQPage Schema
How do I resume a failed specrails pipeline from the last successful phase?

To resume a failed specrails pipeline, the retry command reads the saved pipeline state, identifies the last successful phase, and automatically re-executes only the remaining pending steps to avoid rework.

What is the best way to skip completed automation phases and only run failed pipeline steps?

The best way to skip completed automation phases is to use the retry command with the --from flag, which determines the resume point and enforces strict sequencing to execute only the remaining pipeline steps.

Can I preview which specrails pipeline phases will run before resuming?

Yes, you can preview which specrails pipeline phases will run by appending the --dry-run flag to the retry command, allowing you to verify the resume point before executing any pending steps.

Does the specrails retry command support resuming from any specific pipeline phase?

The specrails retry command supports resuming from any specific pipeline phase by using the --from flag, allowing you to manually target steps across the architect, developer, test-writer, doc-sync, reviewer, ship, and ci phases.

Why does the pipeline retry process prompt for confirmation before executing remaining steps?

The pipeline retry process prompts for confirmation to enforce correct pipeline discipline, ensuring you verify the loaded pipeline state and resume point before it executes the remaining pending phases and updates the state.
