SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill helps teams quickly see the current FIRE project status and detect inconsistencies between state.yaml and actual artifacts on disk, enabling faster remediation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Read state.yaml and scan on-disk artifacts (intents, work items, runs) to compute a live status snapshot.
  • Validate the status cascade (work items -> intents -> project) and surface any drift or gaps.
  • Provide an interactive remediation workflow that guides users through resolving issues, logging maintenance, and updating state.

Quick Start

Invoke the status skill in your FIRE project to display the current status: /specs-fire status. Example: run the status command at the project root to see a structured report.

FAQPage Schema
How do I check FIRE project status and validate state.yaml integrity?

You can check FIRE project status by scanning state.yaml and on-disk artifacts to compute a live status snapshot. This validates the status cascade across work items, intents, and runs to detect any drift or gaps in your project.

What is a FIRE project status cascade and when do I need to validate it?

A FIRE project status cascade enforces status consistency from work items to intents to the project level. You should validate it when you suspect drift between your state.yaml file and actual artifacts on disk.

How do I detect drift between state.yaml and filesystem artifacts in a FIRE project?

You detect drift by reading state.yaml and scanning on-disk artifacts like intents, work items, and runs. This comparison surfaces inconsistencies in frontmatter and project state, providing a structured report of any issues.

Can I remediate state.yaml inconsistencies and update FIRE project status interactively?

Yes, you can remediate state.yaml inconsistencies interactively. The process guides you through resolving issues, logging maintenance activities, and updating state to ensure your FIRE project status remains accurate.

Does FIRE project status validation work for both development and production environments?

Yes, FIRE project status validation applies to both development and production environments. It surfaces drift in intents, work items, and runs regardless of the environment to guide necessary remediation.

Why does my FIRE project status show frontmatter consistency issues?

Your FIRE project status shows frontmatter consistency issues when on-disk artifacts do not match the expected metadata defined in state.yaml. The validation process verifies frontmatter and reports these issues with suggested fixes.
