FAQPage Schema
How do I check the current lifecycle status of a project across different phases?▼

To check the lifecycle status, you can generate a read-only snapshot that shows the current phase, checkpoint, and gate history across scope, research, design, plan, spike, and execute phases.

What is the best way to view gate history and research questions for an active lifecycle?▼

Viewing gate history and research questions is done by generating a structured status report that presents past gate outcomes and lists current research questions to assess progress and gaps.

Can I modify project state data when reviewing the checkpoint and lifecycle phase?▼

No, modifying state data is not supported. Lifecycle status reporting is strictly read-only, diagnosing potential inconsistencies and suggesting next actions while preserving the original source state.

How do I get a quick snapshot of project progress without digging through multiple files?▼

Get a quick snapshot of project progress by running a status command that consolidates the project name, current phase, checkpoints, and gates into a single structured overview.

Does lifecycle status reporting suggest next actions after identifying the current phase?▼

Yes, lifecycle status reporting diagnoses potential inconsistencies within the state data and suggests next actions to help teams understand what needs to be done after identifying the current phase.
