SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It prevents completed devflow tasks from lingering as in-progress items by ensuring their status is updated, they’re moved to the done archive, and the key learnings are retained for future context.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Marks tasks as done by setting the task frontmatter status to done before archiving.
  • Archives completed work by moving the task markdown file into the single source of truth tasks/done/ directory.
  • Retains learnings by recording a concise completion summary via Hindsight so the agent can reference decisions later.
  • Use case: When you complete a feature such as branch detection for a PR workflow, you can mark the task complete and preserve what worked so the next task doesn’t repeat mistakes.

FAQPage Schema
How do I mark a backlog task as done and move it to an archive folder?

To mark a backlog task as done, the task markdown file needs its frontmatter status updated to done and then relocated into the tasks/done directory. This archives the completed work while maintaining a single source of truth for task tracking.

What is the best way to retain learnings from a completed workflow task?

Retaining learnings from a completed workflow task requires recording a concise completion summary via a Hindsight note. This tagged note preserves key decisions and context so future tasks can reference what worked and avoid repeating mistakes.

How does archiving completed tasks into a done directory improve backlog management?

Archiving completed tasks into a done directory improves backlog management by preventing finished items from lingering as in-progress. Relocating the markdown files keeps the active backlog clean and ensures only current work remains visible.

Can I use markdown files for status tracking in a devflow backlog workflow?

Yes, you can use markdown files for status tracking in a devflow backlog workflow by updating their frontmatter status. Tasks move from open or in-progress folders into a tasks/done archive as they are completed.

Do I need a task ID to archive a completed task file?

Yes, you need a task ID to archive a completed task file. Providing the specific task ID ensures the correct markdown file is identified, updated, and relocated to the done archive.
