track-management

Track management coordinates software work tracks end-to-end by enforcing unique track IDs, lifecycle phases, and a registry. This ensures governance and traceability across features, bugs, and refactors throughout the entire development workflow.

The best way to structure specifications and plans is using spec.md and plan.md templates. These standard templates organize work items with structured specs, phased tasks, and track registry updates to maintain clear governance and progress tracking.

To create a new track, follow the standard const/plan templates to generate a unique ID and structured spec. Register the new track in the tracks registry, then begin implementation to ensure full lifecycle governance and traceability from the start.

Yes, track management operates without external dependencies or components. It applies lifecycle phases, status markers, and checkpoints directly across spec.md and plan.md files to enforce governance and traceability natively.

You need a track registry for workflow planning when dividing software work into features, bugs, and refactors. The registry enforces track IDs and lifecycle phases, providing a structured way to organize work and ensure traceability across phases.

Track management enforces unique track IDs and lifecycle phases to ensure governance and traceability. This structured approach coordinates work items across spec.md, plan.md, and the track lifecycle, preventing disorganization in software development workflows.
