SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Resume work on the current Trellis task by loading the workflow Phase Index and identifying the exact phase and step to resume. It then retrieves the step-level details via get_context.py --mode phase to map the path forward. Use this when returning to an in-progress task to determine what to do next.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Load the current task context with get_context.py to understand the active task and recent commits.
  • Load the Phase Index to see the current play (Plan / Execute / Finish) and routing to the correct skill.
  • Decide the next actionable step by evaluating status and artifact presence, enabling seamless continuation.

Quick Start

Run python ./.trellis/scripts/get_context.py to load the current task context.

FAQPage Schema
How do I resume an in-progress task and load the current context?

To resume an in-progress task, run get_context.py to load the current task context and recent commits, which identifies the exact phase and step to resume. This restores your workflow state by evaluating status and artifact presence.

What is the Phase Index used for in workflow task management?

The Phase Index is a workflow structure that maps the current play—Plan, Execute, or Finish—and routes you to the correct skill. It guides task continuation by determining the next actionable step based on current status.

How do I determine the next actionable step when returning to a multi-phase task?

Determine the next actionable step by loading the Phase Index via get_context.py with the phase mode. This evaluates your task status and artifact presence to map a deterministic path forward for seamless continuation.

Does get_context.py work with status and artifacts to route task continuation?

Yes, get_context.py works with status and artifacts to route task continuation. It uses the phase mode to retrieve step-level details, ensuring deterministic continuation by directing action based on what artifacts are present.

What's the best way to continue Trellis tasks across different workflow phases?

The best way to continue Trellis tasks across phases is to use the phase index to identify your current play and load step-level details. This ensures you resume at the exact correct step by evaluating status and routing deterministically.

Why does my task resume at the wrong step after switching workflow phases?

Your task resumes at the wrong step if the current context and phase index are not loaded properly. Running get_context.py evaluates your actual status and artifact presence to map the correct path forward, preventing misrouting.
