SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? After finishing an implementation plan or phase, teams often lose track of what was actually done, what remains unverified, and whether the plan is safe to archive. This Skill produces a structured closeout packet that captures verification status, cleanup gaps, drift signals, and the exact next valid state so no work is silently lost. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Structured Closeout Packet: Generates a 9-item packet covering plan path, classification, finished work, verification status, cleanup, next state, commit checkpoint, regression status, and SPEC achievement. - Drift Signal Scoring: Counts up to 6 drift signals across files touched, harness changes, and protocol edits, then emits a verbatim LOW/MEDIUM/HIGH threshold phrase recommending UPDATE PROCESS urgency. - Simple and Deep Modes: Deep mode cross-checks git diffs, commit logs, and validate-contract gates against the plan checklist before writing claims, with explicit source citations. - Use Case: After completing a multi-phase feature implementation, invoke this Skill to classify the plan as ready for archival, score drift as HIGH due to harness file changes, and route the session into UPDATE PROCESS with a commit-checkpoint recommendation. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to generate the closeout packet for the plan file you just finished executing, for example by saying: generate the closeout packet for process/features/foo/active/foo_03-06-26/foo_PLAN_03-06-26.md.

Frequently Asked Questions about vc-generate-closeout

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a closeout packet after finishing a plan?

Invoke the skill with the plan path or phase name after execution completes. It produces a 9-item packet covering classification, finished work, verification, cleanup, next state, commit checkpoint, regression status, and SPEC achievement.

What is the difference between Simple mode and Deep mode?

Simple mode writes the packet directly from conversation context for short single-phase sessions. Deep mode runs git diff and git log checks, reads validate-contract gates, and cites evidence for every claim, and is required after context compaction or long sessions.

When should a plan be classified as ready for archival?

A plan is ready for UPDATE PROCESS archival only when the implemented work matches the plan path, verification evidence exists, no material deviations remain, cleanup is confirmed, and a validate-contract is present or its skip is documented.

How does drift signal scoring work?

The skill counts up to 6 signals across files touched, harness or protocol file changes, memory-worthy observations, structural changes, and validate-contract deviations. Scores map to LOW, MEDIUM, or HIGH bands, each requiring a verbatim threshold phrase in the output.

Why does closeout output validation fail?

The validation script fails if any of the 8 required closeout items are missing, if no verbatim drift-threshold phrase appears, or if the classification is not exactly one of the three allowed states. Check the packet headings and threshold wording against the schema.

When should I not use this closeout skill?

Skip it for trivial single-file fixes where no plan file is involved. It is designed for non-trivial EXECUTE completions, phase program boundaries, and sessions ending before plan archival.
