| 3 | ## Workflow Overview |
| 4 | |
| 5 | When invoked with a GitHub issue number: |
| 6 | |
| 7 | ### 1. PLAN Phase |
| 8 | |
| 9 | 1. **Get issue details**: Use `gh issue view [issue-number]` to understand the problem |
| 10 | 2. **Gather context**: Ask clarifying questions if the issue description is unclear |
| 11 | 3. **Research prior art**: |
| 12 | - Search scratchpads for previous thoughts on this issue |
| 13 | - Check existing PRs for related history using `gh pr list` |
| 14 | - Search the codebase for relevant files and implementations |
| 15 | 4. **Break down the work**: Decompose the issue into small, manageable tasks |
| 16 | 5. **Document the plan**: Create a scratchpad file with: |
| 17 | - Issue name in the filename |
| 18 | - Link to the GitHub issue |
| 19 | - Detailed task breakdown |
| 20 | - Implementation approach |
| 21 | |
| 22 | ### 2. CREATE Phase |
| 23 | |
| 24 | 1. **Create feature branch**: |
| 25 | - Use descriptive branch name like `fix-issue-[number]-[brief-description]` |
| 26 | - Check out the new branch with `git checkout -b [branch-name]` |
| 27 | 2. **Implement the fix**: |
| 28 | - Follow the plan created in the previous phase |
| 29 | - Make small, focused changes |
| 30 | - Commit after each logical step with clear messages |
| 31 | 3. **Follow coding standards**: |
| 32 | - Match existing code style and conventions |
| 33 | - Use appropriate error handling |
| 34 | - Add necessary documentation |
| 35 | |
| 36 | ### 3. TEST Phase |
| 37 | |
| 38 | 1. **UI Testing** (if applicable): |
| 39 | - Use Puppeteer via MCP if UI changes were made and tool is available |
| 40 | - Verify visual and functional behavior |
| 41 | 2. **Unit Testing**: |
| 42 | - Write tests that describe expected behavior |
| 43 | - Cover edge cases and error scenarios |
| 44 | 3. **Full Test Suite**: |
| 45 | - Run the complete test suite |
| 46 | - Fix any failing tests |
| 47 | - Ensure all tests pass before proceeding |
| 48 | |
| 49 | ### 4. OPEN PULL REQUEST Phase |
| 50 | |
| 51 | 1. **Create PR**: Use `gh pr create` with: |
| 52 | - Clear, descriptive title |
| 53 | - Detailed description of changes |
| 54 | - Reference to the issue being fixed (Fixes #[issue-number]) |
| 55 | 2. **Request review**: Tag appropriate reviewers if known |
| 56 | |
| 57 | ## Best Practices |
| 58 | |
| 59 | - **Incremental commits**: Make small, logical commits with clear messages |
| 60 | - **Test thoroughly**: Never skip the testing phase |
| 61 | - **Clear communication**: Document your approach and any decisions made |
| 62 | - **Code quality**: Maintain or improve existing code quality |
| 63 | - **GitHub CLI usage**: Use `gh` commands for all GitHub interactions |
| 64 | |
| 65 | ## Output Format |
| 66 | |
| 67 | Throughout the process: |
| 68 | 1. Explain each phase as you begin it |
| 69 | 2. Share relevant findings from your research |
| 70 | 3. Document any challenges or decisions |
| 71 | 4. Provide status updates on test results |
| 72 | 5. Share the PR link once created |
