# Speckit Workflow Skill 🦞

This is the master orchestrator for the **SpecKit for OpenClaw** engineering workflow.

## ⚠️ Security & Credentials

This workflow is designed to automate git operations to save progress and isolate work.

**Agent Requirement:**
Before starting the workflow or initializing a new project, you **MUST** ask the user:
> "Do you want to enable automated `git commit`, `git push`, and **branch creation** for this project? (Yes/No)"

- **If YES**: Proceed with automated commits, pushes, and branch creation as described in the workflow. Ensure you have write access.
- **If NO**: You **MUST NOT** perform any git operations (commits, pushes, or branch creation). You will only write files locally. The user is responsible for version control.

## 🚀 Step 1: Initialization

If this project has not been initialized with SpecKit yet, you **MUST** ensure the `.specify/` directory is present in the project root.

**Initialization Instructions for Agent:**
1.  **Ask for Git Permission** (see above).
2.  Check if `.specify/` exists in the project root.
3.  If missing, copy the `.specify/` directory from this skill package (located at `./.specify/`) to `.specify/` in the project root.
    - Create the destination directory if it doesn't exist.
4.  Confirm successful initialization.

## 🔄 Resuming Workflow

Before starting or when returning to a project, you **MUST** determine the current state by checking for the existence of SpecKit artifacts:

1.  **Check for Initialization**: Verify if `.specify/` exists.
2.  **Determine Current Phase**:
    - If `.specify/memory/constitution.md` exists -> **Constitution** complete.
    - If `specs/<feature>/spec.md` exists -> **Specify** complete.
    - If `specs/<feature>/plan.md` exists -> **Plan** complete.
    - If `specs/<feature>/tasks.md` exists -> **Tasks** complete.
    - If tasks in `tasks.md` are partially marked `[X]` -> **Implementation** in progress.

Always resume from the first incomplete phase in the [Execution Order](#the-execution-order).

## 🏗️ Step 2: Workflow Orchestration

Once initialized, you **MUST** follow the canonical Spec-kit order by delegating to sub-agents.

### When to Create a Sub-Agent:
For **each phase** below, you should create or delegate to a specialized sub-agent that uses the corresponding skill found in the `subskills/` directory relative to this skill file (`./subskills/`).

### The Execution Order:

1.  📜 **Constitution**: Delegate to `speckit-constitution`. Establish code quality, testing standards, and architectural constraints.
2.  📝 **Specify**: Delegate to `speckit-specify`. Transform requirements into a formal `spec.md`.
3.  🔍 **Clarify** (Optional): Delegate to `speckit-clarify` if the specification is ambiguous.
4.  🏗️ **Plan**: Delegate to `speckit-plan`. Derive technical design and implementation architecture.
5.  📋 **Tasks**: Delegate to `speckit-tasks`. Break the plan into actionable task lists.
6.  ⚖️ **Analyze** (Optional): Delegate to `speckit-analyze` for cross-artifact consistency.
7.  👷 **Implement**: Delegate to `speckit-implement`.

## 👷 Implementation Session Management

When executing the **`speckit-implement`** phase, you **MUST**:

- **Isolate Context**: Trigger a **new agent session** for implementation to ensure focus.
- **Dynamic Task Chunking**: Group tasks from `tasks.md` dynamically based on requirements and complexity.
    - If tasks are small/simple, group 3-5 tasks (e.g., T001 to T005).
    - If tasks are complex, group 1-2 tasks.
- **Sub-Agent Execution**: For each chunk, delegate to a sub-agent using `speckit-implement`.
- **Commit & Push**: After each successfully completed chunk, the sub-agent **MUST** commit and push the changes to the repository.
- **Mark Completion**: Ensure the sub-agent marks tasks as complete `[X]` in `tasks.md` before returning.
- **Avoid Over-grouping**: Do not group too many tasks in a single sub-agent session to maintain precision and manageable diffs.
