## Launch prompt

```
/goal next → resumed stored goal: F4 — split wgl-planning-and-executing → wgl-writing-plans + wgl-executing-plans (#128); then F5 wiring (#129). Part of the staged-gate SDLC refactor (Epic #125, F1–F5). F1 (handbook accretion+slice-retirement), F2 (wgl-brainstorming --lenses), F3 (wgl-tech-design) already shipped. F4 splits the build track into a plan-writing gate-lifter and a plan-executing gate-lifter; F5 then registers F3+F4 types in the gate-hook type table + finalize dispatch.

```

## Plan

> Anchor: design /Users/benstull/git/wiggleverse.org/wiggleverse/engineering/docs/sdl-pipeline-refactor-brief.md (R2a — the locked brief is the Solution Design; matches F2/F3 precedent)
> Eligibility: ELIGIBLE (R2a). Anchors #128 (F4) + #129 (F5), both type/feature, parent Epic #125.
> Design-readiness (Step 8.6): NO-UI — F4/F5 have no UI surface; skipped.

**Mission:** ship F4 (#128) + F5 (#129) of the staged-gate SDLC refactor (Epic #125).
F1/F2/F3 already shipped. This session does the build-track split + the cross-cutting wiring.

**F4 — split the build track (#128):**
- New gate-lifter `wgl-writing-plans`: one completed SPEC → ONE plan (whole Feature) →
  review GATE; does NOT execute. Posture **careful** (the plan is reviewed). Thin —
  reuses wgl-planning-and-executing Steps 1–7; wraps superpowers:writing-plans.
- New gate-lifter `wgl-executing-plans`: execute THAT plan → §9 pipeline. Posture
  **yolo**. Thin — reuses Steps 1–7; wraps superpowers:executing-plans /
  subagent-driven-development.
- No per-slice loop: the plan's native Task→Step structure IS the decomposition.
- `claim-session-id.sh`: promote `writing-plans`/`executing-plans` from legacy→current
  build types (posture map already aligns: writing-plans→careful, executing-plans→yolo).
- `test-posture-stamp.sh`: add the two new-type derivations.

**F5 — wiring + stale-reference sweep (#129):**
- `hooks/session-gate.md`: register tech-design (F3) + writing-plans + executing-plans;
  reframe the build track as the two-session flow; update the posture paragraph.
- `wgl-session-finalize` Step 0: dispatch tech-design→spec addendum; executing-plans→
  planning-and-executing addendum (already); **repurpose** writing-plans→NEW plan-archive
  arm (no pipeline — no execution). Remove legacy writing-plans→spec mapping.
- Update wgl-tech-design's bootstrap notes (F5 now landed).
- Stale-reference sweep (scoped per #129 to F1+F4 changes, NOT a blanket grep):
  SDLC-flow "slice"=build-unit prose + "fused planning-and-executing" references.
  OUT of scope (recorded): the wgl-design-handoff per-slice `Design:` field / `--slice`
  contract (a shipped feature's own vocabulary).
- plugin version bump → 0.59.0.

**Ship:** ONE PR closing #128 + #129 (the F4 skills are unreachable via the gate until
F5 wires them — one atomic, coherent increment; main stays coherent). bump 0.59.0.
Run `scripts/lint.sh --check-bump` before merge. Make live at finalize.

## Stale-reference sweep log (F5 / #129)

Scoped per #129 to the SDLC-flow prose F1+F4 made stale (not a blanket grep).

**Swept (slice→Task/Feature; fused→split; "five gate lifters"→accurate set):**
- `hooks/session-gate.md` — type table + posture paragraph + triggers.
- `skills/wgl-session-finalize/SKILL.md` + `wgl-session-common/finalize-core.md` — dispatch + addendum framing.
- `skills/wgl-session-common/SESSION-PROTOCOL.md` — tracked-init list + posture map.
- `skills/wgl-session-common/scripts/claim-session-id.sh` — build-type promotion.
- `skills/wgl-brainstorming/SKILL.md` — "slice"→Feature; gate-lifter set; design-track framing.
- `skills/wgl-capture/SKILL.md` + `references/capture-quality.md` — "implementation slice checklist / recommended slicing" → Task breakdown.
- `skills/wgl-tech-design/SKILL.md` — bootstrap-pending→wired; sibling set; `<slice>`→`<feature>`.
- `skills/wgl-planning-and-executing/SKILL.md` — reframed as Steps 1–7 library + retained fused path; roadmap/branch "slice"→Feature.
- `skills/wgl-session-none/SKILL.md`, `wgl-session-dev-handbook/SKILL.md`, `capture-dev-claude-plugin-feedback/SKILL.md` — "five gate lifters" framing.
- `.claude-plugin/plugin.json` — session-model description prose.

**Out of scope (recorded boundary):** the `wgl-design-handoff` feature's per-slice
`**Design:**` field, `--slice <SLICE-ID>` CLI, and `design-readiness.sh` contract
(its scripts/tests/spec §7.2) — a shipped feature's own spec vocabulary;
re-architecting it is its own change, not this stale-ref sweep. The
design-readiness Step 8.6 prose keeps "slice" to match that live `--slice` flag.
Also out of scope: `SLICE-N` design-doc citations and the §4.3 **issue**-type
"five-type table" (epic/feature/story/task/bug — unrelated to session types).

## Deferred decisions

_Autonomous-mode low-confidence calls the driver made and would have
liked operator input on. Appended as the session runs; surfaced at
finalize. Empty if none._

- **PR bundling (F4+F5 in one PR, bump 0.59.0).** The brief models F4/F5 as separate
  Features, but F4's new skills are unreachable through the gate until F5 wires them —
  shipping F4 alone would put unreachable skills on `main`. Bundled into one coherent
  PR (closes #128 + #129) so `main` stays coherent. Reversible (could have been two PRs).
- **Gate classification of generic build prompts.** Routed the build track through
  `wgl-writing-plans` as the default entry (and `wgl-executing-plans` for explicit
  "execute the plan" prompts), retiring `wgl-planning-and-executing` as a *classifier
  destination* while retaining it as the shared Steps 1–7 library + accepted token. This
  honors #128's "split / re-expressed as the two-session flow" and the new plan-review
  gate, rather than keeping a fused build entry that bypasses the gate.
- **writing-plans `> Type:` token repurposed.** The legacy `writing-plans` token mapped
  to the spec addendum (it once produced a spec); F4's new meaning produces a *plan*, so
  finalize now routes `writing-plans` → plan-archive. Any truly-old in-flight
  `writing-plans` placeholder would mis-archive, but none exist in this app's history.

## Session arc (turn-by-turn)

1. **Open + gate.** `/goal next` → session gate resolved the stored `**Next /goal:**`
   from memory → F4 + F5 of the SDLC refactor. Classified as planning-and-executing →
   invoked `wgl-planning-and-executing` init.
2. **Claim.** Computed start `2026-06-22T09-57`; dry-run peek (six day-old orphan
   `--INPROGRESS` placeholders 0035–0076, none ENDED-UNFINALIZED/live → no concurrency
   conflict); claimed **0079** (yolo, planning-and-executing). Already in worktree
   `pedantic-carson-35d379` → isolation satisfied.
3. **Orient.** Read the locked brief + issues #128/#129/#125. Eligibility: ELIGIBLE via
   R2a (the brief is the Solution Design — matches F2/F3 precedent; a bare `type/feature`
   is plan-ineligible). Step 8.6 design-readiness: NO-UI → skipped. Baseline clean.
4. **Read F5 targets.** wgl-tech-design (the F3 sibling template), session-gate.md,
   wgl-session-finalize Step 0 dispatch, claim-session-id.sh posture map,
   test-posture-stamp.sh, lenses-for-type.sh, lint.sh. Found the key wrinkle: the legacy
   `writing-plans`→spec finalize mapping collides with F4's new plan-producing meaning;
   the posture map already aligns the two new tokens by coincidence.
5. **Scoped the sweep.** grep for "slice"/"planning-and-executing"; drew the boundary —
   SDLC-flow prose in scope, the wgl-design-handoff per-slice `Design:`/`--slice`
   contract out (shipped feature's own vocab).
6. **Wrote the plan** (`/tmp/wgl-0079-plan-F4-F5.md`, 9 Tasks) + seeded the transcript
   Plan block + logged 3 deferred decisions.
7. **F4 build (Tasks 1–4).** claim-session-id.sh build-type promotion;
   test-posture-stamp.sh +2 (writing-plans→careful, executing-plans→yolo) → 13/13;
   authored `wgl-writing-plans/SKILL.md` + `wgl-executing-plans/SKILL.md` (thin
   gate-lifters on the wgl-tech-design pattern). Confirmed skills are auto-discovered
   (no manifest array).
8. **F5 build (Tasks 5–8).** session-gate.md type table + posture; wgl-session-finalize
   Step 0 dispatch + new writing-plans plan-archive arm; tech-design bootstrap→wired;
   scoped stale-ref sweep across 13 files; plugin.json → 0.59.0 + description.
9. **Ship (Task 9).** lint `--check-bump` clean; posture/lenses/session-id suites
   13/14/20 green; commit → push → PR #132 (Gitea API) → merge → #128/#129 auto-closed.
   Closed Epic #125 with an F1–F5 completion comment.
10. **Finalize.** Archived the plan to content `plans/`; made 0.59.0 live
    (`update-plugin.sh`, 0.58.0→0.59.0); updated memory (both topic files + index);
    worktree teardown + this transcript.

## Cut state

- **Shipped:** v0.59.0 on `main` (PR #132), made live. #128, #129, Epic #125 closed.
- **Repo:** clean; branch `claude/pedantic-carson-35d379` merged to `origin/main`.
- **Pipeline (§9):** plugin meta-change — no deployable UI app, so no flotilla/PPE
  stage; the "ship" is the plugin version made live. N/A by nature, not skipped.
- **Tests:** test-posture-stamp 13/13, test-lenses-for-type 14/14,
  test-session-id-ownership 20/20; lint clean (shellcheck not installed — skipped per
  policy; `bash -n` clean on changed scripts).
- **Artifact:** plan archived → `wiggleverse-dev-claude-plugin-content/plans/wgl-0079-plan-F4-F5.md`.

## Operator plate

- The full staged-gate SDLC pipeline is now bootstrapped and live for new sessions:
  `brainstorming → tech-design → SPEC ─GATE─▶ writing-plans ─GATE─▶ executing-plans → PPE`.
- **Restart or `/clear`** to load v0.59.0 (the new gate routes build prompts to
  `wgl-writing-plans`; `/wgl-writing-plans` and `/wgl-executing-plans` are now live).
- One follow-up candidate (not filed): reconcile the `wgl-design-handoff` per-slice
  `**Design:**`/`--slice` contract to the new no-slice model — deliberately out of F5's
  sweep as a shipped feature's own change.

## Next-session prompt

```
/goal <operator picks — Epic #125 (SDLC refactor) is complete; no queued coding work>
```

Live threads if redirected: **#96** (`wgl-next` readiness query) + **#99** (workflow-engine
epic) are `triaged:accepted`/design-gated → each its own `/wgl-brainstorming`; **#102**
(Phase-2 type-validation net) is being designed by session 0065 → implement once graduated.
