Session 0079.0 — Transcript

App: dev-claude-plugin Start: 2026-06-22T09-57 (PST) Type: planning-and-executing Posture: yolo Claude-Session: 988056c9-6874-4b3a-a623-e07e2e5e3b2e End: 2026-06-22T10-26 (PST) Status: FINALIZED.

Session 0079 shipped F4 + F5 of the staged-gate SDLC refactor, completing Epic #125. Outcome: PR #132 merged to main (v0.59.0, made live); #128, #129, and Epic #125 closed.

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)

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.
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.
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.
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.
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).
Wrote the plan (/tmp/wgl-0079-plan-F4-F5.md, 9 Tasks) + seeded the transcript Plan block + logged 3 deferred decisions.
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).
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.
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.
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.
