Start Feature: $ARGUMENTS

Prerequisites

0. Load Configuration

Read .claude/project.config.json to get project configuration.

Variables to use:

• •{branchPrefix} = config.git.branchPrefixes.feature (default: feature/)
• •{mainBranch} = config.git.mainBranch (default: main)

Validation: If config.initialized === false, suggest running /setup first.

1. Check Git Status

!git status --short !git branch --show-current

IMPORTANT: If there are uncommitted changes, STOP and ask the user.

Start Process

2. Check BACKLOG

Read context/BACKLOG.md to verify if "$ARGUMENTS" is in the pending list.

• •If exists: move to "In Progress"
• •If not exists: add to "In Progress" with standard format

3. Create Branch

git checkout -b {branchPrefix}$ARGUMENTS

Branch format: {branchPrefix}descriptive-name (kebab-case)

4. Create Session

Generate session ID: YYYYMMDD-HHMM-$ARGUMENTS

Create session file in context/tmp/session-{ID}.md:

# Session: {ID}

- **Branch**: {branchPrefix}$ARGUMENTS
- **Start**: {date and time}
- **Status**: IN_PROGRESS

## Objective
[Description based on BACKLOG or $ARGUMENTS]

## Initial Context
- Base branch: {previous branch}
- Relevant files: [to be determined]

## Progress
<!-- Update during development -->

## Decisions
<!-- Document important technical decisions -->

## Session Pending Items
<!-- Items that arise during work -->

5. Update Context README

Add entry to "Active Sessions" table in context/README.md:

| {ID} | {branchPrefix}$ARGUMENTS | IN_PROGRESS | {date} | {description} |

Final Verification

• • Branch created and checkout done
• • Session created in context/tmp/
• • BACKLOG updated
• • Context README updated

Expected Output

Confirm:

1. •Active branch: {branchPrefix}$ARGUMENTS
2. •Session started: session-{ID}.md
3. •Configuration loaded from: .claude/project.config.json
4. •Ready for development
