<objective> Create all phases necessary to close gaps identified by `/kata:kata-audit-milestone`.

Reads MILESTONE-AUDIT.md, groups gaps into logical phases, creates phase entries in ROADMAP.md, and offers to plan each phase.

One command creates all fix phases — no manual /kata:kata-add-phase per gap. </objective>

<execution_context>

</execution_context>

<context> **Audit results:** Glob: .planning/v*-MILESTONE-AUDIT.md (use most recent)

Original intent (for prioritization): @.planning/PROJECT.md @.planning/REQUIREMENTS.md

Current state: @.planning/ROADMAP.md @.planning/STATE.md </context>

1. Load Audit Results

bash

# Find the most recent audit file
find .planning -maxdepth 1 -name "v*-MILESTONE-AUDIT.md" 2>/dev/null | head -1

Parse YAML frontmatter to extract structured gaps:

•gaps.requirements — unsatisfied requirements
•gaps.integration — missing cross-phase connections
•gaps.flows — broken E2E flows

If no audit file exists or has no gaps, error:

code

No audit gaps found. Run `/kata:kata-audit-milestone` first.

2. Prioritize Gaps

Group gaps by priority from REQUIREMENTS.md:

Priority	Action
`must`	Create phase, blocks milestone
`should`	Create phase, recommended
`nice`	Ask user: include or defer?

For integration/flow gaps, infer priority from affected requirements.

3. Group Gaps into Phases

Cluster related gaps into logical phases:

Grouping rules:

•Same affected phase → combine into one fix phase
•Same subsystem (auth, API, UI) → combine
•Dependency order (fix stubs before wiring)
•Keep phases focused: 2-4 tasks each

Example grouping:

code

Gap: DASH-01 unsatisfied (Dashboard doesn't fetch)
Gap: Integration Phase 1→3 (Auth not passed to API calls)
Gap: Flow "View dashboard" broken at data fetch

→ Phase 6: "Wire Dashboard to API"
  - Add fetch to Dashboard.tsx
  - Include auth header in fetch
  - Handle response, update state
  - Render user data

4. Determine Phase Numbers

Find highest existing phase:

bash

# Scan all phase directories across states
ALL_PHASE_DIRS=""
for state in active pending completed; do
  [ -d ".planning/phases/${state}" ] && ALL_PHASE_DIRS="${ALL_PHASE_DIRS} $(find .planning/phases/${state} -maxdepth 1 -type d -not -name "${state}" 2>/dev/null)"
done
# Fallback: include flat directories (backward compatibility)
FLAT_DIRS=$(find .planning/phases -maxdepth 1 -type d -name "[0-9]*" 2>/dev/null)
[ -n "$FLAT_DIRS" ] && ALL_PHASE_DIRS="${ALL_PHASE_DIRS} ${FLAT_DIRS}"
echo "$ALL_PHASE_DIRS" | tr ' ' '\n' | sort -V | tail -1

New phases continue from there:

•If Phase 5 is highest, gaps become Phase 6, 7, 8...

5. Present Gap Closure Plan

markdown

## Gap Closure Plan

**Milestone:** {version}
**Gaps to close:** {N} requirements, {M} integration, {K} flows

### Proposed Phases

**Phase {N}: {Name}**
Closes:
- {REQ-ID}: {description}
- Integration: {from} → {to}
Tasks: {count}

**Phase {N+1}: {Name}**
Closes:
- {REQ-ID}: {description}
- Flow: {flow name}
Tasks: {count}

{If nice-to-have gaps exist:}

### Deferred (nice-to-have)

These gaps are optional. Include them?
- {gap description}
- {gap description}

---

Create these {X} phases? (yes / adjust / defer all optional)

Wait for user confirmation.

6. Update ROADMAP.md

Add new phases to current milestone:

markdown

### Phase {N}: {Name}
**Goal:** {derived from gaps being closed}
**Requirements:** {REQ-IDs being satisfied}
**Gap Closure:** Closes gaps from audit

### Phase {N+1}: {Name}
...

7. Create Phase Directories

bash

# New gap closure phases go into pending/ subdirectory
mkdir -p ".planning/phases/pending/{NN}-{name}"

8. Commit Roadmap Update

Check planning config:

bash

COMMIT_PLANNING_DOCS=$(cat .planning/config.json 2>/dev/null | grep -o '"commit_docs"[[:space:]]*:[[:space:]]*[^,}]*' | grep -o 'true\|false' || echo "true")
git check-ignore -q .planning 2>/dev/null && COMMIT_PLANNING_DOCS=false

If COMMIT_PLANNING_DOCS=false: Skip git operations

If COMMIT_PLANNING_DOCS=true (default):

bash

git add .planning/ROADMAP.md
git commit -m "docs(roadmap): add gap closure phases {N}-{M}"

9. Offer Next Steps

markdown

## ✓ Gap Closure Phases Created

**Phases added:** {N} - {M}
**Gaps addressed:** {count} requirements, {count} integration, {count} flows

---

## ▶ Next Up

**Plan first gap closure phase**

`/kata:kata-plan-phase {N}`

<sub>`/clear` first → fresh context window</sub>

---

**Also available:**
- `/kata:kata-execute-phase {N}` — if plans already exist
- `cat .planning/ROADMAP.md` — see updated roadmap

---

**After all gap phases complete:**

`/kata:kata-audit-milestone` — re-audit to verify gaps closed
`/kata:kata-complete-milestone {version}` — archive when audit passes

</process>

How Gaps Become Tasks

Requirement gap → Tasks:

yaml

gap:
  id: DASH-01
  description: "User sees their data"
  reason: "Dashboard exists but doesn't fetch from API"
  missing:
    - "useEffect with fetch to /api/user/data"
    - "State for user data"
    - "Render user data in JSX"

becomes:

phase: "Wire Dashboard Data"
tasks:
  - name: "Add data fetching"
    files: [src/components/Dashboard.tsx]
    action: "Add useEffect that fetches /api/user/data on mount"

  - name: "Add state management"
    files: [src/components/Dashboard.tsx]
    action: "Add useState for userData, loading, error states"

  - name: "Render user data"
    files: [src/components/Dashboard.tsx]
    action: "Replace placeholder with userData.map rendering"

Integration gap → Tasks:

yaml

gap:
  from_phase: 1
  to_phase: 3
  connection: "Auth token → API calls"
  reason: "Dashboard API calls don't include auth header"
  missing:
    - "Auth header in fetch calls"
    - "Token refresh on 401"

becomes:

phase: "Add Auth to Dashboard API Calls"
tasks:
  - name: "Add auth header to fetches"
    files: [src/components/Dashboard.tsx, src/lib/api.ts]
    action: "Include Authorization header with token in all API calls"

  - name: "Handle 401 responses"
    files: [src/lib/api.ts]
    action: "Add interceptor to refresh token or redirect to login on 401"

Flow gap → Tasks:

yaml

gap:
  name: "User views dashboard after login"
  broken_at: "Dashboard data load"
  reason: "No fetch call"
  missing:
    - "Fetch user data on mount"
    - "Display loading state"
    - "Render user data"

becomes:

# Usually same phase as requirement/integration gap
# Flow gaps often overlap with other gap types
