Workflow Stages
Features move through these stages in order:
Backlog → Designing → In Progress → Review → Completed
| Stage | Description | Entry Criteria | Exit Criteria |
|---|---|---|---|
| Backlog | Identified but not prioritized | New feature idea | Prioritized for design |
| Designing | Being specified with tickets | Decision to build | Spec complete with tickets |
| In Progress | Active development | Design approved | All tickets implemented |
| Review | Awaiting manual review | Implementation done | Review passed |
| Completed | Shipped and verified | Review approved | Mark as done |
Commands
Parse the user's request and execute one of these operations:
1. Add Feature (add)
Add a new feature to the Backlog section:

- •Action: Add
- [ ] Email notifications (send alerts via email)to Backlog
2. Move Feature (move)
Move a feature to the next workflow stage:
- •Read
specs/FEATURE-QUEUE.md - •Find the feature in its current section
- •Remove it from the current section
- •Add it to the next section in the workflow
- •Write the updated file
Workflow progression:
- •Backlog → Designing
- •Designing → In Progress
- •In Progress → Review
- •Review → Completed (change
- [ ]to- [x])
Example:
- •User: "Move archive lifecycle to designing"
- •Action: Move the archive lifecycle item from Backlog to Designing
3. List Features (list or status)
Show current state of all features grouped by stage:
## Roadmap Status ### Backlog (7 items) - Archive lifecycle - Inbox triage tooling ... ### Designing (0 items) _None_ ### In Progress (0 items) _None_ ### Review (0 items) _None_ ### Completed (0 items) _None_
4. Prioritize (prioritize or reorder)
Reorder features within a section (items at top are higher priority):
- •Read
specs/FEATURE-QUEUE.md - •Parse the target section
- •Reorder items as requested
- •Write the updated file
Example:
- •User: "Move Slack adapter to top of backlog"
- •Action: Reorder Backlog so Slack adapter is first
5. Remove Feature (remove or delete)
Remove a feature from the queue entirely:
- •Read
specs/FEATURE-QUEUE.md - •Find and remove the feature
- •Write the updated file
Only use when a feature is abandoned or determined to be out of scope.
6. Create Spec (spec or design)
When moving a feature to Designing, offer to create a spec file:
- •Create
specs/features/{feature-name}.mdwith template:
# Feature: {Feature Name}

Examples
Adding a Feature

Moving a Feature Forward
User: "Move archive lifecycle to in progress" Action: 1. Read specs/FEATURE-QUEUE.md 2. Find "Archive lifecycle" in current section (Backlog or Designing) 3. Remove from current section 4. Add to "In Progress" section 5. Write updated file 6. Report: "Moved 'Archive lifecycle' from Backlog → In Progress"
Completing a Feature
User: "Mark Slack adapter as completed" Action: 1. Read specs/FEATURE-QUEUE.md 2. Find "Slack adapter" in Review section 3. Remove from Review 4. Add "- [x] Slack adapter" to Completed 5. Write updated file 6. Report: "Marked 'Slack adapter' as Completed"
Important Rules
- •Maintain order - Features at the top of each section are higher priority
- •One stage at a time - Features must move through stages in order (no skipping)
- •Preserve format - Keep the markdown structure consistent
- •Update placeholders - Replace "No features currently in X." when adding first item
- •Restore placeholders - Add placeholder text when a section becomes empty
- •Link specs - When moving to Designing, offer to create a spec document
