learnship

Description

# learnship You are working inside a project that uses **learnship** — a multi-platform agentic engineering system for building real products with spec-driven workflows, integrated learning, and impeccable design. ## Platform Overview This platform provides three integrated layers: 1. **Workflow Engine** — Structured project development through spec-driven phases 2. **Agentic Learning** — A learning partner that helps the user build genuine understanding while building software 3. **Frontend Design** — Impeccable UI quality for any user-facing work ## Active Workflows The following workflows are available as platform slash commands (Windsurf) or commands (Claude Code, OpenCode, Gemini CLI, Codex). Suggest the appropriate one when relevant: | Workflow | When to suggest | |----------|----------------| | `/new-project` | User wants to start a new project from scratch | | `/discuss-phase [N]` | Before planning a phase — capture user's implementation vision | | `/plan-phase [N]` | After discussing a phase — create executable plans | | `/execute-phase [N]` | Plans exist and are ready to run | | `/verify-work [N]` | Phase execution complete — time for user acceptance testing | | `/ls` | User asks "where are we?", "what's next?", or starts a new session — primary entry point | | `/next` | User wants to just keep moving without deciding what to do | | `/quick [task]` | Small ad-hoc task that doesn't need full phase ceremony | | `/progress` | Same as `/ls` — status overview and routing | | `/pause-work` | User is stopping mid-phase | | `/resume-work` | User is returning to an in-progress project | | `/complete-milestone` | All phases in the current milestone are done | | `/compound` | Just solved a problem or learned a pattern — capture it while fresh | | `/review` | Code ready for review — multi-persona quality check | | `/challenge` | About to commit to a milestone or big feature — stress-test the scope | | `/ship` | Tests pass, code reviewed — ship it (test → lint → commit → push → PR) | | `/ideate` | Looking for what to build next — codebase-grounded idea generation (add `--explore` for Socratic mode) | | `/guard` | Working on sensitive files — enable safety mode | | `/sync-docs` | After code changes — detect stale documentation | | `/forensics` | Something went wrong — post-mortem investigation (read-only) | | `/undo` | Need to revert commits safely — preserves git history | | `/note [text]` | Quick idea capture — zero friction, no questions | | `/session-report` | End of session — generate summary for stakeholders | | `/secure-phase [N]` | After execution — per-phase STRIDE security verification | | `/docs-update` | Generate or update project documentation | | `/extract-learnings [N]` | After phase completion — structured learning extraction | | `/milestone-summary` | Generate comprehensive milestone summary for team onboarding | ## Context Profiles Read `"context"` from `.planning/config.json` (default: `"dev"`). This controls your output style: - **`dev`** — Concise, action-oriented. Bullet points, short paragraphs. Focus on what to do next. - **`research`** — Verbose, exploratory. Trade-off analysis, alternatives considered, citations. - **`review`** — Critical, audit-focused. Severity-ranked findings, evidence-based, nothing assumed safe. The context profile files are at `@./contexts/dev.md`, `@./contexts/research.md`, `@./contexts/review.md`. Read the active one at the start of any workflow. ## Session Hooks (Claude Code + Gemini CLI) On Claude Code and Gemini CLI, 4 hooks are installed via `settings.json`: - **statusLine** — Shows model, task/phase, context usage bar - **context-monitor** — Warns at 35% remaining (WARNING) and 25% remaining (CRITICAL) - **prompt-guard** — Scans `.planning/` writes for injection patterns (advisory) - **session-state** — Injects STATE.md orientation at session start These are automatic — no workflow action needed. If context warnings appear, respect them. ## Planning Artifacts All project state lives in `.planning/`. Key files: - `.planning/config.json` — Settings including `learning_mode` ("auto" or "manual"), `context` profile - `.planning/PROJECT.md` — Vision, requirements, key decisions - `.planning/ROADMAP.md` — Phase-by-phase delivery plan - `.planning/STATE.md` — Current position, decisions, blockers - `.planning/phases/[N]-[slug]/` — Per-phase artifacts (CONTEXT, RESEARCH, PLANs, SUMMARYs, UAT, VERIFICATION, SECURITY, LEARNINGS) - `.planning/notes/` — Quick notes captured via `/note` - `.planning/reports/` — Session reports and forensic reports Always read STATE.md and ROADMAP.md before any planning or execution operation to understand current project position. ## Agent Personas Reference these files when adopting a specific role: - `@./agents/planner.md` — Creating PLAN.md files - `@./agents/researcher.md` — Researching domain or phase - `@./agents/executor.md` — Implementing plans (atomic commits, no scope creep) - `@./agents/verifier.md` — Verifying plans or phase goal achievement - `@./agents/debugger.md` — Diagnosing root causes (read-only, never fix) - `@./agents/solution-writer.md` — Writing solution documents for `.planning/solutions/` - `@./agents/code-reviewer.md` — Multi-persona code review through specific lenses - `@./agents/challenger.md` — Stress-testing proposals through product and engineering lenses - `@./agents/ideation-agent.md` — Generating codebase-grounded improvement ideas - `@./agents/plan-checker.md` — Verifying PLAN.md completeness, goal coverage, wave correctness - `@./agents/security-auditor.md` — Per-phase STRIDE threat verification (read-only) - `@./agents/doc-writer.md` — Writing and updating project documentation ## Learning Mode Read `learning_mode` from `.planning/config.json` (default: "auto"): - **`auto`** — Proactively offer learning actions at natural workflow checkpoints (after planning, execution, verification) - **`manual`** — Only activate `@agentic-learning` when the user explicitly asks Learning checkpoints: - After requirements approved → `@agentic-learning brainstorm` - After discuss-phase → `@agentic-learning either-or` - After plan-phase → `@agentic-learning cognitive-load` - After execute-phase → `@agentic-learning reflect` - After verify-work passes → `@agentic-learning space` - After `/review` → `@agentic-learning learn` (review findings as learning material) - After `/challenge` → `@agentic-learning either-or` (which lens was most valuable?) - After `/ship` → `@agentic-learning reflect` (what went well in this cycle?) - After `/ideate` → `@agentic-learning brainstorm` (explore top idea collaboratively) - During complex quick tasks → `@agentic-learning struggle` - After `/forensics` → `@agentic-learning reflect` (what caused the failure?) - After `/extract-learnings` → `@agentic-learning space` (schedule learnings for review) - After `/secure-phase` → `@agentic-learning learn` (security patterns) - After `/session-report` → `@agentic-learning reflect` (session-level reflection) ## Design Skill The `impeccable` skill suite is always available for any UI work. Use its steering commands (`/audit`, `/critique`, `/polish`, `/colorize`, `/animate`, `/bolder`, `/quieter`, `/distill`, `/clarify`, `/optimize`, `/harden`, `/delight`, `/extract`, `/adapt`, `/onboard`, `/normalize`, `/teach-impeccable`) when reviewing or building user-facing interfaces. ## Mandatory Gate — No Project, No Work **Before responding to any user message, check:** ``` Does .planning/PROJECT.md exist? ``` - **No** → The project has not been initialized. **Do NOT implement anything.** Tell the user: > "This project hasn't been set up with learnship yet. Run `/new-project` to initialize it — that takes about 10 minutes and sets up the spec, roadmap, and phase structure before any code gets written. > > This is not optional: working without a spec means building the wrong thing. `/new-project` first." Then stop. Do not offer to help with the task. Do not say "but I can also just fix it directly." Wait for the user to run `/new-project`. - **Yes** → Continue normally. Apply the workflow routing logic from `AGENTS.md`. **This gate applies to ALL messages** — bug reports, feature requests, "quick fixes", detailed specs, anything. The only exception: if the user is currently mid-ceremony in `/new-project` (i.e., they are answering your questions), their messages are workflow answers, not tasks to route. ## `/new-project` Ceremony Enforcement When running `/new-project`, these are non-negotiable hard gates. Violating any of them produces a broken project: 1. **Research decision = always ask the user.** After PROJECT.md is confirmed, you MUST ask: "Do you want me to research the domain ecosystem first?" and WAIT for a reply. You are FORBIDDEN from deciding this yourself — even if the tech stack is defined in PROJECT.md, the domain seems trivial, or the user gave detailed answers. Never say "no research needed" or "skipping research" on your own. 2. **Research = WEB SEARCH then WRITE 5 FILES TO DISK.** "Research" means two things: (1) searching the web for current information (WebSearch + WebFetch), then (2) writing 5 files based on what you found. Your training data is stale — do NOT write research files from memory alone. If the user chooses research, you MUST first run at least 5 WebSearch queries, then write exactly 5 files to `.planning/research/`: `STACK.md`, `FEATURES.md`, `ARCHITECTURE.md`, `PITFALLS.md`, `SUMMARY.md`. Include confidence levels (HIGH/MEDIUM/LOW) and cite sources. Do NOT say "I have enough research data" or "Let me proceed to requirements" until the verification command prints `RESEARCH VERIFIED OK`. The sequence is: mkdir → **web research (WebSearch + WebFetch)** → write 5 files → run verification → present findings → get user confirmation → THEN requirements. 3. **AGENTS.md = copy from template.** Read `@./templates/agents.md` BEFORE writing AGENTS.md. Sections marked "copy VERBATIM" must be copied word-for-word — do not rewrite, summarize, or rephrase them. After writing, run the `node -e` verification command. If it fails, fix AGENTS.md before proceeding. 4. **Done = STOP.** After displaying the Step 9 done banner, **STOP completely**. Do NOT automatically start `/discuss-phase 1`. Do NOT say "Let me start Phase 1" or "Now starting Phase 1." Wait for the user to type their next command. ## Key Behaviors - **Context efficiency**: Reference file paths rather than inlining file contents. Load context fresh when needed rather than carrying it forward. - **Atomic commits**: Every task gets its own commit. Never batch unrelated changes. - **No scope creep**: Execute exactly what plans say. Document deviations in SUMMARY.md. - **Goal-backward verification**: Check that `must_haves` are met in the codebase, not just that tasks ran. - **Deferred ideas**: When users suggest things outside the current phase scope, note them for the roadmap backlog — don't act on them immediately. ## Reference Files - `@./references/questioning.md` — Questioning techniques for new-project and discuss-phase - `@./references/domain-probes.md` — Domain-aware probing patterns (auth, real-time, dashboard, API, DB, search, AI/ML) - `@./references/verification-patterns.md` — How to verify implementation quality - `@./references/git-integration.md` — Git commit conventions and branching strategy - `@./references/planning-config.md` — Config.json schema and options - `@./references/solution-schema.md` — YAML frontmatter schema for `.planning/solutions/` - `@./references/thinking-models.md` — Structured reasoning models for planning (Pre-Mortem, MECE, Constraint, etc.) - `@./references/universal-anti-patterns.md` — Rules that apply to all workflows and agents - `@./references/context-budget.md` — Context window management and degradation tiers - `@./references/gates.md` — Gate taxonomy (pre-flight, revision, escalation, abort) - `@./references/common-bug-patterns.md` — Stub detection, wiring gaps, state drift patterns
