phase-init — Canonical Playbook

Scaffold a new docs/PHASE_XX.md from docs/PHASE_TEMPLATE.md using docs/SPEC.md, and append the phase row to docs/STATE.md.

This document is the single source of truth for the phase-init workflow.

In an integrated project, runtime wrappers under .claude/skills/<skill>/SKILL.md (Claude Code) and plugins/sdd-workflow/{commands,skills}/<skill>... (Codex) point here. The wrappers are thin stubs — every workflow detail lives in this file.

Input

  • Target phase number (e.g. 02).

Required reads

  • docs/PHASE_TEMPLATE.md
  • docs/PHASE_NOTES_TEMPLATE.md
  • docs/CONTEXT.md — note current _meta.version and phase_completed
  • docs/STATE.md — find the previous phase status
  • docs/SPEC.md — read all sections, especially §3 (data model), §4 (API/backend), §5 (frontend), §6 (infra), §8 (phases plan)

Procedure

1. Validate input

  • If no phase number was provided, ask: "Which phase number? e.g. /phase-init 02".
  • Normalize to two digits: 2 → 02, 10 → 10.
  • If docs/PHASE_XX.md already exists, warn and wait for confirmation before overwriting.

2. Confirm previous phase is complete

Look up PHASE_[XX-1] in docs/STATE.md:

  • ✅ done → proceed.
  • Anything else → warn: "PHASE_[XX-1] is not marked done (status: [status]). Starting the next phase before completing the previous one may cause context drift. Proceed anyway?" Wait for confirmation.
  • Creating PHASE_01 (no predecessor) → skip this check.

3. Request phase design assets (optional)

If the phase scope includes any frontend UI work, ask:

"Are there Figma screenshots for any screens in Phase [XX]? Attach them now, or type 'skip'."

If screenshots are provided:

  • For each screenshot, note the screen name and what it depicts (layout, key components, interactions).
  • Add a ## Design References section to the phase doc (placed after ## Phase Goal, before ## Scope) listing each screen with a one-line description.
  • Use the screenshots to make the ### Frontend scope checkboxes more concrete (specific component names, layout decisions visible in the design).

If skipped: omit the ## Design References section from the phase doc entirely.

4. Extract scope and contracts from docs/SPEC.md

Scope (from §8): phase title and all scope items. After extracting items, assign task IDs:

  1. Group items into: Backend, Frontend, Infra, Data, or ungrouped (Other).
  2. Assign IDs sequentially within each group: B1, B2… for Backend; F1, F2… for Frontend; I1… for Infra; D1… for Data; T1… for ungrouped items.
  3. Detect logical dependencies within the phase: migrations before models, models before routes, routes before tests. Express as _Depends on:_ B1 or — for none.
  4. Format each item: - [ ] \B2` [description] — Depends on: `B1``

IDs are stable once assigned. Never renumber. If a task is removed later, mark it ~~BN~~ (removed).

New DB tables / columns (from §3): tables first introduced in this phase, matched against the scope description. Paste verbatim blocks. Do not include tables that already existed.

New API endpoints (from §4.2): endpoint rows belonging to this phase. Include the full row — method, path, auth, description.

New TypeScript types and stores (from §3 + §5): derive types from new tables (map snake_case → camelCase; UUID → string; TIMESTAMPTZ → string; omit hashed_password and other sensitive columns from response types). From §5.2 identify stores first set up in this phase.

Files (from §4.1 + §5.1 + §5.2 + §6): explicit list of files to be created or modified, grouped as backend, frontend, infrastructure.

Env vars: env vars introduced for the first time in this phase, mapped to example values and required/optional.

If a section yields nothing for this phase, write None — never leave a subsection blank or as a generic TODO.

5. Create docs/PHASE_XX.md

Copy docs/PHASE_TEMPLATE.md and substitute placeholders:

Placeholder Value
[XX] Zero-padded phase number
[Phase Title] From SPEC.md §8
v0.[XX].0 Tag
PHASE_[XX-1] Previous phase
Scope checkboxes Items from §8 with task IDs assigned in step 4: - [ ] \B1` [item] — Depends on: —`
Files Explicit list from step 3
Contracts Extracted sections from step 3
Atomic Commit Message feat(phase-[XX]): [phase title lowercased] — [2–4 key deliverables], under 72 chars

Use [TODO: verify] only for details genuinely absent from SPEC.md (e.g. a smoke-test response body example). Do not invent data.

6. Create docs/PHASE_XX_NOTES.md

Copy docs/PHASE_NOTES_TEMPLATE.md and generate one task block per Scope item assigned in step 4:

```markdown

[ID] — [task description]

Depends on: [IDs or —]

Implementation Plan

Decisions & Notes

```

Save as docs/PHASE_[XX]_NOTES.md. Update the _Generated: date. Leave all sections empty — this is a stub. The Implementation Plans are populated later by /impl-brief.

7. Append the phase row to docs/STATE.md

Add to the Phase Status table:

| PHASE_[XX] | ⏳ pending | v0.[XX].0 | ⬜ | — | [Phase Title] |

8. Report

```

phase-init complete

Created: docs/PHASE_[XX].md Created: docs/PHASE_[XX]NOTES.md (stub — run /impl-brief [XX] to populate Implementation Plans) STATE.md: PHASE[XX] row added (⏳ pending)

Scope tasks assigned: - Backend: [B1, B2, … or "none"] - Frontend: [F1, F2, … or "none"] - Infra: [I1, … or "none"] - Data: [D1, … or "none"] - Other: [T1, … or "none"]

Contracts filled from SPEC.md: - DB tables: [list or "none"] - Endpoints: [count] rows - TS types: [list or "none"] - Stores: [list or "none"] - Env vars: [count] - Files: [count]

Before implementation, verify any remaining [TODO: verify] markers and the Gate Checks smoke-test expected response. Run /impl-brief [XX] (or /impl-brief [XX] [ID]) to generate concrete Implementation Plans. ```

Rules

  • Never modify docs/SPEC.md or docs/CONTEXT.md.
  • Extract contracts from SPEC.md — do not invent or leave blank.
  • Do not commit.

Done when

  • docs/PHASE_XX.md exists and is filled from docs/SPEC.md with task IDs in Scope.
  • docs/PHASE_XX_NOTES.md exists as a stub with one block per Scope task.
  • docs/STATE.md contains the new pending row.
