Start Review Session

name: start-review description: "Start a review session from an existing plan and implementation. Discovers available plans, validates implementation exists, and invokes the technical-review skill." disable-model-invocation: true allowed-tools: Bash(.claude/scripts/discovery-for-implementation-and-review.sh)

Invoke the technical-review skill for this conversation.

Workflow Context

This is Phase 6 of the six-phase workflow:

| Phase | Focus | You | |-------|-------|-----| | 1. Research | EXPLORE - ideas, feasibility, market, business | | | 2. Discussion | WHAT and WHY - decisions, architecture, edge cases | | | 3. Specification | REFINE - validate into standalone spec | | | 4. Planning | HOW - phases, tasks, acceptance criteria | | | 5. Implementation | DOING - tests first, then code | | | 6. Review | VALIDATING - check work against artifacts | ◀ HERE |

Stay in your lane: Verify that every plan task was implemented, tested adequately, and meets quality standards. Don't fix code - identify problems. You're reviewing, not building.

Instructions

Follow these steps EXACTLY as written. Do not skip steps or combine them. Present output using the EXACT format shown in examples - do not simplify or alter the formatting.

CRITICAL: This guidance is mandatory.

• After each user interaction, STOP and wait for their response before proceeding
• Never assume or anticipate user choices
• Even if the user's initial prompt seems to answer a question, still confirm with them at the appropriate step
• Complete each step fully before moving to the next
• Do not act on gathered information until the skill is loaded - it contains the instructions for how to proceed

---

Step 0: Run Migrations

This step is mandatory. You must complete it before proceeding.

Invoke the /migrate skill and assess its output.

If files were updated: STOP and wait for the user to review the changes (e.g., via git diff) and confirm before proceeding to Step 1. Do not continue automatically.

If no updates needed: Proceed to Step 1.

---

Step 1: Run Discovery Script

Run the discovery script to gather current state:

.claude/scripts/discovery-for-implementation-and-review.sh

This outputs structured YAML. Parse it to understand:

From plans section:

• exists - whether any plans exist
• files - list of plans with: name, topic, status, date, format, specification, specification_exists, plan_id (if present)
• count - total number of plans

From state section:

• scenario - one of: "no_plans", "single_plan", "multiple_plans"

IMPORTANT: Use ONLY this script for discovery. Do NOT run additional bash commands (ls, head, cat, etc.) to gather state - the script provides everything needed.

→ Proceed to Step 2.

---

Step 2: Route Based on Scenario

Use state.scenario from the discovery output to determine the path:

If scenario is "no_plans"

No plans exist yet.

No plans found in docs/workflow/planning/

The review phase requires a completed implementation based on a plan. Please run /start-planning first to create a plan, then /start-implementation to build it.

STOP. Wait for user to acknowledge before ending.

If scenario is "single_plan" or "multiple_plans"

Plans exist.

→ Proceed to Step 3 to present options.

---

Step 3: Present Plans and Select

Present all discovered plans to help the user make an informed choice.

Present the full state:

Available Plans:

  1. {topic-1} ({status}) - format: {format}, spec: {exists|missing}
  2. {topic-2} ({status}) - format: {format}, spec: {exists|missing}

· · ·

Which plan would you like to review the implementation for? (Enter a number or name)

If single plan exists (auto-select):

Auto-selecting: {topic} (only available plan)

→ Proceed directly to Step 4.

If multiple plans exist:

STOP. Wait for user response.

→ Based on user choice, proceed to Step 4.

---

Step 4: Identify Implementation Scope

Ask the user what code to review:

· · ·

What code should I review?

1. All changes since the plan was created
2. Specific directories or files
3. Let me identify from git status

Which approach?

STOP. Wait for user response.

If they choose specific directories/files, ask them to specify.

→ Proceed to Step 5.

---

Step 5: Invoke the Skill

After completing the steps above, this skill's purpose is fulfilled.

Invoke the technical-review skill for your next instructions. Do not act on the gathered information until the skill is loaded - it contains the instructions for how to proceed.

Example handoff:

Review session for: {topic}
Plan: docs/workflow/planning/{topic}.md
Format: {format}
Plan ID: {plan_id} (if applicable)
Specification: {specification} (exists: {true|false})
Scope: {all changes | specific paths | from git status}

Invoke the technical-review skill.
