What this skill does

The workflow tracks progress with a task list and recommends maintaining a changelog; later steps may stage repository files, create issues or PRs, and check deployments. Before repository or external actions, define the task scope and obtain confirmation. Stage only files related to the task, and review and redact logs before creating issues. The documented workflow uses Graphite and GitHub CLIs; deployment checking depends on the project's tools.

What you can do with it

Track TODO items and progress for feature work or bug fixes
Organize code-review and deployment-check steps for a change
Prepare a structured task-completion report

When to use it

When the task scope, repository, and expected deliverables are clear
When file changes can be reviewed and staging can be limited to task-specific files
When explicit confirmation can be obtained before creating PRs, issues, or triggering deployment

Example prompts

Generated from the skill’s documentation as examples; not results of actual runs.

List TODO, verification, and review steps for a scoped bug fix. Do not run Git, Graphite, GitHub, or deployment commands.

The counting method changed in 2026-09: skills with the same name are now counted separately by author, and the full catalog is covered. Dashed lines show months before the change; they are not compared with later months, and no growth is computed across the change.

# Senior Dev

A 12-step production workflow that keeps context across compaction.

## Workflow

Show all (113 lines)


### 1. Setup
```bash
cd ~/Projects/<project>
```
Create or append to `TODO.md`:
```markdown
## [Date] Task: <description>
- [ ] Subtask 1
- [ ] Subtask 2
```

### 2-3. Execute & Track
Complete work, check off TODO items as done.

Update `CHANGELOG.md` (create if missing):
```markdown
## [Unreleased]
### Added/Changed/Fixed
- Description of change
```

### 4-5. Stage & Verify
```bash
git add -A
git diff --staged  # Verify changes match request
```

### 6-7. Create PR
Branch naming: `(issue|feature|fix)/<short-description>`

```bash
gt create "feature/add-dark-mode" -m "Add dark mode toggle"
gt submit
```

**If this fixes an issue**, create the issue first:
```bash
gh issue create --title "Bug: description" --body "Details..."
# Note the issue number
gt create "issue/42-fix-login-bug" -m "Fix login bug (#42)"
gt submit
```

### 8-9. Review Cycle
Wait for reviewer comments. Address feedback:
```bash
# Make fixes
git add -A
gt modify -m "Address review feedback"
gt submit
```

### 10-11. Post-Merge Deploy Check
After PR merges:
```bash
git checkout main && git pull
```

**For Vercel projects:**
```bash
# Watch deployment (polls until Ready/Error, auto-fetches logs on failure)
vl
```

If build fails → `gh issue create` with error logs, restart from step 6.

### 12. Report & Cleanup
Report completion format:
> ✅ [Project] Task completed
> PR: <url>
> Deploy: success/failed

## Quick Reference

| Step | Command | Purpose |
|------|---------|---------|
| Stage | `git add -A` | Stage all changes |
| Verify | `git diff --staged` | Review before commit |
| Branch | `gt create "type/name" -m "msg"` | Create branch + commit |
| PR | `gt submit` | Push + create/update PR |
| Issue | `gh issue create` | Track bugs/tasks |
| Deploy | `vl` | Watch build, auto-fetch logs on error |

## Branch Prefixes

- `feature/` — New functionality
- `fix/` — Bug fixes  
- `issue/` — Linked to GitHub issue (include #number)
- `chore/` — Maintenance, deps, config

## Files to Maintain

- **TODO.md** — Active task tracking (survives context compaction)
- **CHANGELOG.md** — Version history
- **PLAN.md** — Architecture decisions (optional)

## Tools Required

- `gt` — [Graphite CLI](https://graphite.dev) for stacked PRs
- `gh` — [GitHub CLI](https://cli.github.com) for issues
- `vl` — Vercel deploy watcher (or `vercel` CLI)
