iterate

A command for closing one software development iteration and starting the next one.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to run delivery checks, archive iteration files, commit and tag changes, and bump the project version.
Why use it?
It checks that tasks, urgent issues, version details, and configured CI checks are complete before archiving work and creating a versioned commit.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

iterate scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 170 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

ITERATE — Iteration Delivery

General Principles

/iterate is dev-flow's iteration wrap-up command. After execution completes current version delivery and starts next iteration. Includes all responsibilities of original /done (delivery check) and original /iterate (archive + reset).

Pre-checks (blocking)

dow iterate auto-executes, stops if any fails:

  1. All tasks in task files must be checked [x] (audit mode skips)
  2. No unclosed P0 issues
  3. VERSION file exists and format legal
  4. All CI steps in .dev-doc/preIterate.ci must succeed (if file exists)

Parameters

Parameter Description Default
--topic Archive topic (for archive directory naming) Required
--type commit type (feat/fix/refactor/docs/perf/test/style/workflow) Required
--files Additional source code files/directories to commit (space-separated). No need to pass .dev-doc/ files — they're auto-managed by iterate (archive delete + git add -u). Paths are validated before preIterate executes — do not include files that will be dynamically generated by preIterate steps (those are auto-collected). Optional
-v/--bump Version increment type: major/minor/patch patch
--tag Force create git tag for patch bump -
--confirm Confirmation token (ITR-xxxxxx, from preview output) -

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

iterate is a command published in the GitHub repository daphnee-ovo/dev-flow (2 stars, last pushed 17d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 14 tokens to every session and 2,036 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
