joplin-llm-wiki: Command for Claude Code

Implement tasks from a Spectra change.

Input: Optionally specify a change name (e.g., /spectra:apply add-auth). If omitted, check if it can be inferred from conversation context. If vague or ambiguous you MUST prompt for available changes.

Task tracking is file-based only. The tasks file's markdown checkboxes (- [ ] / - [x]) are the single source of truth for progress. Do NOT use any external task management system, built-in task tracker, or todo tool. When a task is done, edit the checkbox in the tasks file — that is the only way to record progress.

Prerequisites: This skill requires the spectra CLI. If any spectra command fails with "command not found" or similar, report the error and STOP.

Steps

1. Select the change

   If a name is provided, use it. Otherwise:

   • Infer from conversation context if the user mentioned a change
   • Auto-select if only one active change exists
   • If ambiguous, run spectra list --json AND spectra list --parked --json to get all available changes (including parked ones). Parked changes should be annotated with "(parked)" in the selection list. Use the AskUserQuestion tool to let the user select

   Always announce: "Using change: " and how to override (e.g., /spectra:apply <other>).

2. Check status to understand the schema

   spectra status --change "<name>" --json
   

   If the command fails: show the error and STOP.

   If the command succeeds, check whether the change is parked (status can succeed even for parked changes):

   spectra list --parked --json
   

   Look for the change name in the parked array of the JSON output.

   • If the change IS in the parked list (it's parked): Inform the user that this change is currently parked（暫存）. Use the AskUserQuestion tool to ask whether to continue. Two options:

     • Continue: Unpark the change and proceed with apply
     • Cancel: Stop the workflow

     If the user chooses to continue:

     spectra unpark "<name>"
     

     Then mark it as in-progress:

     spectra in-progress add "<name>"
     

     This is a silent operation — do not show the output to the user.

     Then re-run spectra status --change "<name>" --json and continue normally.

     If there is no AskUserQuestion tool available (non-Claude-Code environment): Inform the user that this change is currently parked（暫存）and ask via plain text whether to unpark and continue, or cancel. Wait for the user's response. If the user confirms, run spectra unpark "<name>", then set spectra in-progress add "<name>", and continue normally.

   • If the change is NOT in the parked list: mark it as in-progress and proceed normally.

     spectra in-progress add "<name>"
     

     This is a silent operation — do not show the output to the user.

   Parse the JSON to understand:

   • schemaName: The workflow being used (e.g., "spec-driven")
   • Which artifact contains the tasks (typically "tasks" for spec-driven, check status for others)

3. Get apply instructions

   spectra instructions apply --change "<name>" --json
   

   This returns:

   • Context file paths (varies by schema)
   • Progress (total, complete, remaining)
   • Task list with status
   • Dynamic instruction based on current state

   Handle states:

   • If state: "blocked" (missing artifacts): show message, suggest using /spectra:propose to create the change artifacts first
   • If state: "all_done": congratulate, suggest archive
   • Otherwise: proceed to implementation

3b. Preflight check

If the apply instructions JSON includes a preflight field, act on its status:

• "clean": silently continue — no output needed.
• "warnings": display a brief summary, then continue automatically:

  ⚠ Preflight warnings:
  - Drifted files (modified after change was created): <list paths>
  - Change is <N> days old
  Continuing...
  

  Only show the lines that are relevant (skip drifted if none, skip staleness if not stale).
• "critical": display missing files with their source artifact, then use the AskUserQuestion tool to ask the user:
