Work on Feature

Work on feature $ARGUMENTS following the incremental development approach.

Feature Workflow

1. Get Oriented: Start each session by getting oriented:

   pwd
   cat .claude/project-state.json
   cat claude-progress.txt
   git log --oneline -20
   git status
   

2. Select Feature: Choose ONE feature to work on:

   cat feature_list.json | jq '.features[] | select(.status == "failing")'
   

   • Select the highest priority failing feature (P0 > P1 > P2 > P3)
   • Do NOT work on multiple features in one session

3. Read Feature Details: Get complete feature information:

   cat feature_list.json | jq ".features[] | select(.id == \"F-XXX\")"
   

4. Plan Implementation: Create an implementation plan:

   • Current state
   • Changes required
   • Files to modify
   • Acceptance criteria
   • Verification steps

5. Implement Feature: Write the code:

   • Follow coding standards
   • Write clear comments
   • Handle errors properly
   • Consider security implications

6. Write Tests: Write comprehensive tests:

   • Unit tests for individual functions
   • Integration tests for component interactions
   • E2E tests for user workflows

7. Test Manually: Test as a human user would:

   • Start development server: source scripts/init.sh
   • Navigate to the feature
   • Test all acceptance criteria
   • Verify all verification steps

8. Update Feature Status: Only after thorough testing:

   jq '.features[] |= if .id == "F-XXX" then .status = "passing" else . end' feature_list.json > feature_list.json.tmp
   mv feature_list.json.tmp feature_list.json
   

9. Commit Progress: Commit to git with descriptive message:

   git add .
   git commit -m "feat: [feature description] (F-XXX)
   
   - [what was done]
   - [tests added]
   - [verification steps completed]
   
   Artifacts: P5-CODE-XXX, P5-TEST-XXX
   Feature: F-XXX
   Status: passing
   "
   

10. Update Progress: Update claude-progress.txt:

    cat >> claude-progress.txt <<EOF
    
    ### Session N - F-XXX Complete
    **Feature**: [feature description]
    **Status**:  PASSING
    **Tests**: Unit + Integration + E2E
    **Artifacts**: P5-CODE-XXX, P5-TEST-XXX
