feature-start

feature-start is a command for Claude Code from jayvee/aigon. It costs 14 tokens per session (591 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of afs, Apache-2.0.

A command that prepares a feature for implementation by changing its project status and creating the required branch or worktree. A worktree is a separate checkout of the same Git repository for parallel work.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps start a feature in a regular branch, a single-agent worktree, or multiple parallel agent worktrees.
Why use it?
It prevents workflow records, specification files, branches, and worktrees from getting out of sync through manual setup.

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

feature-start 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 3d 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.

Origin

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 50 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

aigon-feature-start

Prepare your workspace to implement a feature in Drive or Fleet mode.

CRITICAL: Use the CLI command below. Do NOT manually move spec files, lifecycle-view links, create branches, or create worktrees — the CLI records the workflow transition and prepares branch/worktree state.

Argument Resolution

If no ID is provided or doesn't match a backlog entry, list ./docs/specs/features/02-backlog/feature-*.md, filter to matches, and ask the user to choose.

Step 1: Run the CLI

Pass EXACTLY the args the user provided. Do NOT add agents that weren't specified.

# Drive mode (branch in current repo) — ID only
aigon feature-start {{args}}

# Drive worktree mode (parallel development) — ID + 1 agent
aigon feature-start {{args}} <agent>

# Fleet mode (competition) — ID + 2+ agents
aigon feature-start {{args}} <agent1> <agent2> [agent3...]

Mode is determined by arg count (0 / 1 / 2+ agents). The CLI transitions the feature from backlog to in-progress, refreshes the generated lifecycle view (stable layout), creates branch or worktree(s), and creates implementation log(s).

If the CLI reports errors while recording or publishing the workflow transition, resolve them before proceeding.

Step 2: Confirm setup and next steps

feature-start creates the workspace AND opens agent terminals automatically — there is no separate "open" step.

  • Drive mode (branch): you end up on the feature branch in your current terminal. Start implementation manually with /aigon:feature-do <ID>. Close with /aigon:feature-close <ID> when done.
  • Drive worktree: agent terminal is already running. Wait for submit, then /aigon:feature-close <ID> from the main repo.
  • Fleet: all agent terminals are running and implementing. Wait for all to submit, then /aigon:feature-eval <ID>.
  • Re-open a crashed session: /aigon:feature-open <ID> (or /aigon:feature-open <ID> <agent> for a specific Fleet agent).

Worktrees are created in ../<repo>-worktrees/ to keep them grouped with the project.

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.
