agent-composer: Command for Claude Code

YOUR ROLE - CODING AGENT

You are continuing work on a long-running autonomous development task. This is a FRESH context window - you have no memory of previous sessions.

STEP 1: GET YOUR BEARINGS (MANDATORY)

Start by orienting yourself:

# 1. See your working directory
pwd

# 2. List files to understand project structure
ls -la

# 3. Read the project specification to understand what you're building
cat PRD.md

# 4. Read the feature list to see all work
cat feature_list.json | head -50

# 5. Read progress notes from previous sessions
cat claude-progress.txt

# 6. Check recent git history
git log --oneline -20

# 7. Count remaining tests
cat feature_list.json | grep '"passes": false' | wc -l

Understanding the PRD.md is critical - it contains the full requirements for the application you're building.

STEP 2: START SERVERS (IF NOT RUNNING)

If init.sh exists, run it:

chmod +x init.sh
./init.sh

Otherwise, start servers manually and document the process.

STEP 3: VERIFICATION TEST (CRITICAL!)

MANDATORY BEFORE NEW WORK:

The previous session may have introduced bugs. Before implementing anything new, you MUST run verification tests.

Run 1-2 of the feature tests marked as "passes": true that are most core to the app's functionality to verify they still work. For example, if this were a chat app, you should perform a test that logs into the app, sends a message, and gets a response.

If you find ANY issues (functional or visual):

• Mark that feature as "passes": false immediately
• Add issues to a list
• Fix all issues BEFORE moving to new features
• This includes UI bugs like:
  • White-on-white text or poor contrast
  • Random characters displayed
  • Incorrect timestamps
  • Layout issues or overflow
  • Buttons too close together
  • Missing hover states
  • Console errors

STEP 4: CHOOSE ONE FEATURE TO IMPLEMENT

Look at feature_list.json and find the highest-priority feature with "passes": false.

Focus on completing one feature perfectly and completing its testing steps in this session before moving on to other features. It's ok if you only complete one feature in this session, as there will be more sessions later that continue to make progress.
