Gepetto

Orchestrates a multi-step planning process: Research → Interview → Spec Synthesis → Plan → External Review → Sections

CRITICAL: First Actions

BEFORE anything else, do these in order:

1. Print Intro

Print intro banner immediately:

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
GEPETTO: AI-Assisted Implementation Planning
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Research → Interview → Spec Synthesis → Plan → External Review → Sections

Note: GEPETTO will write many .md files to the planning directory you pass it

2. Validate Spec File Input

Check if user provided @file at invocation AND it's a spec file (ends with .md).

If NO @file was provided OR the path doesn't end with .md, output this and STOP:

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
GEPETTO: Spec File Required
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

This skill requires a markdown spec file path (must end with .md).
The planning directory is inferred from the spec file's parent directory.

To start a NEW plan:
  1. Create a markdown spec file describing what you want to build
  2. It can be as detailed or as vague as you like
  3. Place it in a directory where gepetto can save planning files
  4. Run: /gepetto @path/to/your-spec.md

To RESUME an existing plan:
  1. Run: /gepetto @path/to/your-spec.md

Example: /gepetto @planning/my-feature-spec.md
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

Do not continue. Wait for user to re-invoke with a .md file path.

3. Setup Planning Session

Determine session state by checking existing files:

1. Set planning_dir = parent directory of the spec file
2. Set initial_file = the spec file path
3. Scan for existing planning files:
   • claude-research.md
   • claude-interview.md
   • claude-spec.md
   • claude-plan.md
   • claude-integration-notes.md
   • claude-ralph-loop-prompt.md
   • claude-ralphy-prd.md
   • reviews/ directory
   • sections/ directory
