- system prompt gains a Project workflow block when the repo tracks its own progress (TODO.md/ROADMAP.md/docs): read the task list first and keep it current, spec-first for non-trivial work, complete unit tests, verify before declaring done - TODO.md + ROADMAP.md loaded as 'Project tracker' instruction blocks, capped tighter than AGENTS.md so the agent sees the shape without drowning in it - one soft nudge per session when a turn writes files without touching the task list; suppressed when todo_write was called; never a gate - /workflow command + panel showing TODO/ROADMAP/docs presence, line/file counts, nudge state - config: workflow.enabled (default true), workflow.docsDir (default docs) - prompt-cache version key extended with wf: so toggling the workflow busts the cached system prompt - docs: docs/workflow.md, configuration table row, ROADMAP + TODO entries - tests: test/workflow.test.ts (9 tests) 830 tests pass, typecheck clean, build green, live headless demo verified

# Project-Driven Agent Workflow
|
|
|
|
Status: spec
|
|
Date: 2026-09-09
|
|
|
|
## Why
|
|
|
|
The user wants shiro-neko agents to produce the same quality as this repo
|
|
itself: docs-driven development, TODO.md + ROADMAP.md lifecycle, spec-first
|
|
plans, complete unit tests, verify-before-done. Today the agent only reads
|
|
AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md/.shiro.md; it has no visibility of the project's task
|
|
tracking, roadmap, or docs conventions, and nothing reminds it to keep them
|
|
current.
|
|
|
|
## Scope
|
|
|
|
- Prompt-level workflow policy (rendered in system prompt when enabled)
|
|
- Boot loading of TODO.md + ROADMAP.md (compact, capped)
|
|
- Lifecycle nudge: after a turn that wrote files without touching the task
|
|
list, emit a soft reminder
|
|
- `/workflow` command: show project workflow state
|
|
- Config: `workflow.enabled` (default true), `workflow.docsDir` (default `docs/`)
|
|
- Docs: docs/workflow.md + ROADMAP/TODO entries
|
|
- Tests: prompt rendering, boot load, lifecycle nudge, config merge, /workflow
|
|
|
|
## Out of scope (explicitly not doing)
|
|
|
|
- New tools (no permission surface, no storage)
|
|
- Blocking / hard gates (agent stays in control; nudges only)
|
|
- Auto-updating TODO.md (the agent does it via existing write tools)
|
|
- Skill/plugin autoloading (existing system stays)
|
|
|
|
## Files touched
|
|
|
|
- src/config.ts — `workflow?: { enabled?: boolean; docsDir?: string }` + merge arm
|
|
- src/prompt.ts — WorkflowPolicy block in renderPrompt; depends on config
|
|
- src/instructions.ts — load TODO.md + ROADMAP.md from git root; format compact
|
|
- src/session.ts — SessionOptions.workflow config; after-turn nudge when
|
|
fileChangeSeq bumped && no todo_write this turn
|
|
- src/commands.ts — `/workflow` command (status summary)
|
|
- src/cli.tsx — pass config; register /workflow
|
|
- src/ui/App.tsx + panel-bodies.ts — /workflow panel
|
|
- docs/workflow.md — new; ROADMAP.md, TODO.md updated
|
|
- test/workflow.test.ts — new
|
|
|
|
## Design
|
|
|
|
### Config (config.ts)
|
|
|
|
```ts
|
|
export type WorkflowConfig = {
|
|
enabled?: boolean; // default true
|
|
docsDir?: string; // default 'docs'
|
|
};
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Merged in config.merge (same pattern as maxSpendPerTurn).
|
|
|
|
### Prompt block (prompt.ts)
|
|
|
|
Rendered only when workflow.enabled !== false, and only when the project has
|
|
TODO.md/ROADMAP.md/docs/ (so a bare repo gets no noise). Wording:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Project workflow (this repo tracks its own progress). When the project has a
|
|
TODO.md, read it before starting work and keep it current as you go:
|
|
- mark done what you finished, and the sub-task you are on
|
|
- add tests alongside code; the project expects complete unit tests
|
|
- update ROADMAP.md when you ship a milestone
|
|
- for anything non-trivial, write a short plan (spec-first) before code
|
|
- verify with the project's check commands before declaring done
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Keyed in promptCache versions as `wf` so toggling the flag re-renders.
|
|
|
|
### Boot load (instructions.ts)
|
|
|
|
`loadInstructions` also collects `<gitroot>/TODO.md` and `<gitroot>/ROADMAP.md`
|
|
when present, capped (e.g. 6_000 chars each), rendered as:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
--- TODO.md (project task list) ---
|
|
<first N lines, preserving section headers>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Rendered AFTER instructions, BEFORE notebook/memory. So the agent always knows
|
|
what the project is tracking before it starts.
|
|
|
|
### Lifecycle nudge (session.ts)
|
|
|
|
After a turn's stream finishes (where fileChangeSeq is known): if
|
|
`workflow.enabled !== false` AND the turn wrote files (fileChangeSeq bumped)
|
|
AND the turn did NOT call todo_write AND the project has a TODO.md at the git
|
|
root AND this is not the 1st turn (avoid nudge at boot): emit one `info` line
|
|
via the normal notice mechanism:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
reminder: you modified files without updating the project task list (TODO.md).
|
|
Keep it current: mark what you did.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This is one soft line, not a stop; the run continues normally. Tracked as
|
|
`workflowNudged` so it fires at most once per run (and once per session).
|
|
|
|
### `/workflow` command
|
|
|
|
Status summary rendered in a panel:
|
|
- workflow.enabled from config
|
|
- TODO.md present? yes/no + line count
|
|
- ROADMAP.md present? yes/no + line count
|
|
- docsDir exists? yes/no
|
|
- docs/ file count
|
|
- tests: count of *.test.ts / *.test.tsx in tree (bounded)
|
|
- nudged count this session
|
|
|
|
### Tests (test/workflow.test.ts)
|
|
|
|
1. config merge: workflow.enabled + docsDir survive loadConfig merge
|
|
2. prompt: workflow policy rendered when enabled + TODO present; absent when
|
|
disabled or bare repo
|
|
3. instructions: TODO.md + ROADMAP.md loaded from git root, capped
|
|
4. lifecycle nudge: turn writes file, no todo_write -> info message once
|
|
5. no nudge when todo_write was called
|
|
6. /workflow command parses + panel renders
|
|
|
|
## Verification
|
|
|
|
- bun run typecheck
|
|
- bun test test/workflow.test.ts test/config.test.ts test/commands.test.ts
|
|
- full bun test (background)
|
|
- bun run build |
