Claude-skill-registry klondike-agent-workflow

Manage multi-session AI agent workflows using klondike CLI. Use when working on klondike-managed projects (those with .klondike/ directory), when starting/ending coding sessions, tracking features through lifecycle, or maintaining coherence across context window resets. Triggers on session management, feature tracking, progress handoffs, and verification workflows.

Klondike Agent Workflow

Klondike bridges context windows for long-running agent sessions. Critical: Always use CLI commands—never directly read/edit .klondike/*.json files or agent-progress.md.

CRITICAL: Common Mistakes to Avoid

❌ NEVER do these:

  • klondike --help
    (wrong syntax - use
    klondike
    alone or
    klondike <command>
    without --help)
  • klondike feature --help
    (wrong - just run the command, it will show usage)
  • Read
    .klondike/features.json
    directly (use
    klondike feature list
    )
  • Edit
    agent-progress.md
    manually (auto-generated, changes are lost)
  • klondike feature start
    without feature ID (must be
    klondike feature start F001
    )
  • Feature IDs like
    f001
    or
    1
    (must be uppercase:
    F001
    )

✓ DO these:

  • klondike
    alone shows all commands
  • klondike feature list
    to see features
  • klondike feature show F001
    for details
  • klondike status
    to see project overview

Quick Decision Tree

Starting work?     → klondike status → klondike session start --focus "F001 - desc"
Working on feature → klondike feature start F001
Feature complete?  → Test E2E → klondike feature verify F001 --evidence "..."
Blocked?           → klondike feature block F001 --reason "..."
Ending session?    → klondike session end --summary "..." --next "..."

Session Lifecycle

1. Session Start (Always Do First!)

klondike status                                    # See project state
klondike validate                                  # Check artifact integrity
klondike session start --focus "F001 - Login UI"  # Begin session
klondike feature start F001                        # Mark feature in-progress

2. During Work

  • One feature at a time (tracked by
    feature start
    )
  • Commit after each meaningful change
  • Test incrementally, not at end
  • If blocked:
    klondike feature block F001 --reason "..."

3. Session End (Before Leaving!)

klondike feature verify F001 --evidence "test-results/F001.png"
klondike session end --summary "Done" --next "Implement logout"

Core Commands

ActionCommandNotes
Status
klondike status
Always start here
Add feature
klondike feature add "desc" --notes "hints"
--notes is critical
Start feature
klondike feature start F001
One at a time
List features
klondike feature list
Never read JSON directly
Show details
klondike feature show F001
View single feature
Verify
klondike feature verify F001 --evidence "proof"
E2E test first
Block
klondike feature block F001 --reason "why"
When stuck
Start session
klondike session start --focus "F001 - desc"
Begin work
End session
klondike session end --summary "..." --next "..."
Before leaving

Essential Rules

Always:

  • Start every session with
    klondike status
    to see project state
  • Use
    --notes
    when adding features (gives future agents critical context)
  • Capture evidence (screenshots, logs) before
    feature verify
  • Run pre-commit checks before every commit
  • End sessions with
    session end --summary ... --next ...

Never:

  • Use
    klondike --help
    or
    klondike feature --help
    (wrong syntax - see Common Mistakes)
  • Read or edit
    .klondike/*.json
    files directly (use CLI commands)
  • Edit
    agent-progress.md
    manually (auto-generated, edits are lost)
  • Verify features without E2E testing (unit tests aren't enough)
  • Commit code with failing tests, lint errors, or build failures

Pre-Commit Checks

Detect project type and run checks. Never commit if any fail.

Python (uv):

uv run ruff check src tests && uv run pytest

Node.js:
npm run lint && npm run build && CI=true npm test

Rust:
cargo clippy && cargo test

Go:
golangci-lint run && go test ./...
