  • Unsure what to work on next
  • Checking progress

CLI Commands

Get Next Task

bash
1# What should I work on?
2venv/bin/python SCRIPTS/timeline_cli.py next
3
4# Next task in week 1
5venv/bin/python SCRIPTS/timeline_cli.py next --week 1
6
7# Next task in test section
8venv/bin/python SCRIPTS/timeline_cli.py next --section test
9
10# JSON output
11venv/bin/python SCRIPTS/timeline_cli.py next --json

Mark Complete

1# Mark done + automatic git commit
2venv/bin/python SCRIPTS/timeline_cli.py complete w1-test-003
3
4# Mark done without commit
5venv/bin/python SCRIPTS/timeline_cli.py complete w1-test-003 --no-commit
6

7# Completed tasks in test section
8venv/bin/python SCRIPTS/timeline_cli.py find --status completed --section test
9
10# First 5 tasks
11venv/bin/python SCRIPTS/timeline_cli.py find --limit 5

Workflow

  1. Start Session: timeline next → Get next pending task
  2. Do Work: Implement/test/document
  3. Complete: timeline complete TASK_ID → Updates JSON + git commit
  4. Push: git push (if configured)

Core Principles

Priority 1: Complete the Framework

Establish baseline → Research dependencies → Complete framework logic

Focus on building complete system first:

  • ✅ All commands exist and work
  • ✅ All wrappers exist and work
  • ✅ All skills exist
  • ✅ State machine works
  • ✅ Integration works end-to-end

DO NOT get distracted by:

  • Testing multiple hypotheses (1-2 validates system)
  • Optimizing performance (works first, fast second)
  • Adding features not in checklist
  • Extensive documentation (minimal docs, focus on code)

Priority 2: Validate the Framework

Validate logic paths → Test robustness → Calibrate thresholds

Only after Priority 1 complete:

  • Test decision framework with diverse scenarios
  • Measure false positive/negative rates
  • Calibrate thresholds
  • Validate reliability

Robustness is meaningless without completeness.

Authoritative Documentation (Source of Truth)

When confused about workflow, phases, or decisions:

  • Read: PROJECT_DOCUMENTATION/autonomous_decision_framework.md
  • Contains: 5-phase workflow, decision thresholds, routing logic

When confused about architecture or how components fit:

  • Read: PREVIOUS_WORK/PROJECT_DOCUMENTATION/autonomous_workflow_architecture.md
  • Contains: Complete system architecture, state machine, integration patterns

Never guess. Always research first. Use authoritative docs as source of truth.

CLI Help

Use --help for command details:

bash
1venv/bin/python SCRIPTS/timeline_cli.py --help
2venv/bin/python SCRIPTS/timeline_cli.py next --help
3venv/bin/python SCRIPTS/timeline_cli.py complete --help

Do not read timeline_cli.py source code. Use --help for usage.

Context Savings: 60 lines (vs 631 lines in old skill) = 90% reduction

Progressive Disclosure: Load only what you need (next task, not entire timeline)

Trifecta: CLI works for humans, teams, AND agents
