sails-feature-workflow
Use when a builder is changing behavior inside an existing standard Gear/Vara Sails app and needs the correct stage-by-stage workflow. Do not use for greenfield scaffolding, Vara.eth or ethexe paths, or non-Sails repositories.
What this skill does
# Sails Feature Workflow ## Goal Keep feature work inside an existing Sails repo on an explicit sequence instead of skipping straight to code edits or bypassing the typed client path. If the request targets a released contract, a new deployed contract version, or V1->V2 evolution, route through `../sails-program-evolution/SKILL.md` before normal implementation work continues. ## Required Sequence 1. Clarify the feature in `docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-<topic>-spec.md` with `idea-to-spec` and `../../assets/spec-template.md`. 2. Plan architecture or public interface in `...-architecture.md` with `../sails-architecture/SKILL.md` and `../../assets/architecture-template.md`. 3. If the work targets a released contract, introduces a new deployed version, requires cutover planning, or prepares V1->V2 migration, review `../sails-program-evolution/SKILL.md` before task breakdown and coding. 4. If the feature needs API selection across `gstd`, review `../gear-gstd-api-map/SKILL.md` before coding. 5. If the feature changes async behavior, replies, delays, reservations, or waitlist semantics, review `../gear-message-execution/SKILL.md` before coding. 6. Break the work into tasks in `...-tasks.md` with `task-decomposer` and `../../assets/task-plan-template.md`. 7. If the feature introduces a fungible token, mint/burn roles, token-backed accounting, or native-value exchange, review `../awesome-sails-vft/SKILL.md` before coding. 8. Implement the Rust changes through `sails-rust-implementer`. 9. If the public interface changed, refresh the `.idl` and regenerate the typed client through the repo's standard `build.rs` path first. For dedicated Rust client crates, prefer the `sails-rs` build-helper path before a manual generator pipeline. 10. Run `gtest` through `../sails-gtest/SKILL.md`. 11. Run smoke validation only after green `gtest`, using `../sails-local-smoke/SKILL.md`. ## Sponsored UX Cases - If the feature includes gasless or signless UX, see `../../references/voucher-and-signless-flows.md` for the canonical builder recipes, lifecycle, and failure modes. Define the voucher or session flow in the spec and architecture. ## References - `../../references/vara-domain-overview.md` - `../../references/sails-cheatsheet.md` - `../../references/gtest-cheatsheet.md` - `../../references/gear-execution-model.md` - `../../references/gear-messaging-and-replies.md` - `../../references/sails-gtest-and-local-validation.md` - `../../references/contract-interface-evolution.md` - `../../references/voucher-and-signless-flows.md` - `../../references/sails-idl-v2-syntax.md` — IDL v2 annotations for `.idl` files - `../../references/sails-header-wire-format.md` — interface ID stability for change classification ## Guardrails - Do not skip the document chain for “small” features. - Do not bypass the generated client path with raw payload encoders, hand-built SCALE payloads, or EVM-style bindings. - Do not claim completion before `gtest` is green and documented. - Do not treat local-node smoke as a substitute for `gtest`. - Do not treat released-contract evolution, cutover, or V1->V2 migration as ordinary feature work without routing through the program-evolution flow.

IncludedDraws the 12 Houses of the Zodiac Tarot spread to inject entropy into planning when prompts are vague, ambiguous, or casually delegated. Interprets the spread to guide next steps. Use when the user says 'let fate decide', 'YOLO', 'whatever', 'idk', or other nonchalant phrases, makes Yu-Gi-Oh references, or when you are about to arbitrarily pick between multiple reasonable approaches. Prefer over ask-questions-if-underspecified when the user's tone is casual or playful rather than precision-seeking.
