Scaffold Lifecycle Backlog Result
Scaffold Lifecycle Backlog Result
Current placement (V4.3): This historical V4.4 creation record is superseded for iteration planning by the accepted shared-prompt baseline delivery decision. The complete consumer
.agents/AGENTS.mdis scaffold-owned and baseline-delivered. The current coordination record is the immutable V4.3 iteration coordination note. Provider reconciliation for the enriched existing graph is maintained by the parent delivery workflow; this historical result remains unchanged below.
Requirements Phase completed. The user approved the retained placement proposal with “approved” on 2026-09-05. The entire approved provider delta is applied and verified. Product implementation and release have not started.

Provider result
Created 1 Initiative issue, 1 child Epic, 5 Stories and 9 Tasks. All new issues are in Backlog. Every Story and Task belongs to the new V4.4 milestone. Existing tickets, milestones, views, priorities and owners received no mutation.
| Provider item | Kind | Result | Parent | Blocked by |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| IP-456 | initiative | Reliable Repository Context | CLI | None |
| IP-457 | epic | Scaffold, Update and Check Lifecycle | IP-456 | None |
| IP-458 | story | Complete routine quality and hook setup in the CLI | IP-457 | None |
| IP-459 | story | Check editable context against its actual obligations | IP-457 | None |
| IP-460 | story | Recover interrupted adoption without false completion | IP-457 | None |
| IP-461 | story | Refresh only affected scoped guidance and agents | IP-457 | None |
| IP-462 | story | Validate the planned workspace installation faithfully | IP-457 | None |
| IP-463 | task | Apply explicit artifact obligations across the shared lifecycle | IP-459 | None |
| IP-464 | task | Report independent health findings and exact unknowns | IP-459 | IP-463 |
| IP-465 | task | Resolve supported quality defaults with repository overrides | IP-458 | IP-463 |
| IP-466 | task | Resume coupled output and receipt publication truthfully | IP-460 | IP-463 |
| IP-467 | task | Reconcile portable state and legacy artifacts without data loss | IP-460 | IP-463, IP-466 |
| IP-468 | task | Invalidate scoped work through contract and scope identity | IP-461 | IP-463 |
| IP-469 | task | Complete bounded authoring through deterministic projection and proof | IP-461 | IP-466, IP-468 |
| IP-470 | task | Preserve planned workspace topology in candidate validation | IP-462 | None |
| IP-471 | task | Install and verify the planned quality and Commit Gate setup | IP-458 | IP-465, IP-466, IP-470 |
Verification and recovery point
Fresh complete project discovery found no existing same-identity item. Each new issue was read back immediately after creation and all 16 were read back again after the complete graph existed. Comparisons verified title, full specification authority/body, Kind and Area labels, project/team, parent, exact milestone, Backlog status, native blockers and inverse blocking relations. Body comparison normalized only Linear's Markdown bullet/link serialization.
The provider-neutral validator passed after replacing proposed identities with actual provider IDs: five Stories, nine Tasks, eleven edges. No missing parent, milestone mismatch, future-iteration edge or cycle remains. All eight specification outcomes and 36 acceptance criteria retain delivery coverage.
- Exact mutation envelope.
- Provider readback receipt.
- Resolved provider Task graph.
- Residual provider delta: none.
- Recovery point: complete verified graph; future changes require fresh readback and identity reconciliation rather than replaying create operations.
Delivery handoff
IP-457
is the delivery Epic. create-plan must preserve all nine provider Task identities
and native blocker edges. Initially unblocked Tasks are IP-463 (artifact
obligations) and IP-470 (candidate topology); planning determines concrete write
scopes, workers and validation details.
Preserve the specification's main-based branch intent, source-first reusable
skill policy, authored-content protection, issue #181 candidate safety and issue
#194 proof validation. The original #197 failure's exact cause remains a delivery
verification target. The current scaffold check still cannot assess the repository
because apps/api has an incomplete Quality Command Contract; no scaffold drift
was established by that failure.
Requirements readiness and provider readiness are complete. This record is not implementation, runtime acceptance, merge or release evidence.
