Task Code

task-code workflow (v3)

Overview

2-phase sub-workflow mapping the user's CLAUDE.md Stage ③.b 子任务编码 discipline onto the harnessed runtime, fully harnessed.workflow.v3 schema (Phase v3.0-3.4 W0 T3.4.W0.7 — D-09 L0 Discipline Substrate + D-05 conditional invokes_tools + D-15 planning-with-files plugin).

| phase | id | upstream | model | capability / invokes_tools | | ----- | -- | -------- | ----- | -------------------------- | | 1 | 01-code | karpathy | sonnet | invokes_tools: [{if: phase.architecture_health_audit, tool: improve-codebase-architecture}, {if: subtask.bug_root_cause_unknown, tool: diagnose}] | | 2 | 02-progress | planning-with-files | haiku | {{ capabilities.planning-with-files.cmd }} / invokes: /plan / artifacts_expected: [progress.md] |

Per-phase config loads from workflows/task/code/workflow.yaml; engine.runRouting spawns each phase as a sub-agent via @anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk 0.3.142+.

Karpathy 4 心法 (L0 Discipline Substrate always-on)

Phase 01-code 的 upstream 是 karpathy — runtime engine 加载 workflows/disciplines/ karpathy.yaml discipline rules 应用 cross-cutting (Think Before Coding / Simplicity First / Surgical Changes / Goal-Driven Execution + ≤200L hard limit + no-feature-creep

• trust-internal-code + no-comments-default). 不 invoke slash cmd, 通过 hook 强制

behavioral rule per D-09 L0 Discipline Substrate.

mattpocock conditional route (D-05 invokes_tools)

Phase 01-code 按 phase fact context 条件性 fire 2 mattpocock 招式:

• improve-codebase-architecture — 周期架构健康审查 (when phase.architecture_health_audit == true)
• diagnose — bug 系统化排错 (when subtask.bug_root_cause_unknown == true)

2 触发条件 OR-chain, 任 1 fire 即 invoke 对应招式 — 不互斥 (sister CLAUDE.md "mattpocock 招式按需召唤" pattern, NOT exclusive). 无触发 = pure karpathy 心法 only.

CodeGraph navigation (opt-in, v4.17.0)

If the project has a .codegraph/ index (opt-in CodeGraph semantic index — sister capabilities.yaml codegraph entry), prefer the codegraph MCP tools (codegraph_explore) for symbol lookup / call paths / impact analysis instead of grep/glob/file-by-file Read crawling. No .codegraph/ → skip this (no install nag).

Phase 02-progress planning-with-files plugin 真接 (Q-AUDIT-5a LOCKED Option A)

02-progress invokes the Claude Code plugin slash command /plan to update progress.md in .planning/phases/-/ — 跟踪 subtask 完成 / blocked / next step per bundled "跨 session 恢复" 模式 + R20.6 Manus-style 持久化. Requires the planning-with-files Claude Code plugin (install via Claude Code plugin marketplace).

How to invoke

!harnessed checkpoint intent task-code

> The banner above (when present) means this invocation is REGISTERED with the engine (an intent marker) — not yet compliant: the steps below (prompt → spawn → checkpoint complete) resolve it, and a per-turn `` reminder persists until they run.

The numbered sequence below is the state machine — execute it with Bash. Do NOT improvise an equivalent flow from the Overview above: freelancing bypasses the engine (no ledger, no evidence guard). harnessed gives you the spawn-ready prompt; YOU spawn the subagent with a CC-native Task / Agent tool (keeps the session responsive + lets clarification round-trips reach the user).

Do NOT pipe to harnessed run task-code — that is the CI/headless path (in-process SDK spawn that blocks the session inside Claude Code).

1. Bash: harnessed prompt task-code --task "$ARGUMENTS" --json → parse {prompt, max_iterations, model}.
2. Spawn a CC-native subagent (Task / Agent tool) with that prompt + model, wrapped in the ralph-loop plugin: /ralph-loop "" --max-iterations --completion-promise "COMPLETE". If the plugin is absent, use the native goal gate instead (Claude Code 2.1.139+ / Codex): /goal "this subtask is delivered: the subagent's final output contains verbatim COMPLETE; or stop after turns" then spawn the subagent and let the goal evaluator drive re-spawns until it clears. If /goal is unavailable too, self-loop: spawn → check output for COMPLETE → re-spawn with prior output appended (up to max_iterations). Set the goal only at the leaf subtask level — /goal is single-slot per session and a nested goal overwrites the outer one.
3. If the output contains STATUS: NEEDS_CLARIFICATION + a question list: STOP, relay them verbatim via AskUserQuestion, append the answers to the spec, then re-spawn the same sub.
4. On COMPLETE: Bash harnessed checkpoint complete task-code --summary "". The evidence guard runs here (fail-CLOSED): if a declared artifacts_expected file is missing it exits non-zero — re-spawn to produce it before treating the sub as done.
