Run a Phase Gate

Run the named gate validator against a feature's phase artefacts.

Arguments

• <phase> — one of requirements, design, test, code
• <feature-id> — short slug for the feature
• [code-file-glob] — only required when <phase> is code; e.g., src/**/*.py

Steps

PHASE="$1"
FEATURE_ID="$2"
CODE_GLOB="${3:-}"

if [ -z "$PHASE" ] || [ -z "$FEATURE_ID" ]; then
    echo "Usage: phase-gate <phase> <feature-id> [code-file-glob]" >&2
    exit 1
fi

case "$PHASE" in
    requirements|design|test|code) ;;
    *)
        echo "phase must be one of: requirements, design, test, code" >&2
        exit 1
        ;;
esac

FEATURE_DIR="docs/specs/$FEATURE_ID"

if [ "$PHASE" = "code" ] && [ -z "$CODE_GLOB" ]; then
    echo "code phase requires a code-file-glob (e.g., 'src/**/*.py')" >&2
    exit 1
fi

Done

Report:

• Gate name and feature-id
• PASS or FAIL
• For FAIL: each broken reference / missing artefact

If FAIL, the user must fix the cited issues before commit/push. The same gates run at pre-push validation.

Model selection

This skill runs deterministic Python validators. Smaller models are sufficient.
