Treat package work as a registration change, not a directory copy.
Workflow
- Inspect the closest package in the same family. Classify publication status, runtime, test environment, platform support, barrels, and dependency shape. Justify each proposed file by precedent or an explicit repository need. Continue when every proposed file is justified.
- Create or move only required source, test, TypeScript, and manifest files. When manifest dependencies change, read dependencies.md and classify every entry by role. Continue when pnpm discovers the intended name and manifests reference no absent file.
- Read registration.md. Classify every registration surface as applicable or not applicable and update every applicable surface. Continue when every surface is classified and old references are explained.
- For a published package, read publishing.md and verify its development and packed surfaces.
- Run codegen when the package owns generated barrels, then inspect generated sections rather than editing them manually. Continue when generated sections match source modules without manual edits.
- Run focused package tests and scripts plus applicable root checks. Include public API type tests when applicable. For published packages, build and dry pack the package as described in publishing.md. Continue when focused and root checks pass and the packed surface is intended.
- Apply root changeset, generated-file, documentation, and workflow routing.
The task is complete when package discovery, registration, generated output, validation, packed output, and changeset routing are all verified or reported as not applicable.
