Trellis Continue

Resume work on the current task. Loads the workflow Phase Index, figures out which phase/step to pick up at, then pulls the step-level detail via get_context.py --mode phase. Use when coming back to an in-progress task and you need to know what to do next.

File contents

Continue Current Task

Resume work on the current task — pick up at the right phase/step in .trellis/workflow.md.

Step 1: Load Current Context

python3 ./.trellis/scripts/get_context.py

Confirms: current task, git state, recent commits.

Step 2: Load the Phase Index

python3 ./.trellis/scripts/get_context.py --mode phase

Shows the Phase Index (Plan / Execute / Finish) with routing + skill mapping.

Step 3: Decide Where You Are

get_context.py shows the active task's status field. Route by status + artifact presence:

status=planning + no prd.md → 1.1 (load trellis-brainstorm)
status=planning + prd.md exists + implement.jsonl not curated (only the seed _example row) → 1.3
status=planning + prd.md + curated implement.jsonl → 1.4 (run task.py start to enter Phase 2)
status=in_progress + implementation not started → 2.1
status=in_progress + implementation done, not yet checked → 2.2
status=in_progress + check passed → 3.1
status=completed (rare; usually archived immediately) → archive flow

Phase rules (full detail in .trellis/workflow.md):

Run steps in order within a phase — [required] steps must not be skipped
[once] steps are already done if the output exists (e.g., prd.md for 1.1; implement.jsonl with curated entries for 1.3) — skip them
You may go back to an earlier phase if discoveries require it

Step 4: Load the Specific Step

Once you know which step to resume at:

python3 ./.trellis/scripts/get_context.py --mode phase --step <X.X> --platform codex

Follow the loaded instructions. After each [required] step completes, move to the next.

Full workflow, skill routing table, and the DO-NOT-skip table live in .trellis/workflow.md. This command is only an entry point — the canonical guidance is there.
