majiayu000 Project Workflow Skill
7 integrated slash commands for complete project lifecycle automation: idea validation → planning → execution → session management → release.
Time savings: 35-55 minutes per project lifecycle
Installation
Marketplace: /plugin install project-workflow@claude-skills
Manual: Copy commands/*.md to ~/.claude/commands/
The 7 Commands
1. /explore-idea - Pre-Planning Exploration
Use when: Rough idea that needs tech stack validation, scope management, or research before planning.
Creates: PROJECT_BRIEF.md with validated decisions → hands off to /plan-project
Time savings: 10-15 min
2. /plan-project - Generate Project Planning Docs
Use when: Starting new project with clear requirements, or after /explore-idea.
Creates: IMPLEMENTATION_PHASES.md, SESSION.md, DATABASE_SCHEMA.md (if needed), API_ENDPOINTS.md (if needed), ARCHITECTURE.md
Invokes: project-planning skill
Time savings: 5-7 min
3. /plan-feature - Add Features to Existing Projects
Use when: Adding feature to existing project with SESSION.md + IMPLEMENTATION_PHASES.md.
Does: Generates new phases via project-planning skill, integrates into IMPLEMENTATION_PHASES.md with renumbering, updates SESSION.md.
Time savings: 7-10 min
4. /wrap-session - End-of-Session Checkpoint
Use when: Context full (>150k tokens), end of work session, or before task switch.
Does: Task agent analyzes session → updates SESSION.md (progress, Next Action, blockers) → git checkpoint commit → formatted handoff summary.
Time savings: 2-3 min
5. /continue-session - Start-of-Session Context Loading
Use when: Starting new session or after /wrap-session checkpoint.
Does: Explore agent loads SESSION.md + planning docs → shows git history + session summary (phase, progress, Next Action, blockers) → optionally opens file → asks permission to continue.
Time savings: 1-2 min
6. /workflow - Interactive Workflow Guide
Use when: First time user, unsure which command to use, or need quick reference.
Does: Shows all 7 commands → context-aware guidance with decision trees → offers to execute appropriate command.
7. /release - Pre-Release Safety Checks
Use when: Ready to push to public GitHub or create release.
8 Phases:
- Critical Safety (BLOCKERS): Secrets scan (gitleaks), personal artifacts check, git remote verification
- Documentation (REQUIRED): LICENSE, README (>100 words), CONTRIBUTING.md (>500 LOC), CODE_OF_CONDUCT (>1000 LOC)
- Configuration: .gitignore, package.json, git branch warning
- Quality (NON-BLOCKING): Build test, npm audit, large files (>1MB)
- Report: Blockers/warnings/recommendations + safe to release verdict 6-8. Auto-Fix & Publish: Fix issues, release prep commit, optional git tag + GitHub release
Time savings: 10-15 min
Workflow Examples
Full: /explore-idea → /plan-project → work → /wrap-session → /continue-session → /plan-feature (if needed) → repeat → /release
Quick (clear requirements): /plan-project → work → /wrap-session → /continue-session → /release
Helpers: /workflow (guidance), /plan-feature (add feature), /release (publish)
Integration
project-planning: Invoked by /plan-project and /plan-feature (generates IMPLEMENTATION_PHASES.md, DATABASE_SCHEMA.md, API_ENDPOINTS.md)
project-session-management: SESSION.md protocol for /wrap-session and /continue-session
Claude Code agents: /wrap-session (Task agent), /continue-session + /explore-idea (Explore agent)
Command Relationships
EXPLORATION PHASE
/explore-idea (optional)
↓
Creates PROJECT_BRIEF.md
↓
PLANNING PHASE
/plan-project (reads PROJECT_BRIEF.md if exists)
↓
Creates IMPLEMENTATION_PHASES.md + SESSION.md
↓
EXECUTION PHASE
Work on phases
↓
/wrap-session (when context full)
↓
Updates SESSION.md, git checkpoint
↓
/continue-session (new session)
↓
Loads SESSION.md, continues work
↓
/plan-feature (when need new features)
↓
Adds phases to IMPLEMENTATION_PHASES.md
↓
Continue wrap → resume cycle
↓
RELEASE PHASE
/release (when ready to publish)
↓
Safety checks → GitHub release
HELPER
/workflow (anytime)
↓

Time Savings Breakdown
| Command | Time Saved | Tasks Automated |
|---|---|---|
/explore-idea |
10-15 min | Research, validation, scope management, tech stack evaluation |
/plan-project |
5-7 min | Planning doc generation, git setup, phase structuring |
/plan-feature |
7-10 min | Feature planning, phase integration, doc updates |
/wrap-session |
2-3 min | SESSION.md updates, git checkpoint, handoff summary |
/continue-session |
1-2 min | Context loading, git history review, next action display |
/workflow |
Instant | Navigation, decision trees, command selection |
/release |
10-15 min | Secret scanning, doc validation, build testing, release creation |
Total per project lifecycle: 35-55 minutes
Prerequisites
All: Claude Code CLI, git repo (recommended)
/plan-feature: Existing SESSION.md + IMPLEMENTATION_PHASES.md
/wrap-session, /continue-session: SESSION.md (created by /plan-project)
/release: Git repo with commits, package.json (Node.js), remote URL (for publishing)
Troubleshooting
/plan-project "No project description": Use /explore-idea first or discuss project with Claude
/plan-feature "Prerequisites not met": Run /plan-project first (creates SESSION.md + IMPLEMENTATION_PHASES.md)
/wrap-session "No git repository": Run git init
/continue-session "SESSION.md not found": Run /plan-project
/release "Secrets detected": Add to .gitignore, remove from git history
