Ac Git Branch

Create Branch with Spec Directory

Create a new git branch and its corresponding spec directory.

Pre-Flight Checks

1. Verify clean git state:

   • If dirty: STOP and list uncommitted changes

2. Validate branch name:

   • Must be provided as argument
   • If empty: STOP with "Branch name required"

Execution

1. Create and checkout branch:

   git checkout -b $ARGUMENTS
   

2. Resolve and create spec directory:

   # Source the bundled spec resolver from this pi package
   source "../../assets/scripts/spec-resolver.sh"
   
   # Resolve spec path (handles external vs local)
   RELATIVE_PATH="$(date +%Y)/$(date +%m)/$ARGUMENTS/000-backlog.md"
   SPEC_FILE=$(resolve_spec_path "$RELATIVE_PATH")
   SPEC_DIR="${SPEC_FILE%/*}"  # Pure bash dirname equivalent
   
   # Create backlog file
   touch "$SPEC_FILE"
   

   • Path: Auto-resolved based on .env configuration
     • External: .specs/specs/<YYYY>/<MM>/<branch-name>/
     • Local: specs/<YYYY>/<MM>/<branch-name>/
   • Creates 000-backlog.md (empty file)

3. Commit spec directory:

   # Extract NNN and title for commit_spec_changes
   # For backlog, use "000" and "backlog"
   commit_spec_changes "$SPEC_FILE" "CREATE" "000" "backlog"
   

   • CRITICAL: Must commit BEFORE creating worktree, otherwise spec files are lost

4. Confirm:

   - Branch: $ARGUMENTS
   - Spec dir: <resolved-path>
   - Backlog: 000-backlog.md (committed)
