🌟 [Breaking change]: Unified CI/CD Workflow Configuration #201
Description
Primary User Story
As a developer using the unified workflow system, when I execute the /implement command, I want to see tasks in the pull request description being checked off progressively as the AI agent completes each step. At the end of implementation, I want the PR description to be automatically replaced with clean release notes suitable for publishing in GitHub Releases, so that the PR serves as both a tracking tool during development and a publication-ready release note afterward.
Acceptance Scenarios
- Given a PR exists with a task checklist in its description, When the AI agent completes a task during
/implement, Then the corresponding checkbox in the PR description is marked as complete (ticked) - Given multiple tasks are being executed sequentially, When each task completes, Then only that specific task's checkbox is updated, preserving the state of other tasks
- Given the
/implementphase has completed all tasks, When the final task finishes, Then the entire PR description is replaced with the release notes prepared during implementation - Given the PR description contains release notes, When the PR is merged to main, Then the release notes can be directly used for GitHub Release publication without manual editing
Edge Cases
- What happens when a task fails midway through implementation? The checkbox should remain unchecked and error details should be preserved
- How does the system handle network failures during PR description updates? Updates should be retried with exponential backoff
- What if the PR description has been manually edited between task completions? The system should preserve manual edits outside the task checklist area
- What happens if there are no tasks in the PR description? The final replacement should still occur, replacing any content with release notes
Requirements (mandatory)
Functional Requirements
| ID | Requirement |
|---|---|
| FR-001 | System MUST update PR description checkboxes incrementally as tasks are completed during /implement execution |
| FR-002 | System MUST preserve the order and structure of tasks in the PR description while updating checkboxes |
| FR-003 | System MUST identify and update only the specific task that has been completed, leaving other tasks unchanged |
| FR-004 | System MUST replace the entire PR description with release notes upon completion of all /implement tasks |
| FR-005 | System MUST format release notes according to GitHub Release standards (changelog format with appropriate headers) |
| FR-006 | System MUST preserve task completion history until the final replacement occurs |
| FR-007 | System MUST handle PR description updates for both local repositories and fork contributions |
| FR-008 | System MUST validate that the PR description was successfully updated after each task completion |
| FR-009 | System MUST include error details in the PR description if a task fails during implementation |
| FR-010 | System MUST generate release notes that include: change type, summary, detailed changes, and breaking changes (if any) |
Non-Functional Requirements
| ID | Requirement |
|---|---|
| NFR-001 | PR description updates MUST complete within 5 seconds under normal network conditions |
| NFR-002 | System MUST retry failed PR description updates up to 3 times with exponential backoff (1s, 2s, 4s) |
| NFR-003 | System MUST maintain idempotency for task checkbox updates (safe to retry without duplicate marks) |
| NFR-004 | Release notes generation MUST be deterministic (same inputs produce same output) |
| NFR-005 | System MUST log all PR description update attempts for audit purposes |
Quality Attributes Addressed
| Attribute | Target Metric |
|---|---|
| Reliability | 99.9% success rate for PR description updates |
| Traceability | 100% of task completions reflected in PR description within 10 seconds |
| Usability | Release notes require zero manual editing before GitHub Release publication |
| Maintainability | Clear separation between task tracking logic and release note generation logic |
Key Entities (include if feature involves data)
| Entity | Description |
|---|---|
| Task Checklist | A structured list of tasks in the PR description, each with a checkbox (checked or unchecked) and description |
| Task Item | An individual task within the checklist, consisting of checkbox state, task description, and optional subtasks |
| Release Notes | Structured documentation of changes, including type of change (fix/feature/breaking), summary, detailed changes, and migration notes |
| PR Description | The body text of a pull request, which transitions from containing a task checklist during implementation to containing release notes after completion |
| Task Completion Event | A signal indicating a specific task has been completed, triggering a PR description update |
