description	Archive a completed milestone, preparing for the next version, marking a milestone complete, shipping a version, or wrapping up milestone work. Triggers include "complete milestone", "finish milestone", "archive milestone", "ship version", "mark milestone done", "milestone complete", "release version", "create release", and "ship milestone".
metadata	{"version":"0.1.0"}

Mark milestone {{version}} complete, archive to milestones/, and update ROADMAP.md and REQUIREMENTS.md.

Purpose: Create historical record of shipped version, archive milestone artifacts (roadmap + requirements), and prepare for next milestone. Output: Milestone archived (roadmap + requirements), PROJECT.md evolved, git tagged.

<execution_context> Load these files NOW (before proceeding):

• @./references/milestone-complete.md (main workflow)
• @./references/milestone-archive-template.md (archive template)
• @./references/version-detector.md (version detection functions)
• @./references/changelog-generator.md (changelog generation functions) </execution_context>

**Project files:** - `.planning/ROADMAP.md` - `.planning/REQUIREMENTS.md` - `.planning/STATE.md` - `.planning/PROJECT.md`

User input:

• Version: {{version}} (e.g., "1.0", "1.1", "2.0")

Follow milestone-complete.md workflow:

0. CRITICAL: Branch setup (if pr_workflow=true)

   Check pr_workflow config FIRST before any other work:

   PR_WORKFLOW=$(node scripts/kata-lib.cjs read-config "pr_workflow" "false")
   CURRENT_BRANCH=$(git branch --show-current)
   WORKTREE_ENABLED=$(node scripts/kata-lib.cjs read-config "worktree.enabled" "false")
   

   If PR_WORKFLOW=true AND on main:

   You MUST create a release branch BEFORE proceeding. All milestone completion work goes on that branch.

   # Determine version from user input or detect from project files
   # (version-detector.md handles detection across project types)
   VERSION="X.Y.Z"  # Set from user input or detection
   

   Release branches always use the main/ working directory. Do NOT create a separate worktree for release work. Milestone completion is sequential admin work with no parallelism — a separate worktree adds complexity with no benefit.

   Create the release branch in the current working directory. In bare repo layout, CWD is already main/. In normal repos, CWD is the project root. Both cases use the same command:

   RELEASE_BRANCH="release/v$VERSION"
   git checkout -b "$RELEASE_BRANCH"
   

   Display:

   ⚠ pr_workflow is enabled — creating release branch.
   
   Branch: $RELEASE_BRANCH
   
   All milestone completion commits will go to this branch.
   After completion, a PR will be created to merge to main.
   

   If PR_WORKFLOW=false OR already on a non-main branch:

   Proceed with current branch (commits go to main or current branch).

   GATE: Do NOT proceed until branch is correct:

   • If pr_workflow=true, you must be on release/vX.Y.Z branch
   • If pr_workflow=false, main branch is OK

   All subsequent steps work in the current working directory. Do NOT cd to any other directory.

0.1. Pre-flight: Check roadmap format (auto-migration)

Read workflow-specific overrides for milestone completion. Also check and auto-migrate roadmap format if needed:

if [ -f .planning/ROADMAP.md ]; then
  node scripts/kata-lib.cjs check-roadmap 2>/dev/null
  FORMAT_EXIT=$?
  
  if [ $FORMAT_EXIT -eq 1 ]; then
    echo "Old roadmap format detected. Running auto-migration..."
  fi
fi

If exit code 1 (old format):

Invoke kata-doctor in auto mode:

Skill("kata-doctor", "--auto")

Continue after migration completes.

If exit code 0 or 2: Continue silently.

# Validate config and template overrides
node scripts/kata-lib.cjs check-config 2>/dev/null || true
node scripts/kata-lib.cjs check-template-drift 2>/dev/null || true

0.2. Read workflow config:

Read workflow-specific overrides for milestone completion:

VERSION_FILES_JSON=$(node scripts/kata-lib.cjs read-pref "workflows.complete-milestone.version_files" "[]")
PRE_RELEASE_CMDS_JSON=$(node scripts/kata-lib.cjs read-pref "workflows.complete-milestone.pre_release_commands" "[]")

• version_files: overrides version-detector.md auto-detection when non-empty
• pre_release_commands: run after version bump, before archive (failures blocking)

Store for use in release workflow steps. See milestone-complete.md read_workflow_config step.

0.2. Generate release artifacts:

Proactively generate changelog and version bump. Use the functions defined in version-detector.md and changelog-generator.md. Run these steps using the exact function definitions from those references:

# 1. Get current version (version-detector.md: get_current_version)
CURRENT_VERSION=$(node -p "require('./package.json').version" 2>/dev/null || git describe --tags --abbrev=0 2>/dev/null | sed 's/^v//' || echo "0.0.0")

# 2. Get commits since last tag (version-detector.md: commit_parsing)
LAST_TAG=$(git describe --tags --abbrev=0 2>/dev/null || echo "")
if [ -n "$LAST_TAG" ]; then
  COMMITS=$(git log --oneline --format="%s" "$LAST_TAG"..HEAD)
else
  COMMITS=$(git log --oneline --format="%s")
fi

# 3. Categorize commits
BREAKING=$(echo "$COMMITS" | grep -E "^[a-z]+(\(.+\))?!:|BREAKING CHANGE:" || true)
FEATURES=$(echo "$COMMITS" | grep -E "^feat(\(.+\))?:" || true)
FIXES=$(echo "$COMMITS" | grep -E "^fix(\(.+\))?:" || true)

# 4. Determine bump type
if [ -n "$BREAKING" ]; then BUMP_TYPE="major"
elif [ -n "$FEATURES" ]; then BUMP_TYPE="minor"
elif [ -n "$FIXES" ]; then BUMP_TYPE="patch"
else BUMP_TYPE="none"
fi

echo "CURRENT=$CURRENT_VERSION BUMP=$BUMP_TYPE"
echo "FEATURES: $FEATURES"
echo "FIXES: $FIXES"

Calculate next version using calculate_next_version from version-detector.md. Generate changelog entry using changelog-generator.md format. Update version in project files using update_versions from version-detector.md (if version changed).

Present all proposed changes for review:

## Release Preview

**Current version:** $CURRENT_VERSION
**Bump type:** $BUMP_TYPE
**Next version:** $NEXT_VERSION

**Changelog entry:**
## [$NEXT_VERSION] - $DATE

### Added
[feat commits formatted]

### Fixed
[fix commits formatted]

### Changed

**Files updated:**
[list each version file detected and updated]
- CHANGELOG.md → new entry prepended

Use AskUserQuestion:

• header: "Release Changes"
• question: "Review the release changes above. Approve?"
• options:
  • "Approve" — Keep changes and proceed to verify readiness
  • "Edit changelog first" — Pause for user edits, then confirm
  • "Revert and skip release" — Undo release file changes, proceed to verify readiness without release artifacts

1. Check for audit:

   • Look for .planning/v{{version}}-MILESTONE-AUDIT.md
   • If missing or stale: recommend /kata-audit-milestone first
   • If audit status is gaps_found: recommend /kata-plan-milestone-gaps first
   • If audit status is passed: proceed to step 1

   ## Pre-flight Check
   
   {If no v{{version}}-MILESTONE-AUDIT.md:}
   ⚠ No milestone audit found. Run `/kata-audit-milestone` first to verify
   requirements coverage, cross-phase integration, and E2E flows.
   
   {If audit has gaps:}
   ⚠ Milestone audit found gaps. Run `/kata-plan-milestone-gaps` to create
   phases that close the gaps, or proceed anyway to accept as tech debt.
   
   {If audit passed:}
   ✓ Milestone audit passed. Proceeding with completion.
   

2. Verify readiness:

   • Check all phases in milestone have completed plans (SUMMARY.md exists)
   • Present milestone scope and stats
   • Wait for confirmation

3. Gather stats:

   • Count phases, plans, tasks
   • Calculate git range, file changes, LOC
   • Extract timeline from git log
   • Present summary, confirm

4. Extract accomplishments:

   • Read all phase SUMMARY.md files in milestone range
   • Extract 4-6 key accomplishments
   • Present for approval

5. Archive milestone:

   • Create .planning/milestones/v{{version}}-ROADMAP.md
   • Extract full phase details from ROADMAP.md
   • Fill milestone-archive.md template
   • Update ROADMAP.md to one-line summary with link

6. Archive requirements:

   • Create .planning/milestones/v{{version}}-REQUIREMENTS.md
   • Mark all v1 requirements as complete (checkboxes checked)
   • Note requirement outcomes (validated, adjusted, dropped)
   • Delete .planning/REQUIREMENTS.md (fresh one created for next milestone)

7. Update PROJECT.md:

   • Add "Current State" section with shipped version
   • Add "Next Milestone Goals" section
   • Archive previous content in <details> (if v1.1+)

6.5. Review Documentation (Non-blocking):

Before committing, offer final README review:

Use AskUserQuestion:

• header: "Final README Review"
• question: "Revise README before completing milestone v{{version}}?"
• options:
  • "Yes, draft an update for my review" — Revise README and present to the user for approval
  • "No, I'll make the edits myself" — Pause for user review, wait for "continue"
  • "Skip for now" — Proceed directly to commit

If "Yes, I'll review now":

Review README.md for the complete v{{version}} milestone.
Ensure all shipped features are documented.
Say "continue" when ready to proceed.

If "Show README": Display README.md, then use AskUserQuestion:

• header: "README Accuracy"
• question: "Does this look accurate for v{{version}}?"
• options:
  • "Yes, looks good" — Proceed to Step 7
  • "Needs updates" — Pause for user edits, wait for "continue"

If "Skip" or review complete: Proceed to Step 7.

Non-blocking: milestone completion continues regardless of choice.

6.7. Close GitHub Milestone:

If github.enabled, close the GitHub Milestone for this version. See milestone-complete.md close_github_milestone step for details.

7. Commit and finalize:

   • Stage: MILESTONES.md, PROJECT.md, ROADMAP.md, STATE.md, archive files
   • Commit: chore: complete v{{version}} milestone

   PR workflow handling (branch was created in step 0):

   PR_WORKFLOW=$(node scripts/kata-lib.cjs read-config "pr_workflow" "false")
   CURRENT_BRANCH=$(git branch --show-current)
   

   If PR_WORKFLOW=true (on release/vX.Y.Z branch):

   Push branch and create PR:

   # Push branch (use --head for bare repo layout where gh can't auto-detect)
   git push -u origin "$CURRENT_BRANCH"
   
   # Collect all phase issues for this milestone
   GITHUB_ENABLED=$(node scripts/kata-lib.cjs read-config "github.enabled" "false")
   ISSUE_MODE=$(node scripts/kata-lib.cjs read-config "github.issue_mode" "never")
   
   CLOSES_LINES=""
   if [ "$GITHUB_ENABLED" = "true" ] && [ "$ISSUE_MODE" != "never" ]; then
     # Get all phase issue numbers for this milestone
     # --state all includes already-closed issues (GitHub ignores redundant Closes #X,
     # but including them ensures PR body reflects all related work)
     # gh issue list --milestone only searches open milestones; use API to include closed
     REPO_SLUG=$(gh repo view --json nameWithOwner --jq '.nameWithOwner' 2>/dev/null)
     MS_NUM=$(gh api "repos/${REPO_SLUG}/milestones?state=all" --jq ".[] | select(.title==\"v{{version}}\") | .number" 2>/dev/null)
     PHASE_ISSUES=""
     if [ -n "$MS_NUM" ]; then
       PHASE_ISSUES=$(gh api "repos/${REPO_SLUG}/issues?milestone=${MS_NUM}&state=all&labels=phase&per_page=100" \
         --jq '.[].number' 2>/dev/null)
     fi
   
     if [ -z "$PHASE_ISSUES" ]; then
       echo "Note: No phase issues found for milestone v{{version}}. This is expected for milestones without GitHub issues."
     fi
   
     # Build multi-line closes section
     for num in ${PHASE_ISSUES}; do
       CLOSES_LINES="${CLOSES_LINES}Closes #${num}
   "
     done
   fi
   
   # Create PR (--head required for bare repo worktree layout)
   gh pr create \
     --head "$CURRENT_BRANCH" \
     --base main \
     --title "v{{version}}: [Milestone Name]" \
     --body "$(cat <<EOF
   ## Summary

   ## Release Files
   
   [list version files that were updated]
   - `CHANGELOG.md` — v{{version}} entry added
   
   ## After Merge
   
   Create GitHub Release with tag `v{{version}}`.
   
   ## Closes
   
   ${CLOSES_LINES}
   EOF
   )"
   

   Display:

   ✓ PR created: [PR URL]
   
   After merge:
   → Create GitHub Release with tag v{{version}}
   

   Offer to merge PR:

   Use AskUserQuestion:

   • header: "Merge Release PR"
   • question: "PR is ready. Merge now?"
   • options:
     • "Yes, merge now" — merge and return to main
     • "No, I'll merge later" — leave PR open

   If "Yes, merge now":

   gh pr merge "$PR_NUMBER" --merge
   

   Then update local state:

   if [ "$WORKTREE_ENABLED" = "true" ]; then
     # Bare repo layout: update main/ worktree, reset workspace/ to workspace-base
     git -C main pull
     bash "scripts/manage-worktree.sh" cleanup-phase workspace "$PHASE_BRANCH"
   else
     git checkout main
     git pull
   fi
   

   If PR_WORKFLOW=false (on main):

   Create tag locally:

   • Tag: git tag -a v{{version}} -m "[milestone summary]"
   • Ask about pushing tag

8. Post-release verification:

   After the release PR is merged (or tag is pushed), offer active verification tasks.

   Task menu loop: Present available tasks, execute the selected one, then re-present remaining tasks until the user exits.

   Use AskUserQuestion:

   • header: "Post-Release Tasks"
   • question: "Release committed. What would you like to verify?"
   • options (show only uncompleted tasks):
     • "Run smoke tests" — Execute the project's test suite and report results
     • "Verify release artifacts" — Check version files, changelog entry, and git tag
     • "Check CI/CD status" — Show recent workflow runs and their status
     • "Everything looks good" — Skip remaining verification, proceed to step 9

   If "Run smoke tests":

   Execute the project's test suite:

   npm test 2>&1 || echo "SMOKE_TEST_FAILED"
   

   Report pass/fail results. If failures found, use AskUserQuestion:

   • header: "Test Failures"
   • question: "Smoke tests reported failures. How to proceed?"
   • options:
     • "Help me fix" — Stop and debug the failing tests
     • "Continue anyway" — Return to task menu

   If "Help me fix": Stop milestone completion and help debug.

   If "Verify release artifacts":

   Run artifact checks:

   VERSION="{{version}}"
   
   echo "=== Version File Check ==="
   # Use version-detector.md detected files or workflow config overrides
   for f in $(cat .planning/config.json 2>/dev/null | grep -o '"version_files"[[:space:]]*:[[:space:]]*\[[^]]*\]' | grep -o '"[^"]*"' | tr -d '"' | grep -v version_files); do
     if [ -f "$f" ]; then
       grep -q "$VERSION" "$f" && echo "✓ $f contains $VERSION" || echo "✗ $f missing $VERSION"
     fi
   done
   
   echo "=== Changelog Check ==="
   grep -q "$VERSION" CHANGELOG.md 2>/dev/null && echo "✓ CHANGELOG.md has $VERSION entry" || echo "✗ CHANGELOG.md missing $VERSION entry"
   
   echo "=== Git Tag Check ==="
   git tag -l "v$VERSION" | grep -q . && echo "✓ Tag v$VERSION exists" || echo "✗ Tag v$VERSION not found"
   

   Report results. If mismatches found, use AskUserQuestion:

   • header: "Artifact Issues"
   • question: "Release artifact issues detected. How to proceed?"
   • options:
     • "Fix issues" — Correct the mismatches (update version files, create missing tag)
     • "Continue anyway" — Return to task menu

   If "Fix issues": Apply fixes, commit, then return to task menu.

   If "Check CI/CD status":

   Query recent workflow runs:

   gh run list --limit 3 2>/dev/null || echo "No CI/CD runs found (gh CLI not configured or no workflows)"
   

   Report status. If failures found, use AskUserQuestion:

   • header: "CI/CD Failures"
   • question: "CI/CD failures detected. How to proceed?"
   • options:
     • "Investigate" — Show logs for the failed run (gh run view --log-failed)
     • "Continue anyway" — Return to task menu

   If "Investigate": Display failure logs, then return to task menu.

   If "Everything looks good": Proceed to step 9.

   Loop behavior: After each completed task, remove it from the options and re-present the menu. When all three tasks have been run or user selects "Everything looks good", proceed to step 9.

9. Offer next steps:

   • /kata-add-milestone — start next milestone (questioning → research → requirements → roadmap)

<success_criteria>

• Milestone archived to .planning/milestones/v{{version}}-ROADMAP.md
• Requirements archived to .planning/milestones/v{{version}}-REQUIREMENTS.md
• .planning/REQUIREMENTS.md deleted (fresh for next milestone)
• ROADMAP.md collapsed to one-line entry
• PROJECT.md updated with current state
• Git tag v{{version}} created (if pr_workflow=false) OR PR created/instructions given (if pr_workflow=true)
• GitHub Milestone v{{version}} closed (if github.enabled)
• Commit successful
• User knows next steps (including need for fresh requirements)

If release workflow was run:

• CHANGELOG.md updated with v{{version}} entry (reviewed and approved)
• Version bumped in all detected project version files
• GitHub Release created (if pr_workflow=false) OR instructions provided (if pr_workflow=true) </success_criteria>

<critical_rules>

• Load workflow first: Read milestone-complete.md before executing
• Verify completion: All phases must have SUMMARY.md files
• User confirmation: Wait for approval at verification gates
• Archive before deleting: Always create archive files before updating/deleting originals
• One-line summary: Collapsed milestone in ROADMAP.md should be single line with link
• Context efficiency: Archive keeps ROADMAP.md and REQUIREMENTS.md constant size per milestone
• Fresh requirements: Next milestone starts with /kata-add-milestone which includes requirements definition </critical_rules>
