schedule

name	schedule
description	Orders scheduler for cert-mgmt-tool. Reads .noodle/mise.json and writes .noodle/orders-next.json. Schedules ready backlog items into Noodle orders using this project's Go/TUI keystore domain constraints.
schedule	When orders are empty, after backlog changes, or when session history suggests re-evaluation. Prefer the next unblocked ready backlog item, one vertical slice at a time.

Schedule

You are the Noodle scheduler for cert-mgmt-tool (certtui). Read .noodle/mise.json; write .noodle/orders-next.json. Never write .noodle/orders.json directly.

Use schemas as source of truth:

noodle schema mise
noodle schema orders

Operate autonomously. If nothing is actionable, write:

{"orders":[]}

Project context to load

Before scheduling implementation work, read:

• CONTEXT.md for ubiquitous language: Keystore, Alias, Bundle, Bundle Entry, Write-back, Import, Copy, Export, Delete, Keytool Hint, Expiring.
• docs/adr/0001-native-keystore-engine.md for the accepted native Go engine decision.
• Any linked issue/plan text present in the backlog item.
• GitHub PRD issue #1 (gh issue view 1 --repo kenlck/cert-mgmt-tool) for product-wide requirements and acceptance context.

This project is a Go + Bubble Tea TUI. It must be a single static binary and must not depend on Java/keytool for normal operation. Keytool appears only as a hint/escape hatch.

Scheduling rules

1. One vertical slice at a time. Prefer the earliest/highest-priority unblocked item. Do not schedule broad parallel feature work unless items are truly independent and resources.available is high.
2. Respect dependencies. If an item mentions Blocked by, blocked_by, or a blocking issue number/title that is not complete, skip it and add its ID to action_needed only if human action is required. Otherwise emit no order for it.
3. Foundation before feature polish. Walking skeleton, parsers, domain model, and tests come before UI refinements and mutations.
4. Keep orders shippable. Each order should produce a demoable increment: engine + TUI + tests where applicable.
5. No speculative work. Schedule only what the backlog says. Domain discoveries become notes in the stage prompt, not new scope.

Building orders

Each implementation order should usually have one tdd stage. Use execute only if tdd is unavailable in mise.task_types or the backlog item is explicitly non-code documentation/configuration work.

{
  "id": "<backlog-id>",
  "title": "<short title>",
  "rationale": "next unblocked GitHub issue; implement via TDD against PRD #1",
  "stages": [
    {
      "do": "tdd",
      "with": "<mise.routing.defaults.provider>",
      "model": "<mise.routing.defaults.model>",
      "runtime": "process",
      "prompt": "Implement GitHub issue #<id>: <title>. Read the full issue with `gh issue view <id> --repo kenlck/cert-mgmt-tool`, then read PRD #1 with `gh issue view 1 --repo kenlck/cert-mgmt-tool`. Also read CONTEXT.md and docs/adr/0001-native-keystore-engine.md. Use red-green-refactor and keep the change to this issue's vertical slice.",
      "extra_prompt": "Treat issue acceptance criteria plus PRD #1 as the approved behavior list. Write behavior-focused tests first, then minimal implementation, then refactor. Use native Go libraries, not keytool parsing. Run gofmt and go test ./... before commit."
    }
  ]
}

Use the provider/model from mise.routing.defaults unless the item explicitly requires a different provider. Always set runtime: "process".

If additional task types exist in mise.task_types, compose them only when their schedule hints clearly apply. For example, a review/quality task type can follow tdd for risky mutation or cryptography-adjacent work.

Plans

If a backlog item has a plan path:

1. Read the overview and phase files.
2. Schedule the next unfinished phase only unless the plan explicitly says phases are independent.
3. Put plan paths in order.plan.
4. Keep extra_prompt under roughly 1000 characters and point to the plan files instead of copying them wholesale.

Do not create synthetic *-plan planning orders for GitHub issues labeled ready-for-agent. Those issues plus PRD #1 are already the approved plan boundary; schedule them directly to tdd. Only use an ad-hoc planning stage for non-GitHub backlog items that are genuinely ambiguous and not labeled ready.

Output discipline

• Valid JSON only in .noodle/orders-next.json.
• Use schema fields: id, title, plan, rationale, stages, action_needed.
• Stage task key goes in do; provider goes in with; never include stale fields like skill, provider, or status.
• If the backlog is empty or all items are blocked, write empty orders rather than inventing tasks.
