workflow-abort

name	workflow-abort
description	Abort a workflow — cleans up worktrees and branches, marks the workspace as aborted.

Workflow: Abort

Clean up a stuck or unwanted workflow. Removes git worktrees and branches but preserves workspace files for reference.

Workspace Discovery

The user invokes this as /workflow-abort {slug}.

1. If $ARGUMENTS is empty, scan .workflow/*/ directories and list available workspaces
2. Scan .workflow/*/ for a folder matching the slug $ARGUMENTS
3. Read STATUS.yaml — can be any phase except complete

Process

1. Confirm with user

Present the current state (phase, completed tasks, pending tasks) and ask: "This will remove all worktrees and branches for {slug}. The workspace files (discussion, design, plan, reports) will be preserved. Continue?"

Wait for confirmation before proceeding.

2. Remove task worktrees

Check for remaining task worktrees:

git worktree list

For each worktree under .workflow/{type}/{slug}/worktrees/task-*:

git worktree remove {TASK_WORKTREE} --force
git branch -D work/{type}/{slug}/task-{N}

3. Remove base worktree

If base_worktree exists in STATUS.yaml:

git worktree remove {BASE_WORKTREE} --force
git branch -D work/{type}/{slug}/base

4. Clean up worktrees directory

rm -rf {WORKSPACE}/worktrees

5. Update STATUS.yaml

phase: aborted
aborted: {ISO timestamp}

Remove base_worktree and task worktree keys (no longer valid).

6. Summary

## Workflow Aborted: {slug}

- Worktrees removed: {count}
- Branches deleted: {list}
- Workspace preserved at `.workflow/{type}/{slug}/`

Rules

• Always confirm before aborting — this removes git worktrees and branches
• Preserve workspace files — discussion, design, plan, and reports stay for reference
• Use --force for worktree removal — worktrees may have uncommitted changes
• Use -D for branch deletion — branches may not be fully merged
• Use -C for git commands — never use cd
