description	Quick feature status and "what to do next" guide. Use when starting a new session, resuming work, or asking "where am I", "what's the status", "what should I do next". Gives a zero-to-hero walkthrough of the current feature branch. Part of the ShipIT autonomous SDLC platform — https://github.com/jrmatherly/shipit

Feature Status & Next Steps

Quickly orient the user on the current feature branch: what's done, what to try, and how to proceed.

Workflow

1. Detect current branch — git branch --show-current
2. Find the matching spec — look for a specs/NNN-* directory whose feature.yaml branch field matches the current branch
3. Read these files (in parallel):
   • specs/NNN-*/feature.yaml — lifecycle, phase, progress, completed phases
   • specs/NNN-*/tasks.yaml — task list with states
   • specs/NNN-*/spec.yaml — summary, success criteria
4. Read recent commits — git log --oneline -10 to see what was done
5. Produce the status report (see format below)

Output Format

Present a concise, user-friendly status report using this structure:

## [Feature Name] — Status

**Branch:** `feat/NNN-feature-name`
**Phase:** <current phase from feature.yaml>
**Progress:** <completed>/<total> tasks (<percentage>%)

### What's Done
- <bullet list of completed phases/key commits — keep it brief>

### Try It Now
<Step-by-step instructions to SEE the feature in action. Be specific:>
1. **Build:** `pnpm build`
2. **CLI:** `shipit-ai settings model` → pick a model
3. **CLI:** `shipit-ai feat new --model claude-opus-4-6 "test feature"`
4. **Web UI:** `pnpm dev:web` → open http://localhost:3000 → Settings → Model picker
5. **Tests:** `pnpm test` → all green

<Tailor these steps to the actual feature. Reference specific commands, URLs, UI paths, clicks.>

### What's Left
- <remaining tasks or "nothing — ready for PR">

### Next Action
<Single clear sentence: what the user should do RIGHT NOW>

Rules

• Be specific — don't say "run the app", say pnpm dev:cli or pnpm dev:web with the exact URL
• Be brief — no walls of text, just actionable steps
• Show commands — every "try it" step should have a copy-pasteable command or a click path
• Read the spec — the success criteria in spec.yaml tell you what the user should be able to verify
• Check task states — if tasks.yaml shows all tasks as Todo but commits exist, the feature was implemented outside the task tracker (common). Use commits + build status as ground truth.
• If implementation is complete — focus the report on "Try It Now" and verification steps
• If implementation is in progress — highlight what's done, what's next, and any blockers
