Graduate Development
This is the Codex command-style alias for Claude Code /graduate-development.
- Read
AGENTS.md for repository-wide rules.
- Read
docs/workflow/development-workflow/protocols/05b-graduate-development-protocol.md.
- Follow the protocol exactly for the provided development slug or integration branch.
- Do not merge without the human approval gates required by the protocol.
- After the graduation PR merges, run the Protocol 05b Step 5 graduation
closeout helper (
graduation-closeout.sh) so delivered sub-items and the
parent epic are closed or moved to the terminal tracker status in the right
order. Step 5 remains the primary path; merge-time automation may also run
the same reconciler via graduation-closeout-from-merged-pr.sh as a
fallback (idempotent if both run).
- Stop and surface the closeout summary if any delivered sub-item fails
reconciliation or any skipped optional/deferred item needs human disposition.
