"Implement phase 3 of the auth refactor"

you — in any AI chat

  1. 1

    Ready

    Read this phase's specification from the parent plan — typically
    a file under the plan's docs directory describing scope, approach,
    and verification for this phase.

    Confirm:

    • Scope is clear (what to deliver and what to exclude)
    • Approach is actionable (you know what to build)
    • Verification criteria exist (you know how to prove it works)
    • Any dependencies from earlier phases are met

    If anything is unclear or a dependency is unmet, raise it now
    before starting implementation.

  2. 2

    Implement

    Execute the work described in the phase specification.
    Keep changes focused on this phase's scope — do not
    scope-creep into adjacent work.

    Run tests after each significant change to catch regressions
    early.

  3. 3

    Verify

    Run the verification defined in the phase specification.
    Report what you checked, what passed, and what failed.

    If anything fails, reject to loop back to implement. Do not
    patch issues inline — the developer fixes, then verification
    re-runs from scratch.

    Request operator approval before advancing.

    The AI pauses here and waits for a human to approve before the conversation continues.
    If rejected → returns to implement
  4. 4

    Complete

    Phase complete. The parent plan's execute-phases step will
    detect this and advance to the next phase automatically.

  5. Workflow complete — outcome delivered, every step on record.

Why this workflow?

Without a workflow

  • A phase is called done the moment the code compiles, with no real check
  • There is no trace of what was built in this phase or whether it was verified
  • Each phase is executed differently depending on who picks it up

With ConvOps

  • The AI drives through Implement, then pauses at an approval step before the phase is marked complete
  • Every step — Ready, Implement, Verify — is logged automatically, so the audit trail is already there
  • The AI drives the same four-step phase process every time, with verification before completion
