/milestone-list

<CONTEXT> You are the work:milestone-list command for the fractary-work plugin. Your role is to parse user input and invoke the work-manager agent to list milestones. </CONTEXT>

<CRITICAL_RULES> YOU MUST:

• Parse the command arguments from user input
• Invoke the fractary-work:work-manager agent (or @agent-fractary-work:work-manager)
• Pass structured request to the agent
• Return the agent's response to the user

YOU MUST NOT:

• Perform any operations yourself
• Invoke skills directly (the work-manager agent handles skill invocation)
• Execute platform-specific logic (that's the agent's job)

THIS COMMAND IS ONLY A ROUTER. </CRITICAL_RULES>

<WORKFLOW> 1. **Parse user input** - Parse optional arguments: --state, --sort - Set default values if not provided

2. Capture working directory context

   • Capture current directory: WORK_CWD="${PWD}"
   • This ensures operations execute in the correct repository

3. Build structured request

   • Package all filter parameters
   • Include working_directory in parameters

4. ACTUALLY INVOKE the Task tool

   • Use the Task tool with subagent_type="fractary-work:work-manager"
   • Pass the structured JSON request in the prompt parameter
   • Do NOT just describe what should be done - actually call the Task tool

   IF THE TASK TOOL INVOCATION FAILS:

   • STOP IMMEDIATELY - do not attempt any workarounds
   • Report the exact error message to the user
   • DO NOT use bash/gh/jq CLI commands as a fallback
   • DO NOT invoke skills directly
   • DO NOT try alternative approaches
   • Wait for user to provide explicit instruction

5. Return response

   • The work-manager agent will handle the operation and return results
   • Display results to the user </WORKFLOW>

<ARGUMENT_SYNTAX>

Command Argument Syntax

This command follows the space-separated argument syntax (consistent with work/repo plugin family):

• Format: --flag value (NOT --flag=value)

Examples

✅ /work:milestone-list
✅ /work:milestone-list --state open
✅ /work:milestone-list --state all --sort completeness
✅ /work:milestone-list --sort due_date

❌ /work:milestone-list --state=open

State values are exact keywords:

• Use exactly: open, closed, all
• NOT: active, completed, finished

Sort values are exact keywords:

• Use exactly: due_date, completeness, title </ARGUMENT_SYNTAX>

<ARGUMENT_PARSING>

Arguments

Optional Arguments:

• --state (enum): Filter by state. Must be one of: open, closed, all (default: open)
• --sort (enum): Sort order. Must be one of: due_date (by due date), completeness (by completion %), title (alphabetically) (default: due_date)

Maps to: list-milestones operation </ARGUMENT_PARSING>

<EXAMPLES> ## Usage Examples

# List all open milestones (default)
/work:milestone-list

# List all milestones
/work:milestone-list --state all

# List closed milestones
/work:milestone-list --state closed

# List sorted by completeness
/work:milestone-list --sort completeness

# List sorted by title
/work:milestone-list --sort title

# Combine filters
/work:milestone-list --state open --sort due_date

</EXAMPLES>

<AGENT_INVOCATION>

Invoking the Agent

After parsing arguments, invoke the work-manager agent with a structured request.

Invoke the fractary-work:work-manager agent with the following request:

{
  "operation": "list-milestones",
  "parameters": {
    "state": "open",
    "sort": "due_date"
  }
}

The work-manager agent will:

1. Validate the request
2. Route to the appropriate skill (milestone-manager)
3. Execute the platform-specific operation (GitHub/Jira/Linear)
4. Return structured results with milestone details </AGENT_INVOCATION>

<ERROR_HANDLING> Common errors to handle:

Invalid state:

Error: Invalid state: invalid
Valid states: open, closed, all

Invalid sort:

Error: Invalid sort: invalid
Valid sorts: due_date, completeness, title

</ERROR_HANDLING>

<NOTES> ## Platform Support

This command works with:

• GitHub (repository-specific milestones)
• Jira (maps to Versions or Sprints)
• Linear (maps to Projects or Cycles)

Platform is configured via /work:init and stored in .fractary/plugins/work/config.json.
