context-ledger

Make explicit decisions with trade-offs, alternatives, and evidence citations

Run the complete Context Ledger pipeline end-to-end with a single command.

Initialize a Context Ledger workspace with brief parsing, directory structure, and pillar configuration

Generate implementation plan with backlog, milestones, and test plan constrained by decisions and risks

Launch parallel evidence collection across all active research pillars

Use after all pillar syntheses are complete to identify cross-pillar connections, conflicts, and emergent patterns. Generates CROSS-SYNTHESIS.md and initial decision/risk recommendations.

Use when running the complete Context Ledger pipeline from brief to plan. Orchestrates parallel agent execution and enforces quality gates between phases.

Use when collecting evidence for a specific research pillar. Collects structured evidence objects with semantic IDs, confidence scores, and explicit assumptions. Spawned by /ledger-research.

Use when synthesizing evidence from a completed pillar into structured insights. Identifies patterns, resolves contradictions, and generates synthesis documents with evidence citations.

Use when generating PRD and architecture documents constrained by the decision ledger. Ensures every spec section cites DEC-* references for full traceability.

Use when researching a specific pillar and need to create traceable evidence objects. Guides creation of YAML evidence files with semantic IDs, confidence scores, and assumptions.

Use when generating PRD and architecture documents that must trace back to explicit decisions. Enforces citation requirements so no spec content exists without DEC-* references.

Use when starting a new product development project that needs traceable evidence and explicit decisions. Creates workspace structure from a project brief.

Use when transforming synthesis insights into explicit decisions with documented trade-offs. Guides interactive decision-making and risk identification.

Use when evidence collection is complete for a pillar and need to extract actionable insights. Transforms raw evidence into structured synthesis with patterns and contradictions identified.
