Start ticket — begin work on $ARGUMENTS

[Plan → Execute]

Steps

1. Read the ticket (from git-erg tickets/ directory or forge).
2. Check the Exit criteria section. If unclear, ask the author before writing code.
3. If not already in a worktree, enter one: call EnterWorktree with name t$ARGUMENTS.
4. Create or checkout the ticket branch:

   git switch -c t$ARGUMENTS-short-description
   

5. Read the files listed in Relevant files.
6. Write the first test from the Test section of the ticket.
7. Run make check-fast — confirm the test fails.
8. Announce [Plan → Execute], then implement until make check passes.
9. Push the branch and open a merge request.
10. Review according to /review-pr.
11. Fix all comments regardless of severity.
12. Repeat 10–11 up to 3 times. If still not clean, escalate (see workflow rules).
