RLM Workflow

What it does

Provides a complete repository workflow for implementing requirements via a strict phased process (Phase 0..7). It enforces worktree isolation, lockable artifacts with SHA-256 locks, TDD discipline, TODO hard gates, and traceability. The skill includes detailed phase contracts, gates, and commands to bootstrap runs and verify locks.

When to use it

Use when you need deterministic, auditable implementation runs: feature work, bug fixes requiring root-cause analysis, or large refactors that must follow strict gate checks and manual QA sign-off. Triggers include phrases like 'Implement requirement <run-id>' or 'Run RLM Phase <N>'.

What's included

• Scripts: repository contains helper scripts referenced in the SKILL (install-rlm-workflow.py, rlm-init.py, verify-locks.py) though has_scripts=false for fetch metadata; the SKILL documents commands and bootstrap steps.
• References: extensive procedural instructions and artifact templates described inline.
• Instructions: explicit phase-by-phase protocols, gating rules, TDD requirements, and quality enforcement patterns.

Compatible agents

Works best with agents that can run repo-local scripts, manage git worktrees, and spawn subagents for parallel phases (Codex, OpenCode, agents with subagent/task tools).
