What track-management does

track-management guides work with Conductor tracks, the logical units used to organize features, bugs, and refactors. It covers creating and reviewing spec.md, writing plan.md, maintaining the tracks.md registry, and moving tracks through their lifecycle.

The skill sets rules for focused tracks, small phases, verification tasks, acceptance criteria, dependencies, and archiving. It also asks the agent to update task markers as work progresses and record commit SHAs for completed tasks. More detailed patterns live in references/details.md.

Install it when your project uses Conductor and you want consistent track records. Skip it for one-off changes that do not use tracks.

What it helps with

  • create a track for a feature, bug, or refactor
  • review spec.md before making a plan
  • split work into phases and tasks in plan.md
  • update task markers and record a commit SHA
  • link dependencies and archive a completed track

Example prompts for the agent

  • Create a Conductor track for this refactor and draft `spec.md`.
  • Review `plan.md`, add verification tasks, and update the task markers.
  • Check `tracks.md` and link this track to its dependencies.

# Track Management

Guide for creating, managing, and completing Conductor tracks - the logical work units that organize features, bugs, and refactors through specification, planning, and implementation phases.

## When to Use This Skill

- Creating new feature, bug, or refactor tracks
- Writing or reviewing spec.md files
- Creating or updating plan.md files
- Managing track lifecycle from creation to completion
- Understanding track status markers and conventions
- Working with the tracks.md registry
- Interpreting or updating track metadata

## Detailed patterns and worked examples

Detailed pattern documentation lives in `references/details.md`. Read that file when the navigation tier above is insufficient.

## Best Practices

1. **One track, one concern**: Keep tracks focused on a single logical change
2. **Small phases**: Break work into phases of 3-5 tasks maximum
3. **Verification after phases**: Always include verification tasks
4. **Update markers immediately**: Mark task status as you work
5. **Record SHAs**: Always note commit SHAs for completed tasks
6. **Review specs before planning**: Ensure spec is complete before creating plan
7. **Link dependencies**: Explicitly note track dependencies
8. **Archive, don't delete**: Preserve completed tracks for reference
9. **Size appropriately**: Keep tracks between 1-5 days of work
10. **Clear acceptance criteria**: Every requirement must be testable
