description: "Guide a first Spec Kitty feature from setup through specify, plan, tasks, implementation, review, accept, merge, and retrospective."

spk-start-first-feature

Use this skill when a user wants to start their first Spec Kitty mission or feature and needs the end-to-end path.

Workflow

1. Verify install and agent surface with `spk-admin-setup-doctor` if commands or skills are missing. 2. Create or select the mission with `/spec-kitty.specify`. 3. Build the plan with `/spec-kitty.plan`. 4. Produce work packages with `/spec-kitty.tasks` or the outline/packages/finalize split when the project uses staged task authoring. 5. Advance work with `spk-run-next`. 6. Drive implementation/review loops with `spk-run-implement-review`. 7. Close with `spk-gate-accept`, then `spk-gate-merge`. 8. Finish post-merge checks with `spk-gate-mission-review` and `spk-gate-retrospective`.

Guardrails

• Keep the user on one mission until a blocker requires a different route.
• Treat generated runtime prompt files as authoritative for the current action.
• Do not skip review, accept, or merge gates just because implementation appears

complete.
