Checklist Runner

Generic checklist execution engine. Validates work against any .md checklist with consistent behavior across all agents.

Usage

/checklist-runner story-dod-checklist
/checklist-runner pre-push-checklist --mode yolo
/checklist-runner po-master-checklist --mode interactive

Execution

1. Resolve Checklist

Parse $ARGUMENTS for checklist name. Search in order:

  1. .aiox-core/development/checklists/{name}.md
  2. .aiox-core/development/checklists/{name}
  3. Fuzzy match if exact not found (e.g., "dod" → "story-dod-checklist.md")

If no checklist specified or multiple matches, present numbered options list.

2. Determine Mode

ModeBehavior
yolo (default)Process all sections autonomously, present final report
interactiveSection-by-section with user confirmation between each

3. Load Context

Gather documents and artifacts specified at the top of the checklist:

  • Story files from docs/stories/
  • Source code files from story's File List
  • Test results from last npm test run
  • Git diff for current changes

4. Process Checklist Items

For each item in the checklist:

  1. Read and understand the requirement
  2. Look for evidence in documentation/code that satisfies it
  3. Consider both explicit mentions and implicit coverage
  4. Follow any embedded LLM instructions in the checklist

Mark each item:

VerdictSymbolMeaning
PASSRequirement clearly met
FAILRequirement not met or insufficient
PARTIAL⚠️Some aspects covered, needs improvement
N/ANot applicable (with justification)

5. Section Summary

For each section calculate:

  • Pass rate: (PASS count) / (total - N/A count) * 100
  • Common themes in failed items
  • Specific recommendations for improvement

6. Final Report

## Checklist Report: {checklist-name}

**Date:** {YYYY-MM-DD}
**Agent:** {current agent}
**Mode:** {yolo|interactive}

### Summary

| Section | Items | Pass | Fail | Partial | N/A | Rate |
