alto-feature-setup
Use when starting a new feature - running /alto-feature-setup, updating objective.md, or running alto-new-run. Interactive workflow for feature initialization.
Best use case
alto-feature-setup is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.
Use when starting a new feature - running /alto-feature-setup, updating objective.md, or running alto-new-run. Interactive workflow for feature initialization.
Teams using alto-feature-setup should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.
When to use this skill
- You want a reusable workflow that can be run more than once with consistent structure.
When not to use this skill
- You only need a quick one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.
- You cannot install or maintain the underlying files, dependencies, or repository context.

# ALTO Feature Setup Interactive skill for starting a new feature. ## Flow ### 1. Analyze Current State First, invoke `alto-feature-finder` agent to understand: - What features are completed - What's currently in progress - What should be next ``` Use the alto-feature-finder agent to analyze the project ``` ### 2. Mark Previous Feature Complete (if needed) If there's a completed feature that hasn't been marked done: - Update `objective.md`: - Mark Definition of Done items as `[x]` - Add completion note: `**Completed:** run/NNN (YYYY-MM-DD)` ### 3. Discuss New Feature Have a conversation with the user: - What feature to work on next? - Any clarifications on scope? - Any constraints or preferences? Then update `objective.md` with the feature definition: - Goal statement - Requirements (numbered: N.1, N.2, etc.) - Definition of Done (checkboxes) ### 4. Run Mechanical Setup Tell the user to run: ```bash # Clean previous artifacts alto-clean # Create new run branch alto-new-run ``` Or they can do it manually if they prefer different branch naming. ### 5. Handoff Tell user: > Feature setup complete. Run `claude` in a new terminal. > Say "continue" to start the architecture phase. --- ## Devenv Scripts Reference | Script | Purpose | |--------|---------| | `alto-setup` | First-time project initialization | | `alto-feature` | Quick reminder of this flow | | `alto-new-run` | Create run branch, reset state | | `alto-clean` | Clean previous run artifacts | | `alto-status` | Show current ALTO status | ## Notes - This skill is INTERACTIVE - follow it WITH the user - Use `alto-feature-finder` agent for codebase analysis - Mechanical tasks are scripts, not manual commands - After setup, user starts NEW session for autonomous work
