guard — Features are roadmap nouns, AC + DoD live at the Story
level.

decisions + open_items) when available; falls back to the entry
summary. Prints the seed and (unless --show-only) writes a new
discover entry with seed_from set.
Arguments
| Argument | Required |
|---|---|
PARENT_REF |
yes |
Options
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
--help |
Show this message and exit. |

Options
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
--help |
Show this message and exit. |
--parent |
Filter to a specific anchor doc. |
--scope |
Scope holding the SDLC docs (default: dna-development). (default: dna-development) |

entry for this parent (if any) gets ended_at stamped.
Arguments
| Argument | Required |
|---|---|
PHASE |
yes |
Options
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
--artifact |
External methodology artifact path/URL (e.g. docs/superpowers/plans/foo-plan.md). |

dna sdlc journey list¶
List the full trajectory (oldest first) for a parent ref. Useful to see "how did we get here" for a Feature/Epic.
For a Story/<name> parent the trajectory is DERIVED server-side
(s-journey-derived) from the Story's own state + linked artifacts —
the same computation the Studio bar renders. Feature/Epic parents
still list explicit WorkflowEvents (methodology ledger).

| Option | Description |
|---|---|
--help |
Show this message and exit. |
dna sdlc kaizen flag¶
Post a kaizen event onto a work item's timeline AND create
the first-class Kaizen doc twin (s-kaizen-kind).
A flagged kaizen observation shows up live in the FOCUS feed (the
kaizen event-type is part of the unified feed). Does NOT change the
work item's status — it's a running improvement note, optionally linking
the Issue/Story that tracks the fix.
Dual-write: the observation is ALSO persisted as a Kaizen doc
(kz-NNN-<slug>, record plane) so the improvement backlog is
queryable + semantically searchable; the timeline event carries a
kaizen_doc ref back to it.
<work_item> accepts Kind/slug (e.g. Story/s-x, Issue/i-1)
or a bare slug, which is treated as a Story.
Arguments
| Argument | Required |

dna sdlc story done¶
Mark Story status: done; auto-stamp commit_ref + optional summary.
Arguments
| Argument | Required |
|---|---|
NAME |
yes |
Options
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
--allow-no-produces |
Silencia o warn de outputs vazios (produces[] + back-refs). |
--allow-no-tests |
Pula o test gate (s-sdlc-tests-required-on-done). Use SÓ para exceções registradas — por padrão story done exige um TestRun outcome=pass que verifica a Story, espelhando o guard de --ac/--dod do story create. |
--commit-ref |
Git SHA shipped with this Story. Auto-detected from HEAD when omitted. |
--help |
Show this message and exit. |
--no-commit |
Story sem código (silencia o aviso de commit de entrega + isenta o test gate). |

--scope |
Scope holding the SDLC docs (default: dna-development). (default: dna-development) |
--summary |
One-line description of what shipped (lands on the timeline event). |
dna sdlc story groom¶
Read-modify-write: update only the board-grade fields passed.
Idempotent — running with no flags is a no-op (other than re-stamping updated_at, which we skip when nothing else changed).
Arguments
| Argument | Required |
|---|---|
NAME |
yes |
Options
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
--ac |
Acceptance criterion (repeatable). REPLACES existing list. |
--ac-source |
|
--business-value |
|
--dod |
DoD item (repeatable). REPLACES existing list. |
--dod-source |
|
--help |

--scope |
Scope holding the SDLC docs (default: dna-development). (default: dna-development) |
--sprint |
|
--title |
Retitle the Story (e.g. a cli-create title that came in truncated/desc-shaped — story pr builds the PR title from it). |
dna sdlc story pr¶
Open the Story's PR — gh pr create pre-filled FROM the story.
Title feat(<label>): <título> (<s-x>); body = description + AC
como checklist + footer de atribuição (dna sdlc pr-footer). O PR
nasce da story, não o contrário — e a URL volta pra timeline.
Arguments
| Argument | Required |
|---|---|
NAME |
yes |
Options
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
--base |
Base branch do PR (passthrough pro gh; default: o do repo). |
--draft |
Abre como draft. |
--dry-run |
Só imprime title + body montados; não chama gh. |
--head |
Head branch (default: a branch corrente — default do próprio gh). |
--help |
Show this message and exit. |
--scope |
Scope holding the SDLC docs (default: dna-development). (default: dna-development) |
dna sdlc story reopen¶
Reopen a closed/cancelled Story — flip status back to todo (or specified) and clear closed_at + cancelled_reason. Stamps a status_change event with the reopen reason.
Arguments
| Argument | Required |
|---|---|
NAME |
yes |
Options
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
--help |
Show this message and exit. |
--reason |

--scope |
Scope holding the SDLC docs (default: dna-development). (default: dna-development) |
--to |
Status to flip back to (default: todo). (default: todo) |
dna sdlc story review¶
Mark Story status: review.
Also emits a build journey event — submitting for review means the
implementation is complete. The journey is now DERIVED (s-journey-derived):
build is computed from the timeline status_change to in-progress/review
(or a commit_ref), and finer phases (specify/plan) light up automatically
from AC/DoD + linked Spec/Plan. No WorkflowEvent write needed.
Guard (i-133): review = PR aberto. Checa gh pr list --head <branch>
(fail-soft, ≤3s); sem PR aberto exige --no-pr --reason "<por quê>".
Arguments
| Argument | Required |
|---|---|
NAME |
yes |
Options
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
--help |
Show this message and exit. |
--no-narrate |

--note |
Narra esta transição (appenda comment inline na MESMA chamada). |
--reason |
Por que está marcando review sem PR aberto (vai pro timeline). |
--scope |
Scope holding the SDLC docs (default: dna-development). (default: dna-development) |
dna sdlc story show¶
Show a Story's full detail — header + AC/DoD + plan + recent timeline.
Reads via the API client (NOT the DB), so it works against any source (filesystem / Postgres / remote) without local Postgres access. Closes the gap where agents fell back to raw YAML / direct SQL to read a Story (i-070).
Arguments
| Argument | Required |
|---|---|
NAME |
yes |
Options
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
--help |
Show this message and exit. |
--json |

--scope |
Scope holding the SDLC docs (default: dna-development). (default: dna-development) |
dna sdlc story start¶
Mark Story status: in-progress.
Plan gate (s-story-start-plan-gate): você não começa sem decidir o
plano de ataque — --plan "1-3 linhas" (cria Plan inline),
--plan-doc <nome> (linka Plan existente), ou
--no-plan --skip-reason "..." (skip honesto, registrado). Em TTY
interativo sem flag, o CLI pergunta. O artefato nasce no caminho
crítico — ninguém esquece, e a fase plan derivada acende sozinha.
Side-effect: stamps .dna/active-story.txt with <scope>:<name>
so external tools (Claude Code hooks, IDE plugins) can attribute
out-of-band events to the Story currently being worked on.

NAME |

dna sdlc test-guide create¶
Create a TestGuide. Manual steps via --step, or stub them from a Story's acceptance_criteria via --from-ac (you then fill in each 'expected'). Pass --product to scaffold a UI-first product smoke (the lane the done-gate counts).
