Project Lifecycle Workflow FAQs

Question 1

How do I install the Project Workflow skill?

Accepted Answer

You can install it directly via the Claude Code CLI using the command: /plugin install project-workflow@claude-skills

Question 2

Do I need to follow the entire workflow for every project?

Accepted Answer

No, the commands are integrated but flexible. You can use /plan-feature for existing projects, or just use /release for its safety checks, though using the full workflow maximizes time savings.

Question 3

What documentation does the /plan-project command generate?

Accepted Answer

It automatically creates a suite of planning docs including IMPLEMENTATION_PHASES.md, SESSION.md, and optionally DATABASE_SCHEMA.md, API_ENDPOINTS.md, and ARCHITECTURE.md.

Question 4

What safety checks are included in the /release command?

Accepted Answer

It performs 8 phases of checks including gitleaks secret scanning, personal artifact detection, documentation validation (README, LICENSE), and build/audit tests.

Question 5

How does /wrap-session help with Claude's token limits?

Accepted Answer

The /wrap-session command analyzes the current session, updates a SESSION.md progress log, and creates a git checkpoint. This allows you to clear the context window and resume with full context later using /continue-session.
