- Project created in Backlog
- @tristan assigned as owner
- Motivations doc created: validate the Rails bot works, catch bugs before involving Dan, help the team finish projects faster
- Moved to Shape
- Shape deliverable committed: done when Tristan is confident the bot works technically
- Moved to Execute
- Several bot improvements made along the way: git identity setup, auto-push, commit links, motivation.md convention, owner emphasis in transitions

# test — Shape
## Definition of done
This project is done when @tristan feels confident that the basic technical side of the Rails bot works reliably.
## Scope
The work is simply running this project through every stage — Backlog → Shape → Execute → Ship → Learn → Done — and confirming the bot handles each transition correctly.
## Appetite
Small. This is a quick validation pass, not a deep build-out.
Execute Output
# test — Execute
## What was done
- Ran the project through Backlog → Shape → Execute to validate core bot workflows
- Tested: project creation, owner assignment, stage transitions, doc linking, status queries
- Made several bot improvements during execution:
- Git identity auto-config (`rails@readwise.io`)
- Auto-push after every commit
- Commit links in every Slack confirmation
- `motivation.md` as a new standard project doc
- Owner emphasis in all stage transitions, assignments, and status messages
- Updated `context.md` with running summary of progress
Ship Output
# test — Ship
## What shipped
The Rails bot is now functional with a solid baseline feature set:
- Project creation, owner assignment, stage transitions all working
- Git-backed state management (state.yml, context.md, stage deliverables)
- Auto-push to GitHub on every commit
- Commit links in every Slack confirmation
- Owner prominently called out in transitions, assignments, and status
- Stage deliverables written automatically before each transition
- `motivation.md` added as a standard project doc
## What's left
Ready for real-world use. Next step is to run a retro and decide if we're confident enough to bring Dan in.
