Todo Resolve

Resolve approved todos using parallel processing, document lessons learned, then clean up.

Only ready todos are resolved. pending todos are skipped — they haven’t been triaged yet. If pending todos exist, list them at the end so the user knows what was left behind.

Workflow

1. Analyze

Scan .context/systematic/todos/*.md and legacy todos/*.md. Partition by status:

ready (status field or -ready- in filename): resolve these.
pending: skip. Report them at the end.
complete: ignore, already done.

If a specific todo ID or pattern was passed as an argument, filter to matching todos only (still must be ready).

Residual actionable work from ce:review mode:autofix after its safe_auto pass will already be ready.

Skip any todo that recommends deleting, removing, or gitignoring files in docs/brainstorms/, docs/plans/, or docs/solutions/ — these are intentional pipeline artifacts.

2. Plan

Create a task list grouped by type (e.g., todowrite in OpenCode, update_plan in Codex). Analyze dependencies — items that others depend on run first. Output a mermaid diagram showing execution order and parallelism.

3. Implement (PARALLEL)

Spawn a systematic:workflow:pr-comment-resolver agent per item. Prefer parallel; fall back to sequential respecting dependency order.

Batching: 1-4 items: direct parallel returns. 5+ items: batches of 4, each returning only a short status summary (todo handled, files changed, tests run/skipped, blockers).

For large sets, use a scratch directory at .context/systematic/todo-resolve/<run-id>/ for per-resolver artifacts. Return only completion summaries to parent.

4. Commit & Resolve

Commit changes, mark todos resolved, push to remote.

GATE: STOP. Verify todos resolved and changes committed before proceeding.

5. Compound on Lessons Learned

Load the ce:compound skill to document what was learned. Todo resolutions often surface patterns and architectural insights worth capturing.

GATE: STOP. Verify the compound skill produced a solution document in docs/solutions/. If none (user declined or no learnings), continue.

6. Clean Up

Delete completed/resolved todo files from both paths. If a scratch directory was created at .context/systematic/todo-resolve/<run-id>/, delete it (unless user asked to inspect).

Todos resolved: [count]
Pending (skipped): [count, or "none"]
Lessons documented: [path to solution doc, or "skipped"]
Todos cleaned up: [count deleted]

If pending todos were skipped, list them:

Skipped pending todos (run /todo-triage to approve):
  - 003-pending-p2-missing-index.md
  - 005-pending-p3-rename-variable.md
