* feat(#2833): parseStateMd reads phase-lifecycle frontmatter fields Extend parseStateMd() to parse 4 new STATE.md frontmatter fields that drive the phase-lifecycle status-line proposed in #2833: - active_phase : phase number when orchestrator is in-flight, null when idle - next_action : recommended next command when idle - next_phases : YAML flow array of phase numbers for next_action - progress : nested block with completed_phases / total_phases / percent All fields default to undefined when absent — formatGsdState() (next commit) degrades gracefully so existing STATE.md files keep rendering as before. YAML scope intentionally narrow: - Only top-level scalar keys (status, milestone, active_phase, next_action) - Only single-line flow array for next_phases ([...]) - progress block requires 2-space indent for nested keys Block sequences (- item over multiple lines) and inline comments inside nested blocks are NOT parsed — keeping the regex-based parser predictable. Comments outside frontmatter or after the closing --- still work. Tests: all 27 existing tests still pass (no behavior change for STATE.md files that don't carry the new fields). Refs #2833 * feat(#2833): formatGsdState renders phase-lifecycle scenes + opt-in progress bar Extend formatGsdState() with three lifecycle scenes that activate when the new STATE.md frontmatter fields (added in the previous commit) are present. Also append an opt-in progress bar to the milestone segment when progress.percent is available. Scenes (first match wins; falls through to the existing path otherwise): 1. active_phase set → 'v2.0 [██░] X% · Phase 4.5 executing' (status field carries the lifecycle stage: discussing / planning / executing / verifying) 2. active_phase null + → 'v2.0 [██░] X% · next execute-phase 4.5' next_action set (idle state — surfaces what the user should run next without opening STATE.md) 3. percent=100 (or → 'v2.0 [██████████] 100% · milestone complete' completed=total) 4. (default fallback) → 'v1.9 Code Quality · executing · ph (1/5)' (existing rendering, byte-for-byte preserved when none of the new fields are populated) Backward compat is the design priority: - STATE.md files without the new fields render identically to v1.38.x - progress bar is opt-in (empty string when percent absent) - Each new scene only activates when its specific fields are populated A new helper renderProgressBar() generates the 10-segment bar that matches the existing context meter style (so the two bars on the status-line are visually consistent). Tests: 27/27 existing tests still pass. Refs #2833 * test(#2833): cover parseStateMd lifecycle fields + formatGsdState scenes 26 new tests organized in 5 describe blocks, modeled after the existing enh-2538-statusline-last-command.test.cjs convention: parseStateMd #2833 lifecycle fields (7 tests) - reads active_phase / next_action / next_phases / progress.percent - 'null' literal handled correctly - YAML flow array parsing (1 item, multiple items) - progress nested block (3 fields) - absent fields return undefined formatGsdState #2833 lifecycle scenes (6 tests) - Scene 1: active_phase set → 'Phase X.Y <stage>' - Scene 2: idle + next_action → 'next <action> <phases>' (1+ phases) - Scene 3: percent=100 OR completed=total → 'milestone complete' formatGsdState #2833 backward compatibility (4 tests) — CRITICAL - Legacy STATE.md (no new fields) renders byte-for-byte unchanged - Empty state, partial state, progress-bar-opt-in all preserved progress bar rendering (6 tests) - 0% / 50% / 100% / clamping / opt-in absence formatGsdState #2833 scene priority (3 tests) - active_phase wins over next_action when both populated - next_action wins over fallback when active_phase null - percent=100 wins over fallback even with phase set Combined run: 53/53 tests pass (existing 27 + new 26). Refs #2833 * docs(#2833): describe phase-lifecycle frontmatter fields and rendering scenes Add docs/STATE-MD-LIFECYCLE.md as the canonical reference for the four new STATE.md frontmatter fields and the four status-line rendering scenes introduced by this proposal: - Frontmatter field reference (active_phase / next_action / next_phases / progress.percent) with type and population semantics - Why progress.percent is intentionally the phase dimension and not the plans dimension (plans dimension trends optimistic when future phases are unplanned) - The four rendering scenes including their priority order - Stage-label convention for Scene 1 (discussing / planning / executing / verifying matching the four phase orchestrators) - Frontmatter parsing constraints — frontmatter must start at file head, no comments inside nested blocks, next_phases is single-line flow only - Backward-compatibility guarantee (locked in by the test suite) - Cross-links to the foundation issue #1989 and the read-side issues this proposal helps close The document deliberately scopes itself to the read-side (what the hook parses, what it renders). Write-side SDK and workflow changes that auto-maintain the fields are out of scope for this PR so each piece can be reviewed independently — see the issue thread for the full proposal. Refs #2833 * test(#2833): simplify '0% renders 10 empty segments' assertion Address CodeRabbit nitpick — drop the convoluted assert.equal that built the expected value via .replace() and rely on the existing assert.ok includes-check. The behavior under test is unchanged; the assertion is just easier to read. Refs #2884 review comment
