Sync Check

Synchronize and report on parallel workstreams (Phase 5)

Sync Check Command

Purpose

Review cross-stream dependencies and synchronization status in Phase 5. Identify cross-workstream blockers, dependency conflicts, and synchronization issues between dev, marketing, and ops streams.

Steps

  1. Verify phase 5 status

    • Read project-state.md
    • Check phase field
    • If not phase 5:
      • Inform user: "Sync check is only available in Phase 5 (execution wind-down)"
      • Do not proceed
    • If phase 5, continue
  2. Query cross-stream tasks

    • Query ~~project tracker for all active tasks across workstreams:
      • Development (dev)
      • Marketing (marketing)
      • Operations (ops)
    • Retrieve task status, dependencies, and assigned executors
    • Identify tasks with cross-stream dependencies
  3. Analyze synchronization

    • Map task dependencies across streams
    • Identify critical path items requiring cross-stream coordination
    • Detect blocked tasks awaiting completion from other streams
    • Note tasks on track vs at-risk
  4. Generate sync report

    • Trigger monitor-progress skill with report_type=sync
    • Include:
      • Cross-stream dependency matrix
      • Blocker identification and impact
      • At-risk items requiring escalation
      • Recommended actions to unblock
  5. Save report

    • Save report to reports/sync-report-{YYYY-MM-DD}.md
    • Include timestamp and phase confirmation
  6. Highlight critical blockers

    • Extract high-impact cross-stream blockers
    • For each blocker:
      • Show affected workstreams
      • Show impact (tasks/timeline affected)
      • Show recommended resolution path
  7. Update project state

    • Update project-state.md with:
      • Last sync check timestamp
      • Number of active cross-stream blockers
      • Critical path status
    • Log action in project audit trail
