Guided path

A five-step route with visible gates.

The action is simple. The decisions are not hidden: pause at each gate, review the proposed artifact, and only then move on.

Evidence

The folder tells you where to look next.

The spec captures the approved boundary. The team and plan show who was chosen and in what order. The run directory collects the later receipts.

.guild/runs/run-<id>/

A first run leaves a readable trail

  1. .guild/spec/<task>.md approved task boundary
  2. .guild/team/<task>.yaml phase specialists chosen at the gate
  3. .guild/plan/<task>.md lane order you approved
  4. .guild/runs/<id>/ receipts and verification after completion
