Summary

Extend the review-plans skill to generate a board view (Gap/Shaped/Active/Closed columns) from plan frontmatter and enforce WIP limits (max 2-3 active plans).

Motivation

We researched Kanban board visualization and WIP limits but never applied them. The review-plans skill currently outputs a flat list. A board view shows flow of closure.

Steps

  1. Add board view to review-plans skill output (group plans by status into columns).
  2. Add WIP limit check (warn if >3 plans active).
  3. Add appetite field to plan template.
  4. Add milestone view (group plans by milestone, show completion %).

Done when

  • review-plans generates board view
  • WIP violation warning works
  • appetite field exists in template

Dependencies

  • Plan 0004 (planning system improvements)

Log

2026-03-07 — Created from semiotic-project-management spec gap analysis. Board, WIP limits, milestones, and appetites are all specified in the semiotic-project-management spec but not implemented.

2026-03-08 — Activated. Dependency on plan 0004 satisfied (completed). Beginning implementation.

2026-03-08 — Completed. All acceptance criteria met:

  • review-plans skill v0.3: board view with Draft/Shaped/Active/Closed columns, blocked markers, proposed markers, appetite display.
  • WIP limit check: warns if >3 active plans, notes at-limit at 3.
  • appetite field added to _template.md.
  • Milestone view: groups plans by milestone with completion %.
  • Summary table includes milestone and appetite columns. First plan to complete the full lifecycle using the methodology (draft → proposed → accepted → active → completed).
