name: ‘step-01b-resume’ description: ‘Resume interrupted workflow from last completed step’
Resume an interrupted workflow by loading the existing output document, displaying progress, and routing to the next incomplete step.
{communication_language}CRITICAL: Follow this sequence exactly. Do not skip, reorder, or improvise.
Read {outputFile} and parse YAML frontmatter for:
workflowStatus — overall workflow state (in-progress or completed)totalSteps — total number of create-mode workflow stepsstepsCompleted — array of completed step nameslastStep — last completed step namenextStep — next step file to executelastSaved — timestamp of last saveIf workflowStatus, totalSteps, or nextStep are missing (legacy progress file), infer them from lastStep using this mapping:
'step-01-detect-mode' → workflowStatus: 'in-progress', totalSteps: 5, nextStep: './step-02-load-context.md''step-02-load-context' → workflowStatus: 'in-progress', totalSteps: 5, nextStep: './step-03-risk-and-testability.md''step-03-risk-and-testability' → workflowStatus: 'in-progress', totalSteps: 5, nextStep: './step-04-coverage-plan.md''step-04-coverage-plan' → workflowStatus: 'in-progress', totalSteps: 5, nextStep: './step-05-generate-output.md''step-05-generate-output' → workflowStatus: 'completed', totalSteps: 5, nextStep: ''If {outputFile} does not exist, display:
“⚠️ No previous progress found. There is no output document to resume from. Please use [C] Create to start a fresh workflow run.”
THEN: Halt. Do not proceed.
Display:
“📋 Workflow Resume — Test Design and Risk Assessment
Workflow status: {workflowStatus} Last saved: {lastSaved} Last completed step: {lastStep} Next step: {nextStep || ‘None’} Steps completed: {stepsCompleted.length} of {totalSteps}”
If workflowStatus is 'completed', display:
“✅ All steps completed. Use [V] Validate to review outputs or [E] Edit to make revisions.”
THEN: Halt.
If nextStep is one of the known create-mode step files below, load it, read completely, and execute:
./step-02-load-context.md./step-03-risk-and-testability.md./step-04-coverage-plan.md./step-05-generate-output.mdIf nextStep is empty or does not match a known step file, display:
“⚠️ Unknown progress state (workflowStatus: {workflowStatus}, lastStep: {lastStep}, nextStep: {nextStep}). Please use [C] Create to start fresh.”
THEN: Halt.
The existing content in {outputFile} provides context from previously completed steps.
Master Rule: Resume MUST route to the exact next incomplete step. Never re-execute completed steps.
