<objective>
Mark milestone {{version}} complete, archive to milestones/, and update ROADMAP.md and REQUIREMENTS.md.
Purpose: Create historical record of shipped version, archive milestone artifacts (roadmap + requirements), and prepare for next milestone.
Output: Milestone archived (roadmap + requirements), PROJECT.md evolved, git tagged.

Load these files NOW (before proceeding):
- @${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/workflows/complete-milestone.md (main workflow)
- @${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/templates/milestone-archive.md (archive template)
</execution_context>
<context>
**Project files:**
- `.planning/ROADMAP.md`
- `.planning/REQUIREMENTS.md`
- `.planning/STATE.md`
- `.planning/PROJECT.md`
User input:
- Version: {{version}} (e.g., "1.0", "1.1", "2.0")
</context>
<process>
Follow complete-milestone.md workflow:
-
Check for audit:
- Look for
.planning/v{{version}}-MILESTONE-AUDIT.md
- If missing or stale: recommend
/gsd:audit-milestone first
- If audit status is
gaps_found: recommend /gsd:plan-milestone-gaps first
- If audit status is
passed: proceed to step 1
## Pre-flight Check
{If no v{{version}}-MILESTONE-AUDIT.md:}
⚠ No milestone audit found. Run `/gsd:audit-milestone` first to verify
requirements coverage, cross-phase integration, and E2E flows.
{If audit has gaps:}
⚠ Milestone audit found gaps. Run `/gsd:plan-milestone-gaps` to create
phases that close the gaps, or proceed anyway to accept as tech debt.
{If audit passed:}
✓ Milestone audit passed. Proceeding with completion.
-
Verify readiness:
- Check all phases in milestone have completed plans (SUMMARY.md exists)
- Present milestone scope and stats
- Wait for confirmation
-
Gather stats:
- Count phases, plans, tasks
- Calculate git range, file changes, LOC
- Extract timeline from git log
- Present summary, confirm
-
Extract accomplishments:
- Read all phase SUMMARY.md files in milestone range
- Extract 4-6 key accomplishments
- Present for approval
-
Archive milestone:
- Create
.planning/milestones/v{{version}}-ROADMAP.md
- Extract full phase details from ROADMAP.md
- Fill milestone-archive.md template
- Update ROADMAP.md to one-line summary with link
-
Archive requirements:
- Create
.planning/milestones/v{{version}}-REQUIREMENTS.md
- Mark all v1 requirements as complete (checkboxes checked)
- Note requirement outcomes (validated, adjusted, dropped)
- Delete
.planning/REQUIREMENTS.md (fresh one created for next milestone)
-
Update PROJECT.md:
- Add "Current State" section with shipped version
- Add "Next Milestone Goals" section
- Archive previous content in
<details> (if v1.1+)
-
Commit and tag:
- Stage: MILESTONES.md, PROJECT.md, ROADMAP.md, STATE.md, archive files
- Commit:
chore: archive v{{version}} milestone
- Tag:
git tag -a v{{version}} -m "[milestone summary]"
- Ask about pushing tag
-
Offer next steps:
/gsd:new-milestone — start next milestone (questioning → research → requirements → roadmap)
</process>
<output_format>
After the milestone is archived and tagged, emit a Milestone Complete continuation block following the pattern in references/continuation-format.md (§ Milestone Complete variant):
## 🎉 Milestone v{{version}} Complete with phase/plan/task summary
- Brief one-paragraph "what shipped" recap
## ▶ Next Up heading
- Use
`/clear` then: before /gsd:new-milestone
- Parenthetical: (
/clear is safe — /gsd:resume-work restores position from HANDOFF.json if you change your mind)
- Optional "Also available:" with
/gsd:audit-milestone (retrospective audit) or /gsd:review-backlog (deferred items review)
Milestone close is the single biggest context-shed point in the workflow. The just-shipped milestone's plan/execute conversation is finished; the next milestone wants a clean slate. Always suggest /clear.
</output_format>
<success_criteria>
- Milestone archived to
.planning/milestones/v{{version}}-ROADMAP.md
- Requirements archived to
.planning/milestones/v{{version}}-REQUIREMENTS.md
.planning/REQUIREMENTS.md deleted (fresh for next milestone)
- ROADMAP.md collapsed to one-line entry
- PROJECT.md updated with current state
- Git tag v{{version}} created
- Commit successful
- User knows next steps (including need for fresh requirements)
</success_criteria>
<critical_rules>
- Load workflow first: Read complete-milestone.md before executing
- Verify completion: All phases must have SUMMARY.md files
- User confirmation: Wait for approval at verification gates
- Archive before deleting: Always create archive files before updating/deleting originals
- One-line summary: Collapsed milestone in ROADMAP.md should be single line with link
- Context efficiency: Archive keeps ROADMAP.md and REQUIREMENTS.md constant size per milestone
- Fresh requirements: Next milestone starts with
/gsd:new-milestone which includes requirements definition
