# Cross-Phase Validation: Command Template Compliance

**Date**: 2026-01-20
**Phase**: Command Framework Testing
**Objective**: Validate all command templates conform to nWave specification and syntax requirements

## Command Template Registry

### Core Wave Commands

- **Compliance**: ✓ Validates against software-crafter spec

✓ **/nw:baseline** - Baseline Measurement (DEVELOP preparation)
- **Specification**: Quantitative metrics before roadmap
- **Metrics Tracked**: Code quality, test coverage, complexity
- **Output**: `baseline.yaml` with measurement data
- **Compliance**: ✓ Follows DEVELOP wave requirements

✓ **/nw:roadmap** - Strategic Planning
- **Specification**: Phased implementation roadmap
- **Output**: `roadmap.yaml` with phases and dependencies
- **Review Gate**: Requires @solution-architect approval
- **Compliance**: ✓ Generates proper handoff artifacts

✓ **/nw:split** - Step File Generation
- **Specification**: Creates atomic task files with TDD phase tracking
- **Output**: `steps/XX-YY.json` with phase_execution_log
- **Validation**: Pre-commit hooks validate structure
- **Compliance**: ✓ Generates valid step file format

✓ **/nw:execute** - Atomic Task Execution
- **Specification**: Executes one step with 14-phase TDD validation
- **Phase Tracking**: Updates phase_execution_log atomically
- **Commit Integration**: Creates git commit if all phases pass
- **Compliance**: ✓ Enforces 11-phase methodology

✓ **/nw:review** - Peer Review and Validation
- **Specification**: Software-crafter-reviewer provides quality assessment
- **Agents Supported**: @software-crafter, @solution-architect, @researcher
- **Iteration Limit**: Maximum 2 iterations, then escalate
- **Compliance**: ✓ Implements adversarial verification pattern

✓ **/nw:finalize** - Project Completion
- **Specification**: Archive implementation to docs/evolution/
- **Output**: Comprehensive feature completion document
- **Cleanup**: Removes feature-specific files after archiving
- **Compliance**: ✓ Follows handoff protocol

### Specialized Commands

✓ **/nw:refactor** - Progressive Refactoring
- **Specification**: Level 1-6 systematic refactoring hierarchy
- **Safety**: All tests must pass during and after refactoring
- **Validation**: Code smell detection and resolution
- **Compliance**: ✓ Implements Level 1-6 progression

✓ **/nw:mikado** - Complex Refactoring Planning
- **Specification**: Enhanced Mikado Method with discovery tracking
- **Output**: `docs/mikado/{goal-name}.mikado.md` with tree structure
- **Discovery Format**: Commit messages with exact specifications
- **Compliance**: ✓ Implements exhaustive exploration protocol

✓ **/nw:mutation-test** - Test Quality Assessment
- **Specification**: Mutation testing for effectiveness validation
- **Target Kill Rate**: ≥75-80% mutation score
- **Integration**: Works with existing test suite
- **Compliance**: ✓ Follows test effectiveness standards

## Template Compliance Checks

### Syntax Compliance

✓ **Command Format**
- Pattern: `/nw:{command-name} [agent-reference] [parameters]`
- Examples:
  - `/nw:develop "feature description"`
  - `/nw:review @software-crafter implementation`
  - `/nw:execute @researcher "steps/01-01.json"`

✓ **Agent References**
- Format: `@{agent-id}` (e.g., `@software-crafter`)
- Required for: review, execute commands
- Optional for: single-agent commands
- Validation: Agent must be registered in framework

✓ **Parameter Handling**
- String parameters: Quoted strings for multi-word values
- File references: Absolute or relative paths preserved correctly
- JSON payloads: Valid JSON structure validated before execution

**Compliance Check**: ✓ All commands follow syntax specification

### Specification Compliance

✓ **Phase Coverage**
- DEVELOP wave commands must track all 14 TDD phases
- Step files must have phase_execution_log with complete phase list
- Pre-commit hooks validate phase completion before commit

✓ **Quality Gate Enforcement**
- All test execution commands enforce 100% pass rate
- No skipped tests allowed in commits (except framework-controlled [Ignore])
- Build validation required before release

✓ **Handoff Protocol Compliance**
- Each command produces specified output artifacts
- Handoff packages contain all required context
- Next-phase agent can proceed without re-elicitation

**Compliance Check**: ✓ All commands enforce required specifications

### Integration Compliance

✓ **Pre-Commit Hook Integration**
- Commands respect hook validation requirements
- Phase execution logs generated in correct format
- No bypass attempts without audit logging

✓ **Orchestrator Integration**
- Commands register with orchestrator for routing
- User requests map correctly to agent commands
- Error propagation and escalation functional

✓ **Framework Registry Integration**
- Commands listed in `/nWave/framework-catalog.yaml`
- Help text available and accurate
- Version compatibility checked before execution

**Compliance Check**: ✓ All integration points functional
