Define the workAvailable in v0.3.0
A packet holds everything about one task: intent, scope, plan, acceptance gates and return format. The intent states the problem, desired outcome and checkable success conditions, must be accepted before it binds to a lease, and travels byte for byte to every stage, worker and reviewer. Every return ends with one AC line per success condition.
When the goal lives only in a chat, each stage and reviewer works from a slightly different version of it, and “done” drifts away from what you actually asked for.
oah packet new <task> writes .oah/tasks/<task>/PACKET.md from a template and scores the stage routes into its ## Plan; oah packet check <task> says what is still missing.AC1, AC2, …). Success conditions are outcomes you can check, not process steps.Status: draft cannot be bound to a lease (OAH_INTENT_NOT_ACCEPTED). Intent-ID never changes; a changed goal raises Revision, which you accept and rebind.oah intent show <task> prints the binding state: current, stale, missing or unbound.INTENT <id>@r<n> <digest> and one AC<n>: met|unmet|deferred — <evidence> line per success condition, checked by oah finish --return and each review round.oah preflight --task T aborts when your branch is behind or another lease holds your paths, warns about a dirty tree or new commits touching your scope, and lists what it did not prove.The intent filled in for the worked example's task.
Status: accepted
### Problem
`python hello.py` always prints `Hello, world!`; it cannot greet a person by name.
### Desired outcome
`python hello.py Ada` prints `Hello, Ada!`, and without a name it still prints `Hello, world!`.
### Success conditions
- AC1: `python hello.py Ada` prints `Hello, Ada!`.
- AC2: the unit tests pass, including a test for a name.- repo for the whole repository; oah packet new <task> --scope <path> fills it for you.## Scope warns OAH_SCOPE_EMPTY, and oah start --packet refuses it.OAH_PACKET_PLACEHOLDER.OAH_INTENT_NOT_CURRENT): restore it, or raise Revision, accept and rebind.OAH_INTENT_RETURN_INVALID.ABORT verdict (exit code 2) must be fixed first.
