orch-change-feature
Actor · action · target: orch · change · feature. Thin wrapper over the
shared engine in orch-pipeline.
When to Use
- An existing feature works, but the desired behavior is different ("change", "adjust", "make it also …", "instead of X do Y").
- Distinguish from siblings:
- not broken → not
orch-fix-defect(no bug to reproduce). - not new → not
orch-add-feature(the capability already exists).
- not broken → not
Operation settings
- Default size floor: small — most tweaks are a function or two.
- Phase mask: 0 → (1 only if the new behavior needs research) → light 2 → 4 → 5 → 6.
- First move (phase 4): update the existing tests to express the new desired behavior, then change the implementation until they pass. Changing the tests first is what separates a tweak from a fix.
How It Works
- Run the
orch-pipelineengine with the settings above. - Keep the plan light — only
standard+ size warrants the fullplannerpass. - Stop at Gate 1 (plan / changed-test approval) and Gate 2 (pre-commit).
- Add
security-reviewerif the change touches a security trigger.
Example
orch-change-feature: make nws-poller alert at 2 warnings instead of 3
→ update threshold tests to new spec → change impl to green
→ code-review → commit [GATE 2: confirm]
