## Workplan Convention (ADR-001)

File location: `workplans/DVD-WP-NNNN-<slug>.md`
ID prefix: `DVD-WP-`

Work items originate as files in this repo **before** being registered in the hub.

Canonical workplan frontmatter statuses are:
`proposed`, `ready`, `active`, `blocked`, `backlog`, `finished`, `archived`.
Use `proposed` for a newly drafted plan, `ready` after review against current
repo state, and `finished` when implementation is complete. `stalled` and
`needs_review` are derived health labels, not stored statuses.

Closed workplans may be moved to `workplans/archived/` with a completion-date
prefix: `YYMMDD-DVD-WP-NNNN-<slug>.md`. The frontmatter id remains
unchanged; the prefix is only for quick visual reference.

Small opportunistic tasks discovered during another session use **Ad Hoc Tasks**:
`workplans/ADHOC-YYYY-MM-DD.md`, workplan slug `adhoc-YYYY-MM-DD`, and task ids
`ADHOC-YYYY-MM-DD-T01`, `T02`, etc. Use adhocs only for low-risk work completed
directly. Promote anything requiring analysis, design, approval, dependencies, or
multiple planned phases into a normal workplan.

Ecosystem todos from other agents arrive as `[repo:direkt-vermittlung-de]` hub tasks —
visible at session start. Pick one up by creating the workplan file, committing,
and running `statehub fix-consistency` — C-06 registers the workplan in the hub.
Never register by hand with `create_workplan` (legacy MCP alias: `create_workstream`).

Task blocks use this shape:

```task
id: DVD-WP-NNNN-T01
status: wait | todo | progress | done | cancel
priority: high | medium | low
state_hub_task_id: "<uuid>"         # written by fix-consistency — do not edit
```

Status progression is `todo` → `progress` → `done`; use `wait` for waiting or
blocked work and `cancel` for stopped work.

Workplan frontmatter carries `state_hub_workstream_id` — a legacy field name
kept for compatibility; it holds the hub workplan UUID and is written by
fix-consistency. Do not edit or rename it.

### Legacy terminology (compatibility footnote)

**Workplan** is the fleet term — see
`the-custodian/canon/standards/workplan-terminology-fleet_v0.1.md`.
**Workplan** is legacy only: some API routes (`/workstreams/`), params
(`workstream_id`), MCP aliases (`create_workstream`), and the frontmatter field
above remain until `STATE-WP-0069` retires them via legacy-meter. Treat those
identifiers as workplan IDs. Prefer `GET /workplans/` and `workplan_id` in new
examples and scripts.
