Tech-spec workflow is typically only needed for Level 3-4 projects.
For Level 0-2, solution-architecture usually generates tech specs automatically.

Options:
1. Continue anyway (manual tech spec generation)
2. Exit (check if solution-architecture already generated tech specs)
3. Run workflow-status to verify project configuration

        <action>If user chooses exit → HALT with message: "Check docs/ folder for existing tech-spec files"</action>

      <ask>**No workflow status file found.**

The status file tracks progress across all workflows and stores project configuration.

Note: This workflow is typically invoked automatically by solution-architecture, or manually for JIT epic tech specs.

Options:
1. Run workflow-status first to create the status file (recommended)
2. Continue in standalone mode (no progress tracking)
3. Exit

- Epic Title: {{epic_title}}
- Tech Spec File: {{default_output_file}}

**Status file updated:**
- Current step: tech-spec (Epic {{epic_id}}) ✓
- Progress: {{new_progress_percentage}}%

**Note:** This is a JIT (Just-In-Time) workflow.
- Run again for other epics that need detailed tech specs
- Or proceed to Phase 4 (Implementation) if all tech specs are complete

**Next Steps:**
1. If more epics need tech specs: Run tech-spec again with different epic_id
2. If all tech specs complete: Proceed to Phase 4 implementation
3. Check status anytime with: `workflow-status`

Note: Running in standalone mode (no status file).

To track progress across workflows, run `workflow-status` first.

**Note:** This is a JIT workflow - run again for other epics as needed.
