EM Intake

What it does

Captures a new requirement, opens a dedicated REQ folder, and triages whether the work follows the lightweight Mode A path or the full five-role Mode B pipeline. Every feature, fix, or enhancement enters the eng-org system through this command.

When to use it

Run this command whenever you have a new requirement to capture — a new feature, a bug fix, an enhancement, or any change that needs to move through the pipeline.

Inputs

• ›requirement description (plain text)

Outputs

• ›REQ folder
• ›spec.md
• ›capabilities ledger entry

Example

/eng-org:em-intake "Add webhook retry with exponential backoff" — creates REQ-20260723-d904-01/, writes spec.md with Mode B triage, and registers the capability so other machines can see it during duplicate checks.
