run-watch

Goal

Run watch mode for the specified task (build, test, typecheck) to continuously detect errors/regressions during development

Scope

• Use during active development when a continuous feedback loop is needed
• Pick the command based on the detected package manager and monorepo tool

Execute

Pre-Run: Always run /deep-review first — every run-* must be reviewed/assessed before the main action; never skip. If findings are blockers, fix or report them before running (watch).

1. Detect Command

Goal: Choose the correct watch command

1. Check package.json scripts and the tools in use (bun, turbo, moon, vitest, tsc, cargo)
2. Select by task:
   • build → bun run build --watch or the tool equivalent (tsc --watch, cargo watch)
   • test → bun test --watch / vitest (watch is the default) / cargo watch -x test
   • typecheck → bun run --watch typecheck (Bun, bun check has no --watch of its own) or tsc --noEmit --watch or the equivalent
3. Monorepo → use the monorepo run command first (turbo run <task> --watch)

2. Run Watch Mode

Goal: The watch process runs and captures output

1. Run the command as a background process
2. Check the initial output — errors, warnings, baseline status
3. Report that watch is running and what it is monitoring

3. Monitor And Report

Goal: Track errors that occur while watching

1. Check the output periodically as files are edited
2. If errors are found → run /resolve-errors or /deep-debug
3. Stop watch when the task finishes or the user asks

Rules

• Always run as a background process; never block the session
• Report the baseline status immediately after start
• Don't forget to stop the watch process when done

Expected Outcome

• Watch mode is running with continuous error reporting
• The initial state is clear (pass/fail baseline)
