CWS-16 Task File (Backfilled)

Source

• Linear issue: CWS-16
• Linear URL: https://linear.app/codewithshabib/issue/CWS-16/dev-migrate-branch-naming-to-linear-first-convention
• Backfilled: 2026-03-18
• Status: Done

Objective

Resolve branch-policy conflicts so normal execution uses codex/cws-<id>-<slug> while rollout governance keeps codex/phase-<n>-<slug> support.

Scope Snapshot

• In scope: dual branch-pattern support across scripts, tests, and docs.
• Out of scope: rollout manifest/evidence model redesign and policy bypass paths.

Deterministic Acceptance Criteria (Snapshot)

1. Normal task branch standard is codex/cws-<id>-<slug>.
2. Rollout validation accepts both compliant task and phase branch modes.
3. create-pr and finalize-merge do not fail solely because branch is codex/cws-*.

Validation Commands (From Linear)

• bash scripts/run-rollout-governance-tests.sh
• make codex-check
• make qa-local
