wave-createlisted

Use when turning a chosen set of issue ids into a wave that can actually be run — re-checks that every issue has what an agent needs, surfaces any overlapping files and any issue in the batch that has to wait for another one (stopping to ask before it goes ahead either way), writes the wave's own plan file, and marks the issues as taken so a second batch will not grab them. Triggers on "create the wave", "materialize wave <slug>", "build the spine for these issues".

# wave-create Materialize one approved wave from a slug and a set of chosen issue ids (the human picked them via `wave-plan`): assemble the roster, run DoR + cross-wave, render the durable `WAVE.md` spine, create sidecar dirs, and set the `queued` soft-claim on each issue. **Does not dispatch** — that is `wave-start` (P7.4). **Does not author the `WAVE.md` markdown** — the engine `renderSpine`/`spine create` owns every parser-consumed section (ADR-0016); this skill supplies only the structured inputs and the opaque `## DOR-check` prose. Your job is the **judgment** — assembling the roster, deciding whether DoR failures and cross-wave conflicts warrant proceeding or aborting, composing the payload, and setting the soft-claim in the right order. The CLI plumbing (the full worked sequence, the exact payload shape, a worked `payload.json`) lives in [reference/create-mechanics.md](reference/create-mechanics.md) — reach for it once the gate checks pass. You never write a tracker directly; everything goes through the engine CLI (`{{wave-cli}}`). ## When to Use - The human has approved a set of issue ids from `wave-plan` and is ready to materialize the wave. - You have a slug (e.g. `2026-06-18-triage-engine`) and a list of ids. Do **not** use this for planning (that is `wave-plan`), for slicing work into issues (`to-issues`), or for dispatching workers (`wave-start`). wave-create is the materialization step; wave-plan is the advisory pass that precedes it. ## THE FLOTILLA BOUND
