Context

Working wayfinder map #425 surfaced the need for a frontier-walking skill: given a map ticket, compute the frontier (children whose Blocked-by tickets are all closed), propose one ticket to the user, and on approval hand it to the per-ticket implementation pipeline (/os-sdlc:implement), repeating until only the assembly ticket remains. Follows wayfinder conventions in plugins/os-backlog/references/wayfinder-conventions.md (Map:/Blocked by body lines, not tracker dependency fields). Naming per plugins/cc-architect/references/conventions/cc-os-naming.md.

Tasks

Skill computes the frontier from children's Blocked-by body lines and open/closed state
Proposes exactly one next ticket with rationale; user approval gates dispatch
Never auto-charts, never closes the map itself (assembly ticket does that)

Acceptance criteria

Running the skill against map #425 mid-chain proposes the correct frontier ticket

Origin

Trigger: user request during /to-tickets setup for map #425
Improvised this session: none
Chain: frontier-walking skill need ← wayfinder map #425 revealed gap, approved 2026-08-18
Root candidate: none

Resolution

Done: Closed in the 2026-09-23 relevance pass: no positive evidence that the problem still occurs in current code. By user decision, refile if it recurs.

Evidence: no map-walk/frontier files found; wayfinder conventions doc not checked further; unclear if superseded by os-sdlc:implement pipeline

Follow-ups: none
