Struct ApprovalManager 

pub struct ApprovalManager;

Manages approval gates and phase transitions for spec writing sessions

Implementations

impl ApprovalManager

pub fn new() -> Self

Creates a new approval manager

pub fn initialize_gates() -> Vec<ApprovalGate>

Initializes approval gates for all phases in a new session

Creates approval gates for each phase in sequential order. All gates start in unapproved state.

pub fn approve_phase( session: &mut SpecWritingSession, approver: &str, feedback: Option<String>, ) -> Result<(), SpecError>

Approves the current phase in a session

Records approval with timestamp and approver information. Returns error if phase is already approved or if session is invalid.

Arguments

• session - The spec writing session to approve
• approver - Name of the person approving
• feedback - Optional feedback on the phase

Returns

Updated session with approval recorded, or error if approval fails

pub fn transition_to_next_phase( session: &mut SpecWritingSession, ) -> Result<(), SpecError>

Transitions to the next phase if current phase is approved

Enforces sequential phase progression. Only allows transition to the next phase if the current phase has been explicitly approved.

Arguments

• session - The spec writing session

Returns

Updated session with new phase, or error if transition is not allowed

pub fn can_transition(session: &SpecWritingSession) -> bool

Checks if a phase transition is allowed

Returns true if the current phase is approved and the next phase exists.

pub fn get_phase_approval( session: &SpecWritingSession, phase: SpecPhase, ) -> Option<&ApprovalGate>

Gets the approval status for a specific phase

Returns the approval gate for the given phase, or None if not found.

pub fn get_all_approvals(session: &SpecWritingSession) -> &[ApprovalGate]

Gets all approval gates for a session

pub fn are_phases_approved_up_to( session: &SpecWritingSession, target_phase: SpecPhase, ) -> bool

Checks if all phases up to and including the given phase are approved

Useful for validating that a session has completed all required phases.
