## [0.1.0] - 2026-08-04
Initial release.
### Added
- `Starter.Workflow``use Starter.Workflow` turns a module into a runnable,
flag-aware Igniter setup task
- Workflow step forms: built-in steps (`{:add, :oban}`), optional steps
(`if: :flag`), arbitrary Mix tasks (`{:task, name, argv}`), nested workflows
(`{:workflow, Module}`), and custom step modules
- `mix starter.new` — generates a self-documenting, editable workflow in your
project. Every step carries a description rendered from its module's
`@shortdoc`, so the file cannot drift from the catalog
- `mix starter.run` — finds and runs your project's workflow, passing flags
through (equivalent to invoking the workflow task directly)
- `mix starter.add`, `mix starter.remove`, `mix starter.gen` — run steps
individually, with `--list`
- `{:install, :package}` step form: packages that ship their own Igniter
installer (oban, oban_web, tidewave, ash, …) are installed by their own
installer via `mix igniter.install`; Starter ships no competing step for
them. Built-in add steps exist only where upstream ships no installer.
- `{:queue, task, argv}` step form: queue any Mix task to run after the
workflow's changes apply, in order — the way to sequence work after
`{:install, ...}` steps (e.g. `oban_pro` after `{:install, :oban}`)
- `mix starter.new --from SomeShared.Workflow` — generate the app's workflow
by expanding a shared workflow module (e.g. from a personal step pack)
instead of the built-in catalog
- Step catalog: 11 add steps, 5 remove steps, 12 gen steps (see README)
- Latest-Phoenix-only support policy: steps target current `phx.new` output
(Phoenix 1.8); workflows warn when run against apps on older Phoenix versions
- Remove/gen steps warn loudly when they find nothing to change instead of
silently no-oping
- Version lookups (Hex, npm, GitHub, and the Oban Pro docs site for the
private-repo `oban_pro` package) keep generated dependencies current and
degrade gracefully offline
- Test suite built on `Igniter.Test`; CI golden test runs the generated
workflow against a freshly generated `phx.new` app
