SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This skill solves the problem of chaotic, uncoordinated implementation sessions by enforcing a strict, plan-first execution model that ensures every change is intentional, verified, and documented.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Plan-First Enforcement: Requires a step-by-step plan and explicit user approval before any file modification occurs.
  • Incremental Execution: Manages branching, commit-by-commit implementation, and test-alongside workflows to maintain a clean, reviewable history.
  • Cross-Skill Integration: Automatically handles prompt preparation, ADR linkage, and evaluation summary generation to maintain continuity across the entire project lifecycle.

Quick Start

Invoke the claude-issue-executor skill by providing the issue number to begin a disciplined implementation session for that task.

FAQPage Schema
How do I enforce a plan-first workflow for GitHub issue implementation?

A plan-first workflow for GitHub issue implementation requires a system that mandates explicit user approval of a step-by-step plan before any file modifications occur. This approach ensures changes remain intentional and fully documented.

What is incremental commit execution and how does it help GitHub issue resolution?

Incremental commit execution manages branching and commit-by-commit implementation for GitHub issues. It maintains a clean, reviewable history by pairing each change with test-alongside workflows to verify execution continuously.

How do I align GitHub issue implementations with governing ADRs?

Aligning GitHub issue implementations with governing ADRs requires operating on prepared prompt files that validate execution against project requirements. This ensures the final code changes maintain continuity with architectural decisions.

Does automated branch-based execution work without a pre-approved plan?

Automated branch-based execution does not work without a pre-approved plan. The workflow strictly requires a step-by-step plan and explicit user approval before initiating any file modifications or branching actions.

What is the best way to automate test-alongside protocols during code implementation?

The best way to automate test-alongside protocols during code implementation is to use a workflow that validates execution incrementally. This generates structured evaluation summaries for downstream PR packaging while maintaining test integrity.

Can I use automated implementation sessions for chaotic, uncoordinated development tasks?

You can use automated implementation sessions for chaotic development tasks by applying a strict execution model. This enforces branching, incremental commits, and plan-first validation to transform disorganized changes into verified, reviewable history.
