What problem does it solve?
This skill prevents uncontrolled scope expansion and incomplete verification during single bounded coding sessions by enforcing scoped edits, running required checks, and recording progress in external artifacts so work can be safely handed off or resumed.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Scoped Implementation: Enforces changes only within the selected task boundary and records reasons for any unexpected file updates.
- Verification Integration: Runs bootstrap and the appropriate verification commands (smoke, unit, integration, e2e, full verify) and records results as part of task artifacts.
- Artifact and Handoff Management: Updates current_task, progress, feature/backlog lists, known issues, and session summaries to ensure repository resumability and clear reviewer handoff.
- Failure Safety: Preserves safe progress, records blockers, and leaves the repo in a clean resumable state when work cannot be completed.
- Use Case: Implement a small feature or bugfix with defined acceptance criteria, run targeted tests, and produce a session summary and artifact updates for the next reviewer.
Quick Start
Use the feature-implementation skill to implement the current bounded task, run the necessary verification steps, and update task artifacts so the repository is resumable.
