SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires plan-confidence, and includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

The Implement skill orchestrates an autonomous, TDD-driven halt-loop to deliver cycle-implement workflows from knowledge-base/plans, ensuring an auditable path from plan to production-ready code.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automates the Plan → Code workflow via a deterministic RED/GREEN/REFACTOR cycle with integrated gating (parsimony, SOLID, DRY, and Design Patterns).
  • Coordinates a three-pillar Wiring triad (static caller, integration test, and runtime metric) plus a SEPA interlock for external review.
  • Provides a structured HALT-LOOP workflow for Step 2–Step 5, including a Phase Boundary mini-review when a phase completes.

Quick Start

Invoke /implement {plan-slug} to start the halt-loop and drive all tasks to committed state.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate test-driven development workflows from a project plan?

Automating test-driven development workflows requires orchestrating a deterministic RED/GREEN/REFACTOR halt-loop that drives plan tasks to a committed state. This process coordinates code cycles, integration tests, and final validation gates to ensure quality and traceability.

What is a halt-loop in autonomous code implementation?

A halt-loop in autonomous code implementation is a structured workflow that iterates through development phases, surfacing blockers and enforcing phase boundary mini-reviews until a final validation gate passes. It ensures continuous quality enforcement during the plan-to-code transition.

How do I enforce conventional commits and branch discipline during autonomous implementation?

To enforce conventional commits and branch discipline during autonomous implementation, the workflow mandates working strictly on the develop branch. It coordinates the implementation cycle to ensure all code changes are committed with conventional discipline.

Does autonomous plan implementation require external code reviews?

Yes, autonomous plan implementation integrates a SEPA interlock for external review. It coordinates this review alongside a three-pillar wiring triad—static caller checks, integration tests, and runtime metrics—to validate the implementation before passing the final gate.

How do I validate wiring and integration when implementing a plan autonomously?

Validating wiring and integration relies on a three-pillar Wiring triad consisting of a static caller check, an integration test, and a runtime metric. This triad is coordinated during the halt-loop to verify external connections and system behavior.

What are the limitations of using a halt-loop for TDD-driven implementation?

The primary limitation of a TDD-driven halt-loop is its strict dependency on predefined plans and the develop branch. It cannot bypass the SEPA interlock or validation gates, meaning any unresolved blockers will intentionally halt the autonomous workflow until manually addressed.
