SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps teams implement tasks reliably by enforcing a structured plan, validating acceptance criteria, and tracking progress to completion.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Plan-driven execution: Follow a predefined implementation plan step-by-step.
  • AC validation after work: Check acceptance criteria only after completing work to ensure quality.
  • Progress tracking: Start, monitor, and stop timers; record notes and status updates.
  • Use Case: A developer is assigned a task with ACs; they use kn-implement to drive the work and ensure completion meets all criteria.

Quick Start

Start a task by reviewing its plan, executing each step, and validating all acceptance criteria after work. Update the task with progress notes, toggle the timer, and stop it when work is complete. Mark the task as done once all criteria are satisfied.

FAQPage Schema
How do I validate acceptance criteria after implementing a task?

To validate acceptance criteria, execute the predefined plan steps first, then run explicit AC checks to ensure the work meets all requirements before marking the task complete.

What is plan-driven task implementation and how does it work?

Plan-driven task implementation enforces structured execution by reviewing a task plan, executing each step sequentially, tracking progress with timers, and validating acceptance criteria upon completion.

How do I track progress and manage scope changes during task implementation?

Track progress by starting and stopping timers, recording status notes, and handling scope changes within the workflow to ensure implementation remains aligned with the original plan.

Can I use structured task management for verifying acceptance criteria?

Yes, structured task management enforces explicit acceptance criteria validation after work completion, ensuring developers satisfy all requirements before marking a task as done.

Do I need a predefined implementation plan to start a development task?

Yes, a predefined implementation plan is required to drive step-by-step execution, validate acceptance criteria, and report progress within the task management workflow.

What's the best way to ensure task completion meets all acceptance criteria?

The best way is following a plan-driven workflow that executes steps sequentially, validates acceptance criteria after work, tracks progress with timers, and confirms completion before marking done.
