What problem does it solve?
This Skill eliminates inconsistent implementation workflows, skipped test-driven development (TDD) practices, and missing quality validation that lead to buggy, unmaintainable code and failed phase deliveries.
Core Features & Use Cases
- TDD Enforcement: Mandates a write-test-first workflow for all testable implementation tasks, with an automated advisory hook that alerts when source files are modified without recent test changes.
- Mandatory Phase Gates: Runs build, test, lint, and deployment health checks after every implementation phase, requiring all gates to pass before creating an atomic commit and proceeding to the next phase.
- Flexible Execution Modes: Supports classic phase-by-phase execution, DAG-based parallel wave execution for faster parallel task processing, and automatic conversion of plan-mode artifacts to MAD implementation specifications.
- Use Case: Use this Skill to implement a new .NET feature end-to-end, ensuring every task follows TDD requirements, all quality gates pass before phase commits, and parallel tasks are orchestrated correctly via DAG mode if enabled.
Quick Start
Invoke the mad-implement skill to execute your current implementation plan, automatically enforcing TDD workflows and running mandatory quality gates after each phase.
