What problem does it solve?
This Skill automates carrying out a project's implementation plan by reading a tasks.md execution plan, verifying prerequisites, and running the specified tasks so maintainers do not have to manually orchestrate multi-step implementations.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Orchestrated Task Execution: Parses tasks.md and plan.md, enforces phase order, dependencies, and parallel markers to run tasks reliably.
- Project Verification & Setup: Runs prerequisite scripts, verifies checklists, ensures ignore files, and validates project setup before implementation.
- Hooks & Progress Tracking: Detects pre/post extension hooks, reports progress, marks completed tasks in the tasks file, and halts on critical failures.
- Use Case: Apply this to a spec-kit repository to automate setup, test-driven development tasks, integration steps, and final validation across multiple phases.
Quick Start
Run the speckit-implement skill with optional guidance to process tasks.md and execute the implementation plan.
