SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

The Worker Skill provides a disciplined execution agent that implements an approved deliverable's SPEC and PLAN, preserving truth about progress and blockers in the repository or board.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Executes the approved SPEC and PLAN in sequence with a TDD-driven development approach and clear escalation when requirements are unclear.
  • Reads AGENTS.md to apply the repo's coordination rules and adjusts behavior for skills-assisted or service-assisted modes.
  • Keeps execution state in sync with the repo workflow, including blockers, notes, and completion status; supports coordination tooling as declared in AGENTS.md.

Quick Start

Instruct the Worker to execute the approved SPEC and PLAN from the active worktree using TDD and report blockers clearly.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate the execution of approved deliverables using TDD?

Automating deliverable execution with TDD requires an agent that reads your SPEC and PLAN, implements tests first, and tracks progress within a single worktree. This skill enforces that sequence and escalates blockers when requirements are unclear.

How does test-driven development workflow coordination work with AGENTS.md?

Coordination with AGENTS.md works by reading repository-specific rules to manage shared-file access and adapt execution modes. The agent applies these coordination rules while implementing the approved plan to ensure proper dependency edges and state synchronization.

Can I use a single worktree to execute an approved plan and track blockers?

Yes, you can execute an approved plan within a single worktree for one active deliverable. The agent keeps execution state, including blockers and notes, in sync with the repository workflow and updates completion status accordingly.

What is the best way to handle unclear requirements during deliverable execution?

The best way to handle unclear requirements is through disciplined escalation. When the contract is unclear, the agent stops and escalates the blocker rather than guessing, preserving truth about progress in the board or repository.

Does the workflow agent support skills-assisted and service-assisted execution modes?

Yes, the agent adapts to both skills-assisted and service-assisted modes as declared in AGENTS.md. It adjusts behavior based on the repository's coordination rules to ensure proper execution and dependency management.

When should I not use an automated TDD execution agent for deliverables?

You should not use an automated TDD execution agent when the approved SPEC and PLAN are incomplete or missing required DEPENDS_ON edges. The agent requires clear contracts and existing dependency structures to execute properly without escalating.
