spok

end-to-end problem validation → research → design → plan → implement → review → commit workflow for a single chunk, with an optional post-commit self-learn gate. Driven by spok-apply.

Produce an advisory post-commit review of workflow friction, issues, weak evidence, and improvement opportunities for a completed Spok flow chunk.

first step of planning

convert structure outline into a detailed implementation plan

generate research questions based on a task, spec, or ticket

research the codebase

create a phased implementation plan based on research and design decisions

validate an implementation against a task plan and current code. use this when given a plan path from a task directory or when asked to verify implemented work before review or PR

optional first step when fixing, optimizing, or improving existing behavior - reproduce the bug or measure the baseline and capture empirical evidence before codebase research; skips as N/A for brand-new work with no existing behavior to validate.

phased implementation of a structured plan you must use this skill when asked to implement a plan file in a task directory
