Implement

Objective

• Apply the approved change precisely.
• Minimize blast radius and keep behavior aligned to requirements.

When to use

• Requirements or spec are clear and approved.
• A behavior change is expected.

Inputs

• User instructions, spec, and acceptance criteria.
• AGENTS.md, rules, and relevant code/tests.
• Any clarifications already answered.

Process

1. Confirm scope and acceptance criteria; note exclusions.
2. Plan minimal changes; avoid refactors outside scope.
3. Implement with small, focused edits.
4. Update/add tests if behavior changes.
5. Self-review for correctness and unintended impact.

Outputs

• Files changed and intent.
• Notes on tests added/updated.
• Any residual risks or follow-ups.

Edge cases

• If scope is unclear, pause and ask before coding.
• Avoid drive-by refactors; defer to refactor skill if needed.
