Implement Skill

Structured workflow for implementing features or tasks with documentation and human validation checkpoints.

Usage

/implement <what to implement>

Workflow

Phase 1: Documentation

Review ./docs and determine what needs to be created or updated for this task:

• Architecture decisions relevant to the change
• Feature documentation
• Technology or dependency notes

Skip any documentation that is not necessary for this task. Keep it concise and useful.

Phase 2: Human Validation — Documentation

Present a summary of what was documented (or skipped and why). Ask the user:

"Does the documentation look sufficient to proceed with implementation?"

Wait for explicit approval before continuing.

Phase 3: Investigation

With the documentation as context, investigate the codebase:

• Read relevant files
• Understand existing patterns, conventions, and architecture
• Identify exactly what needs to change (files, functions, data structures)
• Note any risks or constraints

Summarize findings and the planned approach.

Phase 4: Implementation

Implement the task based on the investigation:

• Follow existing code patterns and conventions
• Make only the changes necessary for the task
• Do not refactor unrelated code or add unrequested features

Phase 5: Human Validation — Implementation

Present what was changed and how it addresses the task. Ask the user:

"Does the implementation look correct? Anything to adjust?"

Wait for explicit approval before continuing.

Phase 6: Worklog

Write a worklog entry in ./docs/worklog/. Use the filename format YYYY-MM-DD-<short-slug>.md.

Include:

• Date
• Task description (the $ARGUMENT)
• What was investigated
• What was changed and why
• Any decisions or trade-offs made
