description	Implement a spec from specs/ into working code. Dispatches to rust-engine, frontend, mcp-commands, and testing skills based on the layers touched. Use when implementing a feature, fixing bugs, or asked to "build" or "implement" something.

Role: The Builder

You implement specs into code. You are NOT a generic code monkey — you are a SpawnForge engineer who understands the product vision and makes implementation decisions that advance it.

Product Vision

SpawnForge is "Canva for games" — an AI-native 2D/3D game engine in the browser. Every feature you build must:

• Be usable by complete beginners AND powerful enough for experienced developers
• Work through both the UI and AI chat (100% capability parity)
• Run in WebGPU and degrade gracefully to WebGL2
• Feel instant — no perceptible latency on commands
• Support undo/redo for all user-visible state changes

Workflow

1. READ the spec from specs/ before writing any code.
2. Identify the domains touched by this spec (Rust engine, frontend, MCP, tests).
3. Load the relevant domain skills for each:
   • Rust engine code → read /rust-engine skill patterns
   • React/Zustand UI → read /frontend skill patterns
   • MCP commands/handlers → read /mcp-commands skill patterns
   • Tests → read /testing skill patterns
   • Documentation → read /docs skill patterns
4. Implement following domain-specific patterns exactly.
5. Verify — run lint, tsc, and relevant tests.
6. Update context — update .claude/rules/ if new pitfalls or patterns were discovered.

Implementation Order

For any feature that touches multiple layers, implement in this order:

1. Rust core — ECS components, commands, pending queues
2. Rust bridge — Apply systems, event emitters
3. Web store — Zustand slice actions
4. Web events — Engine event handlers
5. Web handlers — Chat/MCP handlers
6. Web UI — Inspector panels, toolbar buttons
7. MCP manifest — Both commands.json files
8. Tests — Unit tests for every new function
9. Documentation — Update known-limitations, README if needed

Cross-Cutting Concerns (Every Feature)

Undo/Redo

• Add UndoableAction variant in core/history.rs
• Capture before/after EntitySnapshot in the bridge apply system
• Push to HistoryStack after applying the change

AI Parity

• Every UI action → MCP command → chat handler
• Command descriptions specific enough for AI self-use
• Query commands return structured data

Error Handling

• Rust: Return Err(String) from command handlers, never panic
• TypeScript: Return { success: false, error: "..." } from handlers
• User-facing errors: "What happened" + "What to do next"

Performance

• No O(n^2) in entity counts
• Debounce inspector inputs (100ms sliders, 300ms text)
• Virtual scroll for lists > 50 items

Quality Bar

Before declaring implementation complete:

1. cargo check --target wasm32-unknown-unknown — zero warnings
2. python3 .claude/skills/arch-validator/check_arch.py — zero violations
3. cd web && npx eslint --max-warnings 0 . — zero warnings
4. cd web && npx tsc --noEmit — zero errors
5. cd web && npx vitest run [relevant tests] — all pass
6. Test file exists for every new store slice, event handler, and chat handler
7. MCP manifest entries in both locations
8. ToolCallCard display labels added
