conductor-implement

name	conductor-implement
description	Executes the tasks defined in a specified track's plan. Use when the user wants to start or continue implementing a feature or bug fix. This skill manages the task lifecycle, adheres to the project's workflow, synchronizes project documentation upon completion, and offers track cleanup options.

Conductor Implement

Overview

This skill is the "engine" of the Conductor framework. It takes the approved plan.md and works through it task-by-task, ensuring that every piece of code is tested, documented, and committed according to the project's standards. After implementation, it synchronizes project-level documentation and offers cleanup options for the completed track.

When to Use

• When a user says "Start implementing," "Do the next task," or "Continue working on track X."
• After a track has been initialized and planned.

Workflow

1. Setup Check: Verify the Conductor environment is properly set up (Product Definition, Tech Stack, Workflow must exist).
2. Track Selection: Identify the track to implement from the Tracks Registry. Parse tracks using --- separator. Support user-provided track name with exact matching. Confirm selection using ask_user.
3. Context Loading: Load the track's spec and plan, and the project's workflow.
4. Task Execution: Loop through tasks in the plan. Update status markers ([ ] → [~] → [x]). Defer to the project's workflow.md as the single source of truth for implementation, testing, and committing.
5. Documentation Synchronization: Once all tasks are done, synchronize the project-level documentation (product.md, tech-stack.md, product-guidelines.md) with the new changes after user approval via ask_user with embedded diffs.
6. Track Cleanup: Offer choices to Review, Archive, Delete, or Skip the completed track.

Implementation Details

Refer to the following protocols for detailed procedural instructions:

• Resolution Protocol: references/resolution-protocol.md - How to find Conductor artifacts.
• Implementation Protocol: references/implementation-protocol.md - The logic for track selection and execution.
• Synchronization Protocol: references/synchronization.md - How to update project context after completion and offer track cleanup.

Mandatory Constraints

• Workflow is Law: The workflow.md file in the project is the single source of truth for how tasks are implemented.
• Interactive Validation: Every human-in-the-loop interaction or confirmation mentioned in the workflow MUST use the ask_user tool.
• Confirmation for Sync: NEVER update product.md, tech-stack.md, or product-guidelines.md without explicit user approval of a proposed diff. Product Guidelines updates are strictly controlled and ONLY proposed for significant strategic shifts (rebranding, core identity changes).
• Track Cleanup: After synchronization, always offer the user cleanup options (Review/Archive/Delete/Skip) via ask_user. Delete requires a second confirmation.
• Success Validation: Validate every tool call. Halt on failure.
