Implement Feature Skill

> !IMPORTANT] > Implement an approved feature plan with fresh-context slices, TDD, evidence, and PR-ready output.

Optional args: slug=<feature>, ticket=<id/url>, mode=interactive|autonomous|channel, channel=<id>, auto_continue=true|false, profile=business|hybrid|technical.

Instructions

When the user asks to perform this workflow, execute the following steps:

Implement Feature Workflow

Goal: Build an approved feature through TDD slices and route completed work to verification.

Steps

1. Load plan:

• Search docs/prd/ and docs/srs/ for a matching [slug]; if absent, use the newest matching artifact.
• If multiple candidates exist, ask the user to choose or input the target slug.
• PRD or ticket
• SRS/FRS technical design if present
• Implementation plan
• Matched framework and common skills
• If stable REQ-*, AC-*, trace, or required SRS/test lanes are missing, stop and route to plan-feature, design-solution, or implementation-readiness.

1. Prepare workspace:

• Confirm clean or intentionally dirty git state.
• Create branch or worktree only when project workflow expects it.
• Initialize or update docs/srs/srs-task-list.md with small vertical slices.

1. Implement slices:

• For each slice, write or update the failing test first.
• Consume the named REQ-* and AC-* for each slice; do not invent scope from code inspection.
• Do not keep pre-test implementation code as "reference".
• Implement the smallest passing code.
• Refactor without expanding scope.
• Keep slice evidence near the task item.
• Use sub-agents only when the runtime supports them and ownership is disjoint.
• If a fix path is unclear, stop and apply root-cause debugging before more code changes.

1. Maintain context hygiene:

• Start fresh context for large independent slices when possible.
• Preserve decisions in docs/srs/srs-task-list.md or docs/prd/prd-plan-[slug].md.
• If behavior or scope changes, update docs/prd/prd-[slug].md and docs/srs/srs-[slug].md before closing the slice.
• Avoid carrying raw logs; summarize failures and fixes.

1. Prepare handoff:

• Run fresh local automated checks before claiming success.
• Update requirement trace notes for changed AC coverage.
• Capture evidence in docs/srs/srs-walkthrough.md.
• For autonomous/channel mode, delegate only with disjoint files, owner, AC IDs, expected artifact, and verification command.
• Route next step to verify-work.

Runtime Contract

• Use for approved plans ready to build; failing test first, no pre-test implementation kept as reference.
• Required inputs: PRD/ticket with stable REQ-*/AC-* trace and required SRS/test lanes.
• Return BLOCKED only when required trace, owner, or test lanes are missing.

Handoff Payload

• slug, operator_profile (carried, not re-inferred), completed slices, tests run, changed contracts, delegation packets, outcome report, next workflow.

Blocking Questions

• Ask max 3 at a time with a recommended default and 2-3 options.
