implementer
Execute feature tasks one by one with live documentation and context logging. Triggers on "Execute FEAT-XXX tasks", "Start implementing FEAT-XXX", "Work on FEAT-XXX", "Continue FEAT-XXX".
Best use case
implementer is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.
Execute feature tasks one by one with live documentation and context logging. Triggers on "Execute FEAT-XXX tasks", "Start implementing FEAT-XXX", "Work on FEAT-XXX", "Continue FEAT-XXX".
Teams using implementer should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.
When to use this skill
- You want a reusable workflow that can be run more than once with consistent structure.
When not to use this skill
- You only need a quick one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.
- You cannot install or maintain the underlying files, dependencies, or repository context.

# Implementer Execute feature tasks one by one with live documentation and context updates. ## Triggers - "Execute FEAT-XXX tasks" - "Start implementing FEAT-XXX" - "Work on FEAT-XXX" - "Continue FEAT-XXX" - "Resume FEAT-XXX" - "Next task for FEAT-XXX" ## Prerequisites - Feature folder exists with completed: - `spec.md` - `analysis.md` - `design.md` - `tasks.md` - `context/` folder with templates - Git branch created for feature - If missing: guide user to complete previous phases ## Purpose 1. **Find next uncompleted task** in tasks.md 2. **Execute task** (write code, create files, etc.) 3. **Update documentation** in real-time 4. **Update context** (session_log, decisions, blockers) 5. **Commit** after each task 6. **Repeat** until all tasks done or blocker hit ## Process ### 1. Read Context ```bash # Read tasks cat docs/features/FEAT-XXX/tasks.md # Read design for reference cat docs/features/FEAT-XXX/design.md # Read spec for requirements cat docs/features/FEAT-XXX/spec.md # Check current status cat docs/features/FEAT-XXX/status.md # Read last session log entries tail -30 docs/features/FEAT-XXX/context/session_log.md # Check for active blockers cat docs/features/FEAT-XXX/context/blockers.md # Verify git branch git branch --show-current ``` ### 2. Verify Branch If on main/master: -> STOP and say: "Create feature branch first: git checkout -b feature/XXX-name" If on correct feature branch: -> Continue with implementation ### 3. Find Next Task Scan tasks.md for first task that is: - `[ ]` Pending, OR - `[in progress]` In Progress (resume) Skip tasks that are: - `[x]` Complete - `[skipped]` Skipped - `[blocked]` Blocked ### 4. Execute Task Loop For each task: **A. BEFORE starting:** 1. Update tasks.md: [ ] -> [in progress] 2. Announce: "Starting task: [task description]" **B. DURING execution:** 1. Write code / create files 2. Follow design.md specifications 3. If unclear -> ask user, don't assume 4. If blocked -> mark [blocked], log to blockers.md, move to next 5. If decision needed -> log to decisions.md **C. AFTER completing:** 1. Update tasks.md: [in progress] -> [x] 2. Update progress table in tasks.md 3. Commit: git add . && git commit -m "FEAT-XXX: [task]" 4. Announce: "Task complete. Progress: X/Y tasks" **D. CHECKPOINT (every 30 min or 3 tasks):** 1. Update status.md with progress 2. Update context/session_log.md 3. git push origin [branch] 4. Summary of progress ### 5. Commit Format ```bash git add [specific files for this task] git commit -m "FEAT-XXX: [Task description]" ``` **Examples:** ``` FEAT-001: Create User model FEAT-001: Add user validation schemas FEAT-001: Implement UserService CRUD methods FEAT-001: Add POST /users endpoint FEAT-001: Add unit tests for UserService ``` ### 6. Completion When all tasks done: ``` FEAT-XXX implementation complete! Summary: - Total tasks: X - Completed: X - Skipped: X - Blocked: X Next steps: 1. Push: git push -u origin feature/XXX-name 2. Create PR: /git pr 3. After merge: /wrap-up FEAT-XXX ```
