implement

Summary

This skill instructs an agent to implement work described in specs or tickets using TDD practices. It delegates to other skills (/tdd and /code-review) for specific implementation and review tasks, runs type checking and tests throughout, and commits the work to the current branch when complete.

Use Cases

• Implement feature requirements from a ticket or spec
• Build new functionality with test-driven development
• Complete a defined work item with proper verification
• Implement code changes with built-in quality gates (type checking, testing, review)

Quality Notes

• Very lightweight skill with minimal prescriptive detail — it reads as a workflow orchestrator rather than a complete implementation guide
• Assumes user understands TDD and has agreed seams defined; no onboarding or fallback guidance
• Delegates core logic to /tdd and /code-review skills — content is incomplete without those skills being available
• No error handling guidance (e.g., what if tests fail? what if type checking reveals errors?)
• No examples of what 'pre-agreed seams' means or how to recognize them
• Scope is clear (current branch only) but purpose-driven rather than technically rigorous
• No edge cases addressed (large specs, ambiguous requirements, merge conflicts)
• Commit instruction lacks detail — should specify branch, message format, what to commit
