Implement Specification

Implement the specification at: $ARGUMENTS

!claudekit status stm

Pre-Execution Checks

1. **Check Task Management**:

  • If STM shows "Available but not initialized" → Run `stm init` first, then `/spec:decompose` to create tasks
  • If STM shows "Available and initialized" → Use STM for tasks
  • If STM shows "Not installed" → Use TodoWrite instead

2. **Verify Specification**:

  • Confirm spec file exists and is complete
  • Check that required tools are available
  • Stop if anything is missing or unclear

Implementation Process

1. Analyze Specification

Read the specification to understand:

  • What components need to be built
  • Dependencies between components
  • Testing requirements
  • Success criteria

2. Load or Create Tasks

**Using STM** (if available):

stm list --status pending -f json

**Using TodoWrite** (fallback): Create tasks for each component in the specification

3. Implementation Workflow

For each task, follow this cycle:

**Available Agents:** !`claudekit list agents`

Step 1: Implement

Launch appropriate specialist agent:

Task tool:
- description: "Implement [component name]"  
- subagent_type: [choose specialist that matches the task]
- prompt: |
    First run: stm show [task-id]
    This will give you the full task details and requirements.
    
    Then implement the component based on those requirements.
    Follow project code style and add error handling.
    Report back when complete.

Step 2: Write Tests

Launch testing expert:

Task tool:
- description: "Write tests for [component]"
- subagent_type: testing-expert [or jest/vitest-testing-expert]
- prompt: |
    First run: stm show [task-id]
    
    Write comprehensive tests for the implemented component.
    Cover edge cases and aim for >80% coverage.
    Report back when complete.

Then run tests to verify they pass.

Step 3: Code Review (Required)

**Important:** Always run code review to verify both quality AND completeness. Task cannot be marked done without passing both.

Launch code review expert:

Task tool:
- description: "Review [component]"
- subagent_type: code-review-expert
- prompt: |
    First run: stm show [task-id]
    
    Review implementation for BOTH:
    1. COMPLETENESS - Are all requirements from the task fully implemented?
    2. QUALITY - Code quality, security, error handling, test coverage
    
    Categorize any issues as: CRITICAL, IMPORTANT, or MINOR.
    Report if implementation is COMPLETE or INCOMPLETE.
    Report back with findings.

Step 4: Fix Issues & Complete Implementation

If code review found the implementation INCOMPLETE or has CRITICAL issues:

1. Launch specialist to complete/fix:

   Task tool:
   - description: "Complete/fix [component]"
   - subagent_type: [specialist matching the task]
   - prompt: |
       First run: stm show [task-id]
       
       Address these items from code review:
       - Missing requirements: [list any incomplete items]
       - Critical issues: [list any critical issues]
       
       Update tests if needed.
       Report back when complete.

2. Re-run tests to verify fixes

3. Re-review to confirm both COMPLETE and quality standards met

4. Only when implementation is COMPLETE and all critical issues fixed:

  • If using STM: `stm update [task-id] --status done`
  • If using TodoWrite: Mark task as completed

Step 5: Commit Changes

Create atomic commit following project conventions:

git add [files]
git commit -m "[follow project's commit convention]"

4. Track Progress

Monitor implementation progress:

**Using STM:**

stm list --pretty              # View all tasks
stm list --status pending      # Pending tasks
stm list --status in-progress  # Active tasks
stm list --status done         # Completed tasks

**Using TodoWrite:** Track tasks in the session with status indicators.

5. Complete Implementation

Implementation is complete when:

  • All tasks are COMPLETE (all requirements implemented)
  • All tasks pass quality review (no critical issues)
  • All tests passing
  • Documentation updated

If Issues Arise

If any agent encounters problems: 1. Identify the specific issue 2. Launch appropriate specialist to resolve 3. Or request user assistance if blocked
