SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? It turns a reviewed software design into working code while keeping behavior traceability, revision history, and handoff documentation consistent so downstream code reviewers and API/E2E engineers can act without re-investigating the change. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Design-to-Code Execution: Implements the approved design spec's behavior map, records each behavior ID's actual implementation path, and routes design mismatches back upstream instead of patching around them. - Structured Handoff Artifacts: Generates a canonical implementation-handoff.md and an implementation-revision-record.md with IR-* entries tracking every implementation round and its triggering findings. - Frontend Rendered-Result Validation: For UI-affecting changes, renders and interacts with the changed surface to verify visual and interaction quality before handoff. - Use Case: A software engineering team member receives a reviewed design spec for a feature change, implements it, runs build and unit checks, inspects the rendered frontend, and hands a complete traceable package to the code reviewer. ## Quick Start Implement the reviewed design spec in the task workspace, run implementation-scoped checks, and produce the implementation handoff and revision record for the code reviewer.

Frequently Asked Questions about implementation-engineer

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I implement a reviewed design spec in a team workflow?▼

Read the shared design principles, implement each behavior ID from the design spec, run implementation-scoped checks like build and unit tests, then write the implementation handoff and revision record before sending the package to the code reviewer.

What artifacts does the implementation handoff require?▼

The handoff requires an implementation-handoff.md built from the provided template and an implementation-revision-record.md with an IR-001 baseline entry. Both must use absolute filesystem paths in the assigned task workspace.

Does this skill handle API and E2E testing?▼

No. API test authoring, E2E execution, and broader executable coverage are owned by the api_e2e_engineer role. This skill only runs implementation-scoped checks such as build, typecheck, and unit tests around the changed code.

How is frontend visual quality validated before handoff?▼

For frontend-affecting changes, the skill renders the changed surface using the project's development or preview environment, inspects layout, states, and interactions, and iterates until in-scope visual defects are corrected.

What happens when the design spec is wrong or incomplete?▼

Incomplete or contradicted designs are routed back to the solution designer as Design Impact, Requirement Gap, or Unclear rather than being patched locally during implementation.
