SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? It gives a coder subagent a disciplined, repeatable procedure for executing a coding task from a self-contained handoff document, preventing scope creep, upstream-doc drift, untested work, and unreported deviations. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Handoff-driven implementation: Reads a task-handoff document end-to-end and implements its contracts, file targets, steps, and acceptance criteria exactly as written. - Corrective cycle self-mediation: Adjudicates reviewer findings one by one, fixing real defects or disputing false ones with file:line evidence, recorded under Coder Dispositions. - Testing and commit discipline: Runs scoped validation passes, commits only when directed, and reports per-repo commit hash and push status. - Escalation channels: Appends non-halting Execution Notes to the handoff, or returns a structured Blocked report when it cannot proceed honestly. - Use Case: An orchestrator spawns a coder agent with a handoff path; the agent implements the change, runs the relevant tests, commits and pushes, and reports the commit hash for downstream review. ## Quick Start Assign this skill to a rad-orc:coder agent and provide the path to the task-handoff document so it implements, tests, and commits the described change.

FAQPage Schema
How do I execute a coding task from a handoff document?▼

Read the handoff document end-to-end first, then implement its steps in order against the inlined contracts and file targets. Run the relevant scoped tests, self-review the diff, commit when directed, and report source, tests, and commit hash.

How should a coder agent handle reviewer findings on a corrective cycle?▼

Judge each finding adversarially: fix genuine defects in code, or dispute false ones with file:line evidence. Record a fixed or disputed disposition for every finding under Coder Dispositions in the review report, and commit only if code changed.

Can the coder agent read upstream planning or requirements documents?▼

No. The handoff is self-contained and inlines everything needed, so reading upstream specs, plans, or architecture docs is prohibited to avoid scoping issues. The only exception is the downstream review report on corrective cycles.

What happens when the coding task cannot be completed honestly?▼

The agent returns a Blocked report instead of a fake completion, stating severity, the specific blocker, what was tried, and what decision is needed. The orchestrator then triages the escalation.

When should the agent commit and push its changes?▼

Only when the spawn prompt directs a commit. It commits following the rad-source-control commit reference, pushes only if the worktree has a remote, and reports the commit hash and push status per repo.
