SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Turning a written task breakdown into working code requires manually tracking phases, dependencies, and checklist gates. This Skill automates that execution loop inside a spec-kit project, reading tasks.md and plan.md and driving implementation phase by phase. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Task Plan Execution: Parses tasks.md for phases, dependencies, and parallel [P] markers, then executes tasks in the correct order with TDD sequencing. - Checklist Gating: Scans FEATURE_DIR/checklists/ before implementation, reports completion status, and halts for confirmation when items are incomplete. - Project Setup Verification: Detects the tech stack from plan.md and creates or verifies ignore files (.gitignore, .dockerignore, .eslintignore, and others) with technology-appropriate patterns. - Extension Hooks: Reads .specify/extensions.yml and dispatches before_implement and after_implement hooks, honoring enabled, optional, and condition fields. - Use Case: After running /speckit-tasks to generate a task list, invoke this Skill to implement the entire feature, marking each completed task as [X] in tasks.md and reporting progress per phase. ## Quick Start Run the speckit-implement skill to execute all tasks in tasks.md for the current feature.

Frequently Asked Questions about speckit-implement

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I execute a tasks.md implementation plan automatically?▼

Run the speckit-implement skill in a spec-kit project. It reads tasks.md and plan.md, executes tasks phase by phase respecting dependencies and parallel [P] markers, and marks each finished task as [X] in the tasks file.

What project structure does speckit-implement require?▼

It requires a spec-kit project with a .specify/ directory and a feature directory containing tasks.md and plan.md. Optional files like data-model.md, contracts/, research.md, and quickstart.md are read when present.

What happens if checklists are incomplete before implementation?▼

The skill scans all files in the checklists/ directory, counts completed and incomplete items, and displays a status table. If any checklist has incomplete items, it stops and asks whether to proceed before continuing.

Does speckit-implement support extension hooks?▼

Yes. It reads .specify/extensions.yml for hooks under before_implement and after_implement keys. Mandatory hooks are executed automatically, optional hooks are suggested, and hooks with enabled set to false are skipped.

Why does implementation stop when tasks.md is missing?▼

The skill depends on a complete task breakdown in tasks.md to drive execution. If tasks are missing or incomplete, it suggests running /speckit-tasks first to regenerate the task list before implementing.
