<!-- SYNC:understand-code-first -->[IMPORTANT] Use
TaskCreateto break ALL work into small tasks BEFORE starting — including tasks for each file read. This prevents context loss from long files. For simple tasks, AI MUST ATTENTION ask user whether to skip.
<!-- /SYNC:understand-code-first -->Understand Code First — HARD-GATE: Do NOT write, plan, or fix until you READ existing code.
- Search 3+ similar patterns (
grep/glob) — citefile:lineevidence- Read existing files in target area — understand structure, base classes, conventions
- Run
python .claude/scripts/code_graph trace <file> --direction both --jsonwhen.code-graph/graph.dbexists- Map dependencies via
connectionsorcallers_of— know what depends on your target- Write investigation to
.ai/workspace/analysis/for non-trivial tasks (3+ files)- Re-read analysis file before implementing — never work from memory alone
- NEVER invent new patterns when existing ones work — match exactly or document deviation
BLOCKED until:
- [ ]Read target files- [ ]Grep 3+ patterns- [ ]Graph trace (if graph.db exists)- [ ]Assumptions verified with evidence
docs/project-reference/domain-entities-reference.md— Domain entity catalog, relationships, cross-service sync (read when task involves business entities/models) (content auto-injected by hook — check for [Injected: ...] header before reading)
Quick Summary
Goal: Automatically execute an existing plan with testing and code review — no user approval gate (trust mode).
Workflow:
- Plan Detection — Find latest plan or use provided path, select next incomplete phase
- Analysis & Tasks — Extract tasks into TaskCreate with step numbering
- Implementation — Implement phase step-by-step, run type checks
- Testing — Tester subagent; must reach 100% pass
- Code Review — Code-reviewer subagent; must reach 0 critical issues
- Finalize — Update status, docs, auto-commit; optionally loop to next phase
Key Rules:
- No user approval gate (unlike
/codewhich has a blocking Step 5) - Tests must be 100% passing; critical issues must be 0
$ALL_PHASES=Yes(default) processes all phases in one run- Never comment out tests or use fake data to pass
MUST ATTENTION READ CLAUDE.md then THINK HARDER to start working on the following plan:
Be skeptical. Apply critical thinking, sequential thinking. Every claim needs traced proof, confidence percentages (Idea should be more than 80%).
<plan>$ARGUMENTS</plan>
Arguments
- $PLAN: $1 (Mention specific plan or auto detected, default: latest plan)
- $ALL_PHASES: $2 (
Yesto finish all phases in one run orNoto implement phase-by-phase, default:Yes)
Step 0: Plan Detection & Phase Selection
If $PLAN is empty:
- Find latest
plan.mdin./plans - Parse plan for phases and status, auto-select next incomplete
If $PLAN provided: Use that plan and detect which phase to work on.
Output: ✓ Step 0: [Plan Name] - [Phase Name]
Workflow Sequence
Rules: Follow steps 1-5 in order. Each step requires output marker ✓ Step N:. Mark each complete in TaskCreate before proceeding. Do not skip steps.
Step 1: Analysis & Task Extraction
Use project-manager agent to read plan file completely. Map dependencies. List ambiguities. Identify required skills. If the plan references analysis files in .ai/workspace/analysis/, re-read them before implementation.
TaskCreate Initialization:
- Initialize TaskCreate with
Step 0: [Plan Name] - [Phase Name]and all steps (1-5) - Read phase file, look for tasks/steps/phases/sections/numbered/bulleted lists
- Convert to TaskCreate tasks with UNIQUE names:
- Phase Implementation tasks → Step 2.X (Step 2.1, Step 2.2, etc.)
- Phase Testing tasks → Step 3.X
- Phase Code Review tasks → Step 4.X
Output: ✓ Step 1: Found [N] tasks across [M] phases - Ambiguities: [list or "none"]
Step 2: Implementation
Implement selected plan phase step-by-step. Mark tasks complete as done. For UI work, call ui-ux-designer subagent. Run type checking and compile.
Output: ✓ Step 2: Implemented [N] files - [X/Y] tasks complete, compilation passed
Step 3: Testing
Call tester subagent. If ANY tests fail: STOP, call debugger, fix, re-run. Repeat until 100% pass.
Testing standards: Forbidden: commenting out tests, changing assertions to pass, TODO/FIXME to defer fixes.
Output: ✓ Step 3: Tests [X/X passed] - All requirements met
Validation: If X ≠ total, Step 3 INCOMPLETE - do not proceed.
Step 4: Code Review
Call code-reviewer subagent. If critical issues found: STOP, fix, re-run tester, re-run code-reviewer. Repeat until no critical issues.
Output: ✓ Step 4: Code reviewed - [0] critical issues
Validation: If critical issues > 0, Step 4 INCOMPLETE - do not proceed.
Step 5: Finalize
- STATUS UPDATE (PARALLEL): Call
project-manager+docs-managersubagents. - ONBOARDING CHECK: Detect onboarding requirements + generate summary.
- AUTO-COMMIT: Call
git-managersubagent. Run only if Steps 1-2 successful + Tests passed.
If $ALL_PHASES is Yes: proceed to next phase automatically.
If $ALL_PHASES is No: ask user before proceeding to next phase.
If last phase: Generate summary report. Ask user about /preview and /plan-archive.
Output: ✓ Step 5: Finalize - Status updated - Git committed
Critical Enforcement Rules
Step output format: ✓ Step [N]: [Brief status] - [Key metrics]
TaskCreate tracking required: Initialize at Step 0, mark each step complete before next.
Mandatory subagent calls: Step 3: tester | Step 4: code-reviewer | Step 5: project-manager AND docs-manager AND git-manager
Blocking gates:
- Step 3: Tests must be 100% passing
- Step 4: Critical issues must be 0
Do not skip steps. Do not proceed if validation fails. One plan phase per command run.
Next Steps (Standalone: MUST ATTENTION ask user via AskUserQuestion. Skip if inside workflow.)
MANDATORY IMPORTANT MUST ATTENTION — NO EXCEPTIONS: If this skill was called outside a workflow, you MUST ATTENTION use
AskUserQuestionto present these options. Do NOT skip because the task seems "simple" or "obvious" — the user decides:
- "Proceed with full workflow (Recommended)" — I'll detect the best workflow to continue from here (code implemented). This ensures review, testing, and docs steps aren't skipped.
- "/code-simplifier" — Simplify implementation
- "/workflow-review-changes" — Review changes before commit
- "Skip, continue manually" — user decides
If already inside a workflow, skip — the workflow handles sequencing.
Closing Reminders
- IMPORTANT MUST ATTENTION break work into small todo tasks using
TaskCreateBEFORE starting - IMPORTANT MUST ATTENTION search codebase for 3+ similar patterns before creating new code
- IMPORTANT MUST ATTENTION cite
file:lineevidence for every claim (confidence >80% to act) - IMPORTANT MUST ATTENTION add a final review todo task to verify work quality
- IMPORTANT MUST ATTENTION validate decisions with user via
AskUserQuestion— never auto-decide MANDATORY IMPORTANT MUST ATTENTION READ the following files before starting: <!-- SYNC:understand-code-first:reminder --> - IMPORTANT MUST ATTENTION search 3+ existing patterns and read code BEFORE any modification. Run graph trace when graph.db exists. <!-- /SYNC:understand-code-first:reminder -->
