# Implement Feature Skill
> [!IMPORTANT]
> Implement an approved feature plan with fresh-context slices, TDD, evidence, and PR-ready output.
Optional args: slug=<feature>, ticket=<id/url>, mode=interactive|autonomous|channel, channel=<id>, auto_continue=true|false.
## Instructions
When the user asks to perform this workflow, execute the following steps:
# Implement Feature Workflow
Goal: Build an approved feature through TDD slices and route completed work to verification.
## Steps
1. Load plan:
- Search `docs/prd/` and `docs/srs/` for a matching `[slug]`; if absent, use the newest matching artifact.
- If multiple candidates exist, ask the user to choose or input the target slug.
- PRD or ticket
- SRS/FRS technical design if present
- Implementation plan
- Matched framework and common skills
- If stable `REQ-*`, `AC-*`, trace, or required SRS/test lanes are missing, stop and route to `plan-feature`, `design-solution`, or `implementation-readiness`.
2. Prepare workspace:
- Confirm clean or intentionally dirty git state.
- Create branch or worktree only when project workflow expects it.
- Initialize or update `docs/srs/srs-task-list.md` with small vertical slices.
3. Implement slices:
- For each slice, write or update the failing test first.
- Consume the named `REQ-*` and `AC-*` for each slice; do not invent scope from code inspection.
- Do not keep pre-test implementation code as "reference".
- Implement the smallest passing code.
- Refactor without expanding scope.
- Keep slice evidence near the task item.
- Use sub-agents only when the runtime supports them and ownership is disjoint.
- If a fix path is unclear, stop and apply root-cause debugging before more code changes.
4. Maintain context hygiene:
- Start fresh context for large independent slices when possible.
- Preserve decisions in `docs/srs/srs-task-list.md` or `docs/prd/prd-plan-[slug].md`.
- If behavior or scope changes, update `docs/prd/prd-[slug].md` and `docs/srs/srs-[slug].md` before closing the slice.
- Avoid carrying raw logs; summarize failures and fixes.
5. Prepare handoff:
- Run fresh local automated checks before claiming success.
- Update requirement trace notes for changed AC coverage.
- Capture evidence in `docs/srs/srs-walkthrough.md`.
- For autonomous/channel mode, delegate only with disjoint files, owner, AC IDs, expected artifact, and verification command.
- Route next step to `verify-work`.
