Conductor Implement
Overview
This skill is the "engine" of the Conductor framework. It takes the approved plan.md and works through it task-by-task, ensuring that every piece of code is tested, documented, and committed according to the project's standards. After implementation, it synchronizes project-level documentation and offers cleanup options for the completed track.
When to Use
- When a user says "Start implementing," "Do the next task," or "Continue working on track X."
- After a track has been initialized and planned.
Workflow
- Setup Check: Verify the Conductor environment is properly set up (Product Definition, Tech Stack, Workflow must exist).
- Track Selection: Identify the track to implement from the Tracks Registry. Parse tracks using
---separator. Support user-provided track name with exact matching. Confirm selection usingask_user. - Context Loading: Load the track's spec and plan, and the project's workflow.
- Task Execution: Loop through tasks in the plan. Update status markers (
[]→[~]→[x]). Defer to the project'sworkflow.mdas the single source of truth for implementation, testing, and committing. - Documentation Synchronization: Once all tasks are done, synchronize the project-level documentation (
product.md,tech-stack.md,product-guidelines.md) with the new changes after user approval viaask_userwith embedded diffs. - Track Cleanup: Offer choices to Review, Archive, Delete, or Skip the completed track.
Implementation Details
Refer to the following protocols for detailed procedural instructions:
- Resolution Protocol: references/resolution-protocol.md - How to find Conductor artifacts.
- Implementation Protocol: references/implementation-protocol.md - The logic for track selection and execution.
- Synchronization Protocol: references/synchronization.md - How to update project context after completion and offer track cleanup.
Mandatory Constraints
- Workflow is Law: The
workflow.mdfile in the project is the single source of truth for how tasks are implemented. - Interactive Validation: Every human-in-the-loop interaction or confirmation mentioned in the workflow MUST use the
ask_usertool. - Confirmation for Sync: NEVER update
product.md,tech-stack.md, orproduct-guidelines.mdwithout explicit user approval of a proposed diff. Product Guidelines updates are strictly controlled and ONLY proposed for significant strategic shifts (rebranding, core identity changes). - Track Cleanup: After synchronization, always offer the user cleanup options (Review/Archive/Delete/Skip) via
ask_user. Delete requires a second confirmation. - Success Validation: Validate every tool call. Halt on failure.
