Explicit User Instruction: The user explicitly instructs and authorizes every subagent call named in this recipe. Execute each applicable call when its prerequisites are met.

Execute Skill: llm-friendly-context before writing Agent prompts, handoffs, or generated artifacts. Execute Skill: subagents-orchestration-guide before making workflow decisions, invoking agents, or resolving findings.

Context: Full-cycle implementation management (Requirements Analysis → Design → Planning → Implementation → Quality Assurance)

Orchestrator Definition

Core Identity: "I am an orchestrator." (see subagents-orchestration-guide skill)

Local authority gate: Make this recipe's workflow decisions and validate each returned result directly; delegate semantic deliverable production to the named specialist.

Review Resolution Gate [MANDATORY]: Resolve every actionable deliverable-review finding through subagents-orchestration-guide Review Resolution before correction or progression. Before the first finding disposition, read references/review-resolution.md from the loaded subagents-orchestration-guide skill.

Execution Protocol:

  1. Invoke named specialists for deliverable production — pass deliverable paths between them and validate their results (see subagents-orchestration-guide "Orchestrator Execution Boundary")
  2. Follow subagents-orchestration-guide skill flows exactly:
    • Execute one step at a time in the defined flow (Large/Medium/Small scale)
    • When flow specifies "Execute document-reviewer" → Execute it immediately
    • Stop at every [Stop: ...] marker → Use AskUserQuestion for confirmation and wait for approval before proceeding
  3. Enter autonomous mode after confirmed Small requirements or Medium/Large batch approval

At each Agent invocation below, build the prompt as a mechanical extraction: copy the named source values into the exact fields, apply only the declared serialization, then invoke immediately.

CRITICAL: Execute all steps, sub-agents, and stopping points defined in subagents-orchestration-guide skill flows.

Execution Decision Flow

1. Current Situation Assessment

Instruction Content: $ARGUMENTS

Assess the current situation:

Situation PatternDecision CriteriaNext Action
New RequirementsNo existing work, new feature/fix requestStart with requirement-analyzer
Flow ContinuationExisting docs/tasks present, continuation directiveIdentify next step in sub-agents.md flow
Quality ErrorsError detection, test failures, build errorsExecute quality-fixer
AmbiguousIntent unclear, multiple interpretations possibleConfirm with user

2. Progress Verification for Continuation

When continuing existing flow, verify:

  • Latest artifacts (PRD/ADR/Design Doc/Work Plan/Tasks)
  • Current phase position (Requirements/Design/Planning/Implementation/QA)
  • Identify next step in subagents-orchestration-guide skill corresponding flow

3. Next Action Execution

MANDATORY subagents-orchestration-guide skill reference:

  • Verify scale-based flow (Large/Medium/Small scale)
  • Confirm autonomous execution mode conditions
  • Recognize mandatory stopping points
  • Invoke next sub-agent defined in flow

After requirement-analyzer [Stop]

Execute Skill: requirement-convergence before running the hearing protocol.

Build and judge the convergence record from the user's statements and requirement-analyzer requestSignals, using scopeEvidence and costEvidence as supporting facts, then run the requirement-convergence hearing protocol. After the requirements are confirmed, apply the subagents-orchestration-guide Small evidence gate before assigning the final Structural Scale; when the gate is unresolved, invoke codebase-analyzer before routing.

When user responds to questions:

  • Update the orchestrator-owned convergence record from the answer, then update the Structural Scale judgment through the Small evidence gate.
  • Re-execute requirement-analyzer only when the answer changes the repository analysis target or scope evidence.
  • Repeat the hearing until every convergence field is ready or weak-but-explicit, then proceed with the resulting Scale.
  • For Small, the user's requirement confirmation authorizes the direct implementation scope; proceed to the 4-step cycle without a Work Plan.

4. Bind the Applicable Flow

After Structural Scale is determined, follow only that scale's applicable path. Treat each applicable design, review, approval, planning, implementation, verification, cleanup, and reporting phase as a gate. Advance only when the current phase's stated evidence or approval exists; skip only branches whose stated condition is false.

Subagents Orchestration Guide Compliance Execution

Pre-execution Checklist (MANDATORY):

  • Confirmed relevant subagents-orchestration-guide skill flow
  • Identified current progress position
  • Clarified next step
  • Recognized stopping points
  • codebase-analyzer included before Design Doc creation (Medium/Large scale)
  • code-verifier included before document-reviewer for Design Doc review (Medium/Large scale)
  • Environment check: Can I execute per-task commit cycle?
    • If commit capability unavailable → Escalate before autonomous mode
    • Other environments (tests, quality tools) → Quality agents retain proof limitations while the task cycle continues

Required Flow Compliance:

  • Run quality-fixer before every commit
  • Obtain user approval before Edit/Write/MultiEdit outside autonomous mode

Mandatory Orchestrator Responsibilities

Task Execution Quality Cycle (4-Step Cycle per Task)

Per-task cycle (complete each task before starting next):

  1. Agent tool (subagent_type: "dev-workflows:task-executor") → Record the current HEAD as diffBase; pass task_file: [path] when one exists, otherwise pass direct_scope as the confirmed outcome and exclusions, governing_sources, target_paths, and observable_verification
  2. Check task-executor response:
    • status: escalation_needed or blocked → Apply subagents-orchestration-guide Specialist Result Acceptance; escalate only a valid user-owned block
    • requiresTestReview is true → Identify the changed integration/E2E test files in the current changes and invoke integration-test-reviewer with them as changedTestFiles, plus diffBase, optional taskFile, prompt-only claims, and mutationEvidence
      • approved → Proceed to step 3
      • blocked → Apply Specialist Result Acceptance
      • needs_revision → Pass qualityIssues unchanged into the Review Resolution Gate; return to step 1 for rerouted corrections and derive convergence from correction re-review prior_feedback_reconciliation
    • Otherwise → Proceed to step 3
  3. quality-fixer → Pass task_file when one exists, upstream mutationEvidence, and qualityCommand when available (caller first, otherwise current task)
    • stub_detected → Return to step 1 with quality-fixer's incompleteImplementations array unchanged as the canonical incompleteImplementations field
    • blocked → Apply Specialist Result Acceptance
    • verification_incomplete → Retain the complete result for final retry and proceed to step 4
    • approved → Proceed to step 4
  4. git commit → Apply subagents-orchestration-guide Commit Boundary Check, then execute with Bash after approved or verification_incomplete; append its verification trailers for the latter

Post-Implementation Verification (Medium/Large, After All Tasks Complete)

Apply subagents-orchestration-guide's retained verification limitation retry before the document-dependent verifiers. Continue after clearing or retaining each result and report only repeated limitations.

Resolve the Work Plan's readable Design Doc; missing input blocks verification.

Emit these Agent calls in one assistant message, then await both:

  • code-verifier (subagent_type: "dev-workflows:code-verifier") → verify the completed implementation against the resolved doc_type and document_path
  • security-reviewer (subagent_type: "dev-workflows:security-reviewer") → review the completed implementation against the same typed governingDocuments

Apply subagents-orchestration-guide's Post-Implementation Verification status-routing and fix/re-run rules. Present the unified report; proceed to Final Cleanup after the complete verification set reaches Review Resolution convergence.

For Small, skip this document-dependent verification. Retry a retained verification limitation once after the task commit; complete with observed observable_verification evidence and report any proof that remains unavailable.

Final Cleanup

For Medium/Large, before the completion report, delete the implementation task files this recipe consumed. Their work is committed; docs/plans/ is ephemeral working state and is not retained between recipe runs:

  • Delete every file matching docs/plans/tasks/{plan-name}-task-*.md (the {plan-name} derived from the work plan path used in this run)
  • Preserve the work plan itself (docs/plans/{plan-name}.md) — the user decides whether to delete it after final review

If task-file deletion fails, include the filesystem error in the completion report and finish the report with the implementation result.

Small has no task-file cleanup.

In the completion report, list each declined actionable finding with its ID, governing reason, and evidence when any occurred.

Test Information Communication

After acceptance-test-generator execution, when invoking work-planner (subagent_type: "dev-workflows:work-planner"), communicate:

  • testSkeletons: every non-null path from generatedFiles

Execution Method

Deliverable production is executed through the specialist selected by subagents-orchestration-guide; workflow decisions and returned-result validation remain with the orchestrator.
