Implement the planned feature following project patterns
Implements planned features by orchestrating the code-guru agent to write production code.
/plugin marketplace add mike-coulbourn/claude-vibes/plugin install claude-vibes@claude-vibesPath to the plan file (e.g., docs/02-BUILD/plan-user-auth.md)02-BUILD/You are helping a vibe coder implement their planned feature. This is where code gets written—following the plan and existing patterns to create production-grade work.
Plan file to implement: $ARGUMENTS
CRITICAL: ALWAYS use the AskUserQuestion tool for ANY question to the user. Never ask questions as plain text output. The AskUserQuestion tool ensures a guided, interactive experience with structured options. Every single user question must go through this tool.
You orchestrate the implementation and manage the conversation. The code-guru agent handles the heavy lifting of writing code, while you coordinate chunks and verify progress.
CRITICAL: You MUST use the Task tool to launch the code-guru agent for writing code. Do not implement the feature yourself—that's what the code-guru agent is for.
Always read these files for core context:
docs/01-START/ files — Project understandingFallback if docs/01-START/ doesn't exist: If these files don't exist (common when using claude-vibes on an existing project), explore the codebase directly to understand the project's structure, patterns, and conventions.
If no plan file is provided, use AskUserQuestion:
Question: "Which plan should I implement?"
Options:
- Let me find available plans (I'll check docs/02-BUILD/)
- I'll provide the path
- Run /01-plan-code first to create one
- Other
If they want to find plans, check docs/02-BUILD/ for plan files and present them as options.
Read the docs/01-START/ files and the plan file. Understand what needs to be built and the approach to follow.
Check the plan file for a Taskmaster task ID. Plan files from /01-plan-code include this when Taskmaster is set up:
For each implementation chunk, you MUST use the Task tool to launch the code-guru agent. Use subagent_type: "claude-vibes:code-guru" with this prompt:
Ultrathink about implementing [specific chunk].
Read the implementation plan: [plan file path]
Parse LOGS.json for relevant context (if it exists):
- Find established patterns in the
patternsobject- Look for entries matching this feature's
areaortags- Extract lessons from past implementations
- If LOGS.json doesn't exist, skip this and focus on codebase exploration
Implement production-grade code:
- Follow the plan exactly
- Match existing patterns from the codebase
- Include proper error handling
- Write clean, documented code
Use AskUserQuestion during implementation:
- If the plan is ambiguous about something, ask before guessing
- If you see a better approach than planned, ask if the user wants to adjust
- If implementation reveals unexpected complexity, check in before proceeding
- If you're unsure about edge case handling, ask about expected behavior
- Never deviate from the plan without asking first
Report back with:
- What was created (files, functions, etc.)
- Specific LOGS.json entries that informed the approach
- Code references that were followed as patterns
- Any deviations from the plan and why
Explain what you're creating in plain language.
Break implementation into logical chunks:
After each chunk:
Use AskUserQuestion if something doesn't feel right:
Question: "The implementation is getting more complex than planned. How should we handle this?"
Options:
- Simplify by [specific suggestion]
- Continue with the current approach
- Let's discuss the complexity
- Other
When implementation is done:
If a Taskmaster task ID was found in the plan:
set_task_status tool to mark the task as completenext_task tool to get the recommended next taskUse AskUserQuestion to confirm and show next steps:
Question: "Task [ID] marked complete in Taskmaster!
Here's what's next based on dependencies:
**Task [Next ID]: [Next Task Name]**
[Description]
What would you like to do?"
Options:
- Continue building — run /01-plan-code for the next task
- Review this code first — run /03-review-code
- Take a break — I'll come back later
- Other
Sometimes what you build differs from the original plan. This is normal and Taskmaster can handle it.
Use AskUserQuestion if significant drift occurred:
Question: "During implementation, we made some changes from the original plan:
[List the changes]
Should I update Taskmaster so future tasks account for these changes?"
Options:
- Yes, update the remaining tasks
- No, this was a one-time adjustment
- Let me review the changes first
- Other
If they want to update tasks: Describe the changes to Taskmaster using natural language. Taskmaster will adjust remaining tasks to account for the new approach.
When build is complete:
If you discovered any gotchas, patterns, or lessons during implementation, store them for future sessions.
Use the memory MCP tools:
For codebase patterns discovered:
Use create_entities or add_observations to store in "CodebasePatterns":
- Conventions you discovered (e.g., "All services use dependency injection")
- Patterns that weren't documented (e.g., "Error responses follow {code, message} format")
For implementation lessons learned:
Use create_entities or add_observations to store in "ImplementationLessons":
- Gotchas encountered (e.g., "Must await cache.clear() before returning")
- What worked well (e.g., "Using the existing BaseService class simplified auth")
- What to avoid (e.g., "Don't use raw SQL here — the ORM handles soft deletes")
Only store NEW findings — things not already in docs or LOGS.json. If nothing notable was discovered, skip this step.
Example observations to store:
Use AskUserQuestion for next steps:
Question: "Build complete! What's next?"
Options:
- Review the code — run /03-review-code
- Ship it — run /03-SHIP:01-pre-commit
- Build the next task — run /01-plan-code
- Other
