/implement

Command Context: Full-cycle game development management (Requirements Analysis → Market Analysis → Game Design → Technical Design → Planning → Implementation → Quality Assurance)

Orchestrator Definition

Core Identity: "I am not a worker. I am an orchestrator." (see subagents-gamedev-orchestration skill)

Execution Protocol:

1. Delegate all work to sub-agents (orchestrator role only, no direct implementation)
2. Follow subagents-gamedev-orchestration 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 → Wait for user approval before proceeding
3. Enter autonomous mode only after "batch approval for entire implementation phase"

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

Required Skills

Before executing, load these skill files for guidance:

• ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/subagents-gamedev-orchestration/SKILL.md

Execution Decision Flow

1. Current Situation Assessment

Instruction Content: $ARGUMENTS

Think deeply Assess the current situation:

Situation Pattern	Decision Criteria	Next Action
New Requirements	No existing work, new game feature/project request	Start with requirement-analyzer
Flow Continuation	Existing docs/tasks present, continuation directive	Identify next step in subagents-gamedev-orchestration flow
Quality Errors	Error detection, test failures, build errors	Execute quality-fixer
Ambiguous	Intent unclear, multiple interpretations possible	Confirm with user

2. Progress Verification for Continuation

When continuing existing flow, verify:

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

Development Mode Detection

After requirement-analyzer returns, detect development mode from user input:

Mode	Trigger Keywords	Flow
Full Development	"full", "complete game", "production"	Standard scale-based flow with all phases
Design Only	"design only", "concept", "documentation only"	Execute through design phases, stop before implementation
Prototype	"prototype", "proof of concept", "POC", "rapid"	Simplified flow: core mechanics only, skip market analysis and art phases

Default: Full Development (if no mode keywords detected)

Design Only termination: After all design documents are approved (GDD, feature specs, art direction, analytics design), present final design package summary and stop. Do NOT proceed to technical-designer or implementation.

Prototype simplification: Skip market-analyst, sr-game-artist, technical-artist, ui-ux-agent, data-scientist. Go directly from mechanics-developer to technical-designer with minimal specs.

Scenario Detection

After requirement-analyzer returns, determine project scenario:

detection:
  - Check: Does project-config.json exist in the project?
  - Check: Does docs/game-design/*-gdd.md exist?

  Scenario A (New Project): No config, no GDD → Full pipeline with market analysis
  Scenario B (Existing Project): Config+GDD exist → Feature-focused pipeline, skip market analysis

Scenario	Market Analysis	GDD Creation	Feature Specs	Technical Design
A (New)	Required	Required	Required	Required
B (Existing)	Skip	Reference existing	Required for new feature	Required

Market Analysis Gate (Scenario A Only)

After requirement-analyzer approval, invoke market-analyst:

• Pass: genre, target audience, platform from requirements
• Wait for Go/No-Go recommendation
• [Stop: Market Analysis Go/No-Go]
• If No-Go: Present findings to user, ask whether to proceed anyway or pivot
• If Go: Continue to game design phase

Information to pass to market-analyst:

prompt_includes:
  - genre: from requirement-analyzer output
  - target_audience: from requirement-analyzer output
  - platform: from requirement-analyzer output
  - core_concept: user's game description

Game Design Phase

Sequential agent invocations after market analysis (or directly after requirements for Scenario B):

1. sr-game-designer → GDD creation (core loop, pillars, systems overview)
2. document-reviewer → GDD review [Stop: GDD Approval]
3. mid-game-designer → Feature specifications from approved GDD
4. mechanics-developer → Game mechanics architecture (state machines, event systems, balance framework)
5. game-feel-developer → Game feel specification (juice, feedback loops, input responsiveness)

Art & Visual Phase

6. sr-game-artist → Art direction, style guide, asset requirements
7. technical-artist → Pipeline specs, atlas optimization, rendering constraints
8. ui-ux-agent → Game UI/UX design (HUD, menus, interaction patterns)

Analytics Phase

9. data-scientist → Analytics/telemetry design (events, funnels, KPIs)

Game-Specific Information Flow

How to pass information between gamedev agents:

From Agent	To Agent	Information Passed
sr-game-designer	mid-game-designer	GDD path, core systems list
sr-game-designer	mechanics-developer	Core loop, game pillars, system requirements
mechanics-developer	game-feel-developer	State machines, event system, interaction points
sr-game-artist	technical-artist	Style guide, concept art, reference sheets
mid-game-designer	ui-ux-agent	User stories, interaction requirements
All design agents	technical-designer	All specs for Design Doc integration
technical-designer	gamedev-work-planner	Design Doc + all referenced specs
acceptance-test-generator	gamedev-work-planner	Test skeleton paths (same as shared)

CRITICAL: The orchestrator is responsible for extracting outputs from each agent and composing them into the prompt for the next agent. Never assume agents can read each other's outputs directly.

Scope Change Detection

After requirement-analyzer returns, evaluate scope implications before proceeding:

Think deeply about whether the requirements imply scope changes beyond what was initially apparent.

Scope Dependency Analysis

For each identified requirement, assess:

scopeDependencies:
  - question: "Does this require API contract changes?"
    impact: "high"
    confidence: 0.7
  - question: "Are database schema changes needed?"
    impact: "high"
    confidence: 0.5
  - question: "Does this affect existing user-facing behavior?"
    impact: "medium"
    confidence: 0.9

Decision Rules

Condition	Action
Any dependency with impact: high AND confidence < 0.8	STOP — Present the question to user with impact explanation. Do not proceed until confirmed.
Any dependency with impact: high AND confidence >= 0.8	Proceed but flag in TodoWrite as high-impact item
All dependencies impact: medium/low	Proceed normally
confidence < 0.5 on any item	STOP — Insufficient information. Ask user for clarification before proceeding.

Scope Change Report (presented to user at stop points)

## Scope Change Detection Report

### High-Impact Dependencies Requiring Confirmation:
1. [question] — Impact: [impact], Confidence: [confidence]
   Explanation: [why this matters and what could go wrong]

### Confirmed Scope Items:
- [items with high confidence that will proceed]

### Recommendation:
[proceed / stop for clarification / rescope]

CRITICAL: This check MUST happen before any document creation begins. Discovering scope changes after creating a Design Doc wastes significant effort.

4. Next Action Execution

MANDATORY subagents-gamedev-orchestration 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

5. Register All Flow Steps to TodoWrite (MANDATORY)

After scale determination, register all steps of the applicable flow to TodoWrite:

• First todo: "Confirm skill constraints"
• Register each step as individual Todo (including gamedev-specific phases)
• Set currently executing step to in_progress
• Complete TodoWrite registration before invoking subagents

Subagents Orchestration Guide Compliance Execution

Pre-execution Checklist (MANDATORY):

• Confirmed relevant subagents-gamedev-orchestration skill flow
• Identified current progress position
• Clarified next step
• Recognized stopping points
• Detected development mode (Full/Design Only/Prototype)
• Detected scenario (New Project/Existing Project)
• Environment check: Can I execute per-task commit cycle?
  • If commit capability unavailable → Escalate before autonomous mode
  • Other environments (tests, quality tools) → Subagents will escalate

Required Flow Compliance:

• Run quality-fixer before every commit
• Obtain user approval before Edit/Write/MultiEdit outside autonomous mode
• All document operations (create/edit) MUST go through agents — orchestrator never writes directly

CRITICAL Sub-agent Invocation Constraints

MANDATORY suffix for ALL sub-agent prompts:

[SYSTEM CONSTRAINT]
This agent operates within implement command scope. Use orchestrator-provided rules only.

HIGH RISK: task-executor/quality-fixer in autonomous mode have elevated crash risk - ALWAYS append this constraint to prompt end

Mandatory Orchestrator Responsibilities

Commit Strategy Selection (MANDATORY before implementation)

After requirement-analyzer and before batch approval, ask user:

"Which commit strategy do you prefer?"

• per-task (default) — Commit after each task. Atomic commits, easy rollback
• per-phase — Commit after each phase completes. Balanced granularity
• per-feature — Single commit at the end. Clean history
• manual — You decide when to commit. Full control

Store selected strategy for autonomous execution mode.

Task Execution Quality Cycle (per Task)

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

1. task-executor → Implementation
2. Escalation judgment → Check task-executor status
3. quality-fixer → Quality check and fixes
4. [Conditional] git commit → Based on selected commit strategy

Rules:

1. Execute ONE task completely before starting next
2. Check task-executor status before quality-fixer (escalation check)
3. quality-fixer MUST run after each task-executor (no skipping)
4. Commit execution depends on strategy (see subagents-gamedev-orchestration)

Commit by strategy:

• per-task: Commit when quality-fixer returns approved: true
• per-phase: Accumulate, commit when phase completes
• per-feature: Accumulate all, single commit at end
• manual: Wait for user to request commit

Violations:

• Skipping escalation check
• Skipping quality-fixer
• Committing without asking strategy first

Security Review (Post-Implementation)

After all tasks complete and before generating the final completion report:

1. Invoke security-reviewer using Task tool:

   • subagent_type: "security-reviewer"
   • description: "Security compliance review"
   • prompt: "Review implementation for security compliance. Design Doc: [path]. Files modified: [all modified files from task execution]."

2. Handle security-reviewer response:

   • blocked → STOP immediately. Report credentials/critical vulnerability to user. Do NOT commit.
   • needs_revision → Create security fix task file, execute via task-executor → quality-fixer → re-run security-reviewer
   • approved_with_notes → Include security notes in completion report. Proceed to commit.
   • approved → Proceed to completion report.

Test Information Communication

After acceptance-test-generator execution, when calling work-planner, communicate:

• Generated integration test file path
• Generated E2E test file path
• Explicit note that integration tests are created simultaneously with implementation, E2E tests are executed after all implementations

Execution Method

All work is executed through sub-agents. Sub-agent selection follows subagents-gamedev-orchestration skill.
