Plugin Plan Implement

Plugin Plan Implement Skill

Role: Implement plugin-domain tasks by iterating through steps (file paths) and applying changes.

Execution Pattern: Load task → Load skills → Iterate steps → Apply changes → Verify → Return result

Scripts

Standards (Load On-Demand)

Step Execution

Read standards/step-execution.md

Contains: How to execute each step type (modify, create, etc.)

Input

Workflow

Step 1: Load Task Details

python3 .plan/execute-script.py pm-workflow:manage-tasks:manage-tasks get \
  --plan-id {plan_id} \
  --number {task_number}

Extract from response:

• title: Task title for logging
• description: What changes to apply
• delegation.domain: For loading default skills
• delegation.context_skills: Additional skills
• steps[]: File paths to process
• verification: Commands and criteria

Step 2: Load Domain Skills

2a. Get Domain Defaults

python3 .plan/execute-script.py plan-marshall:plan-marshall-config:plan-marshall-config \
  skill-domains get-defaults \
  --domain {delegation.domain}

2b. Load Default Skills

Skill: {default_skill_1}
Skill: {default_skill_2}

2c. Load Context Skills

From task delegation block:

Skill: {delegation.context_skills[0]}
Skill: {delegation.context_skills[1]}

Step 3: Log Task Start

python3 .plan/execute-script.py plan-marshall:logging:manage-log \
  work {plan_id} INFO "[TASK] (pm-plugin-development:plugin-plan-implement) Starting task {task_number}: {title}"

Step 4: Execute Steps

For each step WHERE status == pending:

4a. Mark Step Started

python3 .plan/execute-script.py pm-workflow:manage-tasks:manage-tasks step-start \
  --plan-id {plan_id} \
  --task {task_number} \
  --step {step_number}

4b. Execute Step

The step title is a file path. Apply changes based on:

1. Task description - overall change guidance
2. Loaded skills - implementation patterns
3. File type - markdown with YAML frontmatter for plugins

For plugin files (agents, commands, skills):

• Read the file
• Identify sections to update
• Apply changes per task description
• Write updated content

Load step execution patterns if needed:

Read standards/step-execution.md

4c. Log Step Progress

python3 .plan/execute-script.py plan-marshall:logging:manage-log \
  work {plan_id} INFO "[STEP] (pm-plugin-development:plugin-plan-implement) Completed step {step_number}: {file_path}"

4d. Mark Step Done

python3 .plan/execute-script.py pm-workflow:manage-tasks:manage-tasks step-done \
  --plan-id {plan_id} \
  --task {task_number} \
  --step {step_number}

Step 5: Run Verification

After all steps complete:

# Execute each verification command
{verification.commands[0]}
{verification.commands[1]}

Log result:

python3 .plan/execute-script.py plan-marshall:logging:manage-log \
  work {plan_id} INFO "[VERIFY] (pm-plugin-development:plugin-plan-implement) Verification {passed|failed}: {criteria}"

Step 6: Return Result

Success Output:

status: success
plan_id: {plan_id}
task_number: {task_number}

execution_summary:
  steps_completed: {N}
  steps_total: {M}
  files_modified[N]:
    - {path1}
    - {path2}

verification:
  passed: true
  command: "{verification command}"

next_action: task_complete

Error Output:

status: error
plan_id: {plan_id}
task_number: {task_number}

execution_summary:
  steps_completed: {N}
  steps_failed: {M}

failure:
  step: {step_number}
  file: "{file path}"
  error: "{error message}"
  recoverable: true

next_action: requires_attention

Error Handling

Step Failure

If a step fails:

1. Log error to work-log
2. Do NOT mark step as done
3. Continue to next step OR stop (based on severity)
4. Include failure in result

Verification Failure

If verification fails:

1. Log what failed
2. Return error status with recoverable: true
3. Task remains in_progress for retry

Constraints

File Access

• .plan/ files: ONLY via execute-script.py
• Marketplace files: Use Read/Write/Edit as needed

Progress Tracking

• Mark step-start BEFORE execution
• Mark step-done AFTER success
• Log progress at each step
