nicodiansk Create Implementation Plan
Read the requirements at $ARGUMENTS and create a detailed implementation plan.
Plan Document Header
Every plan MUST start with:
# [Feature Name] Implementation Plan
**Goal:** [One sentence]
**Architecture:** [2-3 sentences about approach]
**Tech Stack:** [Key technologies]
Context Gathering
Before planning, preload domain context. When dispatching the planner agent, prefix its prompt with:
@ATLAS.md (navigation index — use its Where to Look and Module Map tables before any codebase search)
@CLAUDE.md (conventions, rules, domain vocabulary)
If either file does not exist, omit the corresponding @ reference. @ references auto-read on dispatch so the subagent receives them in context; subagents do NOT inherit parent conversation history.
Token discipline: Do NOT paste file contents or summaries into the dispatch prompt — send task description, file paths, and line ranges only. The planner reads actual files in its own context. Duplicating content in the dispatch wastes tokens (same pattern as build skill).
Task Structure
Each task MUST follow this exact format:
### Task N: [Component Name]
**Files:**
- Create: `exact/path/to/file.py`
- Modify: `exact/path/to/existing.py`
- Test: `tests/exact/path/to/test.py`
**Step 1: Write the failing test**
[complete test code]
**Step 2: Run test to verify it fails**
Run: `[exact command]`
Expected: FAIL with "[reason]"
**Step 3: Write minimal implementation**
[complete implementation code]
**Step 4: Run test to verify it passes**
Run: `[exact command]`
Expected: PASS
**Step 5: Commit**
`git commit -m "feat: [description]"`
Rules
- Each task: 2-5 minutes of work. If longer, split it.
- Exact file paths — not "somewhere in src/"
- Complete code — not "add validation" or pseudocode
- Exact commands with expected output
- TDD always — every task starts with a failing test
- DRY, YAGNI — don't plan features that aren't needed
