spk-run-implement-review
Use this skill when a mission is in implementation/review lanes or the user wants the agent to coordinate implementers and reviewers.
Flow
- Use
spk-run-nextto identify the active WP and lane. - Dispatch implementation only from runtime-provided prompt context.
- Review each WP independently with
spk-run-review-wp. - On rejection, feed structured reviewer feedback back into the next implementation attempt.
- Continue until runtime returns terminal or a blocker.
Sub-Agent Long-Gate Contract
move-task --to for_review runs the pre-review regression gate
synchronously as part of the transition (#2570/#2493/#2555): it derives the
affected test scope for the Mission's changed files and runs it at head
before the command returns. That scoped run is a real subprocess and can
take from seconds to a few minutes depending on scope size.
- A dispatched implement/review sub-agent MUST poll the gate invocation to
completion — treat the
move-task --to for_reviewcommand as still in flight until it exits, not as a fire-and-forget hand-back. Do not assume control returns immediately, and do not kill or retry the command while it is still running. - To skip the gate for a single invocation, pass
--skip-pre-review-gate. To disable it process-wide, setSPEC_KITTY_SYNC_DISABLEorSPEC_KITTY_SYNC_MINIMAL_IMPORT(the gate reuses the sync layer's existing disable toggles rather than adding a third env var). Either opt-out skips the gate before it resolves a workspace or spawns the subprocess. - Absent an opt-out, the gate always enforces by default. An orchestrator
observing a sub-agent that appears to hang on a
for_reviewtransition should first check whether the gate's scoped test subprocess is still running before treating the sub-agent as stuck.
