# Implementation Workflows
|
||||
|
||||
Umbrella skill for the class of implementation-shaping workflows that sit around code changes:
|
||||
- planning before execution
|
||||
- spikes / feasibility experiments
|
||||
- test-driven implementation discipline
|
||||
- pre-commit verification and independent review
|
||||
|
||||
These are better discovered as one class-level skill with labeled subsections than as a pile of siblings with narrowly different triggers.
|
||||
|
||||
## Use this skill when
|
||||
|
||||
The user is asking how to shape implementation work rather than asking about a domain technology itself.
|
||||
|
||||
Typical cases:
|
||||
- "make a plan"
|
||||
- "spike this"
|
||||
- "use TDD"
|
||||
- "review before commit"
|
||||
- multi-step implementation that needs disciplined execution gates
|
||||
|
||||
## Subsections
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Planning mode
|
||||
Use when the user wants a plan and not execution.
|
||||
- Reference: `references/plan.md`
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Spike / feasibility mode
|
||||
Use when the user wants throwaway experiments to answer feasibility questions before committing to production implementation.
|
||||
- Reference: `references/spike.md`
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Test-driven development
|
||||
Use when implementation should follow red-green-refactor discipline.
|
||||
- Reference: `references/test-driven-development.md`
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Pre-commit verification / code review gate
|
||||
Use when changes need an independent quality gate before commit/push.
|
||||
- Reference: `references/requesting-code-review.md`
|
||||
|
||||
## Decision rules
|
||||
|
||||
1. If the user explicitly wants no code changes and only an actionable plan artifact, use planning mode.
|
||||
2. If the unknown is feasibility and the output should be disposable, use spike mode.
|
||||
3. If the user wants disciplined incremental implementation, use TDD mode.
|
||||
4. If code already exists and needs a quality/security gate before landing, use pre-commit verification.
|
||||
5. These modes can stack: plan -> spike -> TDD -> verification.
|
||||
|
||||
## Maintenance rule
|
||||
|
||||
New workflow-specific implementation skills should usually be folded into this umbrella as subsections or support files unless they define a truly different class of work.

# Plan Mode
|
||||
|
||||
Use this skill when the user wants a plan instead of execution.
|
||||
|
||||
## Core behavior
|
||||
|
||||
For this turn, you are planning only.
|
||||
|
||||
- Do not implement code.
|
||||
- Do not edit project files except the plan markdown file.
|
||||
- Do not run mutating terminal commands, commit, push, or perform external actions.
|
||||
- You may inspect the repo or other context with read-only commands/tools when needed.
|
||||
- Your deliverable is a markdown plan saved inside the active workspace under `.hermes/plans/`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Output requirements
|
||||
|
||||
Write a markdown plan that is concrete and actionable.
|
||||
|
||||
Include, when relevant:
|
||||
- Goal
|
||||
- Current context / assumptions
|
||||
- Proposed approach
|
||||
- Step-by-step plan
|
||||
- Files likely to change
|
||||
- Tests / validation
|
||||
- Risks, tradeoffs, and open questions
|
||||
|
||||
If the task is code-related, include exact file paths, likely test targets, and verification steps.
|
||||
|
||||
## Save location
|
||||
|
||||
Save the plan with `write_file` under:
|
||||
- `.hermes/plans/YYYY-MM-DD_HHMMSS-<slug>.md`
|
||||
|
||||
Treat that as relative to the active working directory / backend workspace. Hermes file tools are backend-aware, so using this relative path keeps the plan with the workspace on local, docker, ssh, modal, and daytona backends.
|
||||
|
||||
If the runtime provides a specific target path, use that exact path.
|
||||
If not, create a sensible timestamped filename yourself under `.hermes/plans/`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Interaction style
|
||||
|
||||
- If the request is clear enough, write the plan directly.
|
||||
- If no explicit instruction accompanies `/plan`, infer the task from the current conversation context.
|
||||
- If it is genuinely underspecified, ask a brief clarifying question instead of guessing.
|
||||
- After saving the plan, reply briefly with what you planned and the saved path.
|
||||

# Writing the Plan Well
|
||||
|
||||
The rest of this skill is the craft of authoring a *good* implementation plan — the content that goes inside the markdown file above.
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
Write comprehensive implementation plans assuming the implementer has zero context for the codebase and questionable taste. Document everything they need: which files to touch, complete code, testing commands, docs to check, how to verify. Give them bite-sized tasks. DRY. YAGNI. TDD. Frequent commits.
|
||||
|
||||
Assume the implementer is a skilled developer but knows almost nothing about the toolset or problem domain. Assume they don't know good test design very well.
|
||||
|
||||
**Core principle:** A good plan makes implementation obvious. If someone has to guess, the plan is incomplete.
|
||||
|
||||
## When a Full Implementation Plan Helps
|
||||
|
||||
**Always use before:**
|
||||
- Implementing multi-step features
|
||||
- Breaking down complex requirements
|
||||
- Delegating to subagents via subagent-driven-development
|
||||
|
||||
**Don't skip when:**
|
||||
- Feature seems simple (assumptions cause bugs)
|
||||
- You plan to implement it yourself (future you needs guidance)
|
||||
- Working alone (documentation matters)
|
||||
|
||||
## Bite-Sized Task Granularity
|
||||
|
||||
**Each task = 2-5 minutes of focused work.**
|
||||
|
||||
Every step is one action:
|
||||
- "Write the failing test" — step
|
||||
- "Run it to make sure it fails" — step
|
||||
- "Implement the minimal code to make the test pass" — step
|
||||
- "Run the tests and make sure they pass" — step
|
||||
- "Commit" — step
|
||||
|
||||
**Too big:**
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
### Task 1: Build authentication system
|
||||
[50 lines of code across 5 files]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Right size:**
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
### Task 1: Create User model with email field
|
||||
[10 lines, 1 file]
|
||||
|
||||
### Task 2: Add password hash field to User
|
||||
[8 lines, 1 file]
|
||||
|
||||
### Task 3: Create password hashing utility
|
||||
[15 lines, 1 file]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Plan Document Structure
|
||||
|
||||
### Header (Required)
|
||||
|
||||
Every plan MUST start with:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# [Feature Name] Implementation Plan
|
||||
|
||||
> **For Hermes:** Use subagent-driven-development skill to implement this plan task-by-task.
|
||||
|
||||
**Goal:** [One sentence describing what this builds]
|
||||
|
||||
**Architecture:** [2-3 sentences about approach]
|
||||
|
||||
**Tech Stack:** [Key technologies/libraries]
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Task Structure
|
||||
|
||||
Each task follows this format:
|
||||
|
||||
````markdown
|
||||
### Task N: [Descriptive Name]
|
||||
|
||||
**Objective:** What this task accomplishes (one sentence)
|
||||
|
||||
**Files:**
|
||||
- Create: `exact/path/to/new_file.py`
|
||||
- Modify: `exact/path/to/existing.py:45-67` (line numbers if known)
|
||||
- Test: `tests/path/to/test_file.py`
|
||||
|
||||
**Step 1: Write failing test**
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
def test_specific_behavior():
|
||||
result = function(input)
|
||||
assert result == expected
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Step 2: Run test to verify failure**
|
||||
|
||||
Run: `pytest tests/path/test.py::test_specific_behavior -v`
|
||||
Expected: FAIL — "function not defined"
|
||||
|
||||
**Step 3: Write minimal implementation**
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
def function(input):
|
||||
return expected
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Step 4: Run test to verify pass**
|
||||
|
||||
Run: `pytest tests/path/test.py::test_specific_behavior -v`
|
||||
Expected: PASS
|
||||
|
||||
**Step 5: Commit**
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
git add tests/path/test.py src/path/file.py
|
||||
git commit -m "feat: add specific feature"
|
||||
```
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
## Writing Process
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 1: Understand Requirements
|
||||
|
||||
Read and understand:
|
||||
- Feature requirements
|
||||
- Design documents or user description
|
||||
- Acceptance criteria
|
||||
- Constraints
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 2: Explore the Codebase
|
||||
|
||||
Use Hermes tools to understand the project:
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
# Understand project structure
|
||||
search_files("*.py", target="files", path="src/")
|
||||
|
||||
# Look at similar features
|
||||
search_files("similar_pattern", path="src/", file_glob="*.py")
|
||||
|
||||
# Check existing tests
|
||||
search_files("*.py", target="files", path="tests/")
|
||||
|
||||
# Read key files
|
||||
read_file("src/app.py")
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 3: Design Approach
|
||||
|
||||
Decide:
|
||||
- Architecture pattern
|
||||
- File organization
|
||||
- Dependencies needed
|
||||
- Testing strategy
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 4: Write Tasks
|
||||
|
||||
Create tasks in order:
|
||||
1. Setup/infrastructure
|
||||
2. Core functionality (TDD for each)
|
||||
3. Edge cases
|
||||
4. Integration
|
||||
5. Cleanup/documentation
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 5: Add Complete Details
|
||||
|
||||
For each task, include:
|
||||
- **Exact file paths** (not "the config file" but `src/config/settings.py`)
|
||||
- **Complete code examples** (not "add validation" but the actual code)
|
||||
- **Exact commands** with expected output
|
||||
- **Verification steps** that prove the task works
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 6: Review the Plan
|
||||
|
||||
Check:
|
||||
- [ ] Tasks are sequential and logical
|
||||
- [ ] Each task is bite-sized (2-5 min)
|
||||
- [ ] File paths are exact
|
||||
- [ ] Code examples are complete (copy-pasteable)
|
||||
- [ ] Commands are exact with expected output
|
||||
- [ ] No missing context
|
||||
- [ ] DRY, YAGNI, TDD principles applied
|
||||
|
||||
## Principles
|
||||
|
||||
### DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself)
|
||||
|
||||
**Bad:** Copy-paste validation in 3 places
|
||||
**Good:** Extract validation function, use everywhere
|
||||
|
||||
### YAGNI (You Aren't Gonna Need It)
|
||||
|
||||
**Bad:** Add "flexibility" for future requirements
|
||||
**Good:** Implement only what's needed now
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
# Bad — YAGNI violation
|
||||
class User:
|
||||
def __init__(self, name, email):
|
||||
self.name = name
|
||||
self.email = email
|
||||
self.preferences = {} # Not needed yet!
|
||||
self.metadata = {} # Not needed yet!
|
||||
|
||||
# Good — YAGNI
|
||||
class User:
|
||||
def __init__(self, name, email):
|
||||
self.name = name
|
||||
self.email = email
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### TDD (Test-Driven Development)
|
||||
|
||||
Every task that produces code should include the full TDD cycle:
|
||||
1. Write failing test
|
||||
2. Run to verify failure
|
||||
3. Write minimal code
|
||||
4. Run to verify pass
|
||||
|
||||
See `test-driven-development` skill for details.
|
||||
|
||||
### Frequent Commits
|
||||
|
||||
Commit after every task:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
git add [files]
|
||||
git commit -m "type: description"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Common Mistakes
|
||||
|
||||
### Vague Tasks
|
||||
|
||||
**Bad:** "Add authentication"
|
||||
**Good:** "Create User model with email and password_hash fields"
|
||||
|
||||
### Incomplete Code
|
||||
|
||||
**Bad:** "Step 1: Add validation function"
|
||||
**Good:** "Step 1: Add validation function" followed by the complete function code
|
||||
|
||||
### Missing Verification
|
||||
|
||||
**Bad:** "Step 3: Test it works"
|
||||
**Good:** "Step 3: Run `pytest tests/test_auth.py -v`, expected: 3 passed"
|
||||
|
||||
### Missing File Paths
|
||||
|
||||
**Bad:** "Create the model file"
|
||||
**Good:** "Create: `src/models/user.py`"
|
||||
|
||||
## Execution Handoff
|
||||
|
||||
After saving the plan, offer the execution approach:
|
||||
|
||||
**"Plan complete and saved. Ready to execute using subagent-driven-development — I'll dispatch a fresh subagent per task with two-stage review (spec compliance then code quality). Shall I proceed?"**
|
||||
|
||||
When executing, use the `subagent-driven-development` skill:
|
||||
- Fresh `delegate_task` per task with full context
|
||||
- Spec compliance review after each task
|
||||
- Code quality review after spec passes
|
||||
- Proceed only when both reviews approve
|
||||
|
||||
## Remember
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Bite-sized tasks (2-5 min each)
|
||||
Exact file paths
|
||||
Complete code (copy-pasteable)
|
||||
Exact commands with expected output
|
||||
Verification steps
|
||||
DRY, YAGNI, TDD
|
||||
Frequent commits
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**A good plan makes implementation obvious.**

# Pre-Commit Code Verification
|
||||
|
||||
Automated verification pipeline before code lands. Static scans, baseline-aware
|
||||
quality gates, an independent reviewer subagent, and an auto-fix loop.
|
||||
|
||||
**Core principle:** No agent should verify its own work. Fresh context finds what you miss.
|
||||
|
||||
## When to Use
|
||||
|
||||
- After implementing a feature or bug fix, before `git commit` or `git push`
|
||||
- When user says "commit", "push", "ship", "done", "verify", or "review before merge"
|
||||
- After completing a task with 2+ file edits in a git repo
|
||||
- After each task in subagent-driven-development (the two-stage review)
|
||||
|
||||
**Skip for:** documentation-only changes, pure config tweaks, or when user says "skip verification".
|
||||
|
||||
**This skill vs github-code-review:** This skill verifies YOUR changes before committing.
|
||||
`github-code-review` reviews OTHER people's PRs on GitHub with inline comments.
|
||||
|
||||
## Step 1 — Get the diff
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
git diff --cached
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If empty, try `git diff` then `git diff HEAD~1 HEAD`.
|
||||
|
||||
If `git diff --cached` is empty but `git diff` shows changes, tell the user to
|
||||
`git add <files>` first. If still empty, run `git status` — nothing to verify.
|
||||
|
||||
If the diff exceeds 15,000 characters, split by file:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
git diff --name-only
|
||||
git diff HEAD -- specific_file.py
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Step 2 — Static security scan
|
||||
|
||||
Scan added lines only. Any match is a security concern fed into Step 5.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Hardcoded secrets
|
||||
git diff --cached | grep "^+" | grep -iE "(api_key|secret|password|token|passwd)\s*=\s*['\"][^'\"]{6,}['\"]"
|
||||
|
||||
# Shell injection
|
||||
git diff --cached | grep "^+" | grep -E "os\.system\(|subprocess.*shell=True"
|
||||
|
||||
# Dangerous eval/exec
|
||||
git diff --cached | grep "^+" | grep -E "\beval\(|\bexec\("
|
||||
|
||||
# Unsafe deserialization
|
||||
git diff --cached | grep "^+" | grep -E "pickle\.loads?\("
|
||||
|
||||
# SQL injection (string formatting in queries)
|
||||
git diff --cached | grep "^+" | grep -E "execute\(f\"|\.format\(.*SELECT|\.format\(.*INSERT"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Step 3 — Baseline tests and linting
|
||||
|
||||
Detect the project language and run the appropriate tools. Capture the failure
|
||||
count BEFORE your changes as **baseline_failures** (stash changes, run, pop).
|
||||
Only NEW failures introduced by your changes block the commit.
|
||||
|
||||
**Test frameworks** (auto-detect by project files):
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Python (pytest)
|
||||
python -m pytest --tb=no -q 2>&1 | tail -5
|
||||
|
||||
# Node (npm test)
|
||||
npm test -- --passWithNoTests 2>&1 | tail -5
|
||||
|
||||
# Rust
|
||||
cargo test 2>&1 | tail -5
|
||||
|
||||
# Go
|
||||
go test ./... 2>&1 | tail -5
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Linting and type checking** (run only if installed):
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Python
|
||||
which ruff && ruff check . 2>&1 | tail -10
|
||||
which mypy && mypy . --ignore-missing-imports 2>&1 | tail -10
|
||||
|
||||
# Node
|
||||
which npx && npx eslint . 2>&1 | tail -10
|
||||
which npx && npx tsc --noEmit 2>&1 | tail -10
|
||||
|
||||
# Rust
|
||||
cargo clippy -- -D warnings 2>&1 | tail -10
|
||||
|
||||
# Go
|
||||
which go && go vet ./... 2>&1 | tail -10
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Baseline comparison:** If baseline was clean and your changes introduce failures,
|
||||
that's a regression. If baseline already had failures, only count NEW ones.
|
||||
|
||||
## Step 4 — Self-review checklist
|
||||
|
||||
Quick scan before dispatching the reviewer:
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] No hardcoded secrets, API keys, or credentials
|
||||
- [ ] Input validation on user-provided data
|
||||
- [ ] SQL queries use parameterized statements
|
||||
- [ ] File operations validate paths (no traversal)
|
||||
- [ ] External calls have error handling (try/catch)
|
||||
- [ ] No debug print/console.log left behind
|
||||
- [ ] No commented-out code
|
||||
- [ ] New code has tests (if test suite exists)
|
||||
|
||||
## Step 5 — Independent reviewer subagent
|
||||
|
||||
Call `delegate_task` directly — it is NOT available inside execute_code or scripts.
|
||||
|
||||
The reviewer gets ONLY the diff and static scan results. No shared context with
|

the implementer. Fail-closed: unparseable response = fail.
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
delegate_task(
|
||||
goal="""You are an independent code reviewer. You have no context about how
|
||||
these changes were made. Review the git diff and return ONLY valid JSON.
|
||||
|
||||
FAIL-CLOSED RULES:
|
||||
- security_concerns non-empty -> passed must be false
|
||||
- logic_errors non-empty -> passed must be false
|
||||
- Cannot parse diff -> passed must be false
|
||||
- Only set passed=true when BOTH lists are empty
|

SECURITY (auto-FAIL): hardcoded secrets, backdoors, data exfiltration,
|
||||
shell injection, SQL injection, path traversal, eval()/exec() with user input,
|
||||
pickle.loads(), obfuscated commands.
|
||||
|
||||
LOGIC ERRORS (auto-FAIL): wrong conditional logic, missing error handling for
|
||||
I/O/network/DB, off-by-one errors, race conditions, code contradicts intent.
|
||||
|

Combine results from Steps 2, 3, and 5.

## Step 7 — Auto-fix loop
|
||||
|
||||
**Maximum 2 fix-and-reverify cycles.**
|
||||
|
||||
Spawn a THIRD agent context — not you (the implementer), not the reviewer.
|
||||
It fixes ONLY the reported issues:
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
delegate_task(
|
||||
goal="""You are a code fix agent. Fix ONLY the specific issues listed below.
|
||||

||||
---
|
||||
[INSERT security_concerns AND logic_errors FROM REVIEWER]
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
Current diff for context:
|
||||
---
|
||||
[INSERT GIT DIFF]
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
context="Fix only the reported issues. Do not change anything else.",
|
||||
toolsets=["terminal", "file"]
|
||||
)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
After the fix agent completes, re-run Steps 1-6 (full verification cycle).
|
||||
- Passed: proceed to Step 8
|
||||
- Failed and attempts < 2: repeat Step 7
|
||||
- Failed after 2 attempts: escalate to user with the remaining issues and
|
||||
suggest `git stash` or `git reset` to undo
|
||||
|
||||
## Step 8 — Commit
|
||||
|
||||
If verification passed:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
git add -A && git commit -m "[verified] <description>"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The `[verified]` prefix indicates an independent reviewer approved this change.
|
||||
|
||||
## Reference: Common Patterns to Flag
|
||||
|
||||
### Python
|
||||
```python
|
||||
# Bad: SQL injection
|
||||
cursor.execute(f"SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = {user_id}")
|
||||
# Good: parameterized
|
||||
cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = ?", (user_id,))
|
||||
|
||||
# Bad: shell injection
|
||||
os.system(f"ls {user_input}")
|
||||
# Good: safe subprocess
|
||||
subprocess.run(["ls", user_input], check=True)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### JavaScript
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// Bad: XSS
|
||||
element.innerHTML = userInput;
|
||||
// Good: safe
|
||||
element.textContent = userInput;
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Integration with Other Skills
|
||||
|
||||
**subagent-driven-development:** Run this after EACH task as the quality gate.
|
||||
The two-stage review (spec compliance + code quality) uses this pipeline.
|
||||
|
||||
**test-driven-development:** This pipeline verifies TDD discipline was followed —
|
||||
tests exist, tests pass, no regressions.
|
||||
|
||||
**plan:** Validates implementation matches the plan requirements.
|
||||
|
||||
## Pitfalls
|
||||
|
||||
- **Empty diff** — check `git status`, tell user nothing to verify
|
||||
- **Not a git repo** — skip and tell user
|
||||
- **Large diff (>15k chars)** — split by file, review each separately
|
||||
- **delegate_task returns non-JSON** — retry once with stricter prompt, then treat as FAIL
|
||||
- **False positives** — if reviewer flags something intentional, note it in fix prompt
|
||||
- **No test framework found** — skip regression check, reviewer verdict still runs
|
||||
- **Lint tools not installed** — skip that check silently, don't fail
|
||||
- **Auto-fix introduces new issues** — counts as a new failure, cycle continues

# Spike
|
||||
|
||||
Use this skill when the user wants to **feel out an idea** before committing to a real build — validating feasibility, comparing approaches, or surfacing unknowns that no amount of research will answer. Spikes are disposable by design. Throw them away once they've paid their debt.
|
||||
|
||||
Load this when the user says things like "let me try this", "I want to see if X works", "spike this out", "before I commit to Y", "quick prototype of Z", "is this even possible?", or "compare A vs B".
|
||||
|
||||
## When NOT to use this
|
||||
|
||||
- The answer is knowable from docs or reading code — just do research, don't build
|
||||
- The work is production path — use the `plan` skill instead
|
||||
- The idea is already validated — jump straight to implementation
|
||||
|
||||
## If the user has the full GSD system installed
|
||||
|
||||
If `gsd-spike` shows up as a sibling skill (installed via `npx get-shit-done-cc --hermes`), prefer **`gsd-spike`** when the user wants the full GSD workflow: persistent `.planning/spikes/` state, MANIFEST tracking across sessions, Given/When/Then verdict format, and commit patterns that integrate with the rest of GSD. This skill is the lightweight standalone version for users who don't have (or don't want) the full system.
|
||||
|
||||
## Core method
|
||||
|
||||
Regardless of scale, every spike follows this loop:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
decompose → research → build → verdict
|
||||
↑__________________________________________↓
|
||||
iterate on findings
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Decompose
|
||||
|
||||
Break the user's idea into **2-5 independent feasibility questions**. Each question is one spike. Present them as a table with Given/When/Then framing:
|
||||
|
||||
| # | Spike | Validates (Given/When/Then) | Risk |
|
||||
|---|-------|----------------------------|------|
|
||||
| 001 | websocket-streaming | Given a WS connection, when LLM streams tokens, then client receives chunks < 100ms | High |
|
||||
| 002a | pdf-parse-pdfjs | Given a multi-page PDF, when parsed with pdfjs, then structured text is extractable | Medium |
|
||||
| 002b | pdf-parse-camelot | Given a multi-page PDF, when parsed with camelot, then structured text is extractable | Medium |
|
||||
|
||||
**Spike types:**
|
||||
- **standard** — one approach answering one question
|
||||
- **comparison** — same question, different approaches (shared number, letter suffix `a`/`b`/`c`)
|
||||
|
||||
**Good spike questions:** specific feasibility with observable output.
|
||||
**Bad spike questions:** too broad, no observable output, or just "read the docs about X".
|
||||
|
||||
**Order by risk.** The spike most likely to kill the idea runs first. No point prototyping the easy parts if the hard part doesn't work.
|
||||
|
||||
**Skip decomposition** only if the user already knows exactly what they want to spike and says so. Then take their idea as a single spike.
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Align (for multi-spike ideas)
|
||||
|
||||
Present the spike table. Ask: "Build all in this order, or adjust?" Let the user drop, reorder, or re-frame before you write any code.
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Research (per spike, before building)
|
||||
|
||||
Spikes are not research-free — you research enough to pick the right approach, then you build. Per spike:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Brief it.** 2-3 sentences: what this spike is, why it matters, key risk.
|
||||
2. **Surface competing approaches** if there's real choice:
|
||||
|
||||
| Approach | Tool/Library | Pros | Cons | Status |
|
||||
|----------|-------------|------|------|--------|
|
||||
| ... | ... | ... | ... | maintained / abandoned / beta |
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Pick one.** State why. If 2+ are credible, build quick variants within the spike.
|
||||
4. **Skip research** for pure logic with no external dependencies.
|
||||
|
||||
Use Hermes tools for the research step:
|
||||
|
||||
- `web_search("python websocket streaming libraries 2025")` — find candidates
|
||||
- `web_extract(urls=["https://websockets.readthedocs.io/..."])` — read the actual docs (returns markdown)
|
||||
- `terminal("pip show websockets | grep Version")` — check what's installed in the project's venv
|
||||
|
||||
For libraries without docs pages, clone and read their `README.md` / `examples/` via `read_file`. Context7 MCP (if the user has it configured) is also a good source — `mcp_*_resolve-library-id` then `mcp_*_query-docs`.
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Build
|
||||
|
||||
One directory per spike. Keep it standalone.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
spikes/
|
||||
├── 001-websocket-streaming/
|
||||
│ ├── README.md
|
||||
│ └── main.py
|
||||
├── 002a-pdf-parse-pdfjs/
|
||||
│ ├── README.md
|
||||
│ └── parse.js
|
||||
└── 002b-pdf-parse-camelot/
|
||||
├── README.md
|
||||
└── parse.py
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Bias toward something the user can interact with.** Spikes fail when the only output is a log line that says "it works." The user wants to *feel* the spike working. Default choices, in order of preference:
|
||||
|
||||
1. A runnable CLI that takes input and prints observable output
|
||||
2. A minimal HTML page that demonstrates the behavior
|
||||
3. A small web server with one endpoint
|
||||
4. A unit test that exercises the question with recognizable assertions
|
||||
|
||||
**Depth over speed.** Never declare "it works" after one happy-path run. Test edge cases. Follow surprising findings. The verdict is only trustworthy when the investigation was honest.
|
||||
|
||||
**Avoid** unless the spike specifically requires it: complex package management, build tools/bundlers, Docker, env files, config systems. Hardcode everything — it's a spike.
|
||||
|
||||
**Building one spike** — a typical tool sequence:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
terminal("mkdir -p spikes/001-websocket-streaming")
|
||||
write_file("spikes/001-websocket-streaming/README.md", "# 001: websocket-streaming\n\n...")
|
||||
write_file("spikes/001-websocket-streaming/main.py", "...")
|
||||
terminal("cd spikes/001-websocket-streaming && python3 main.py")
|
||||
# Observe output, iterate.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Parallel comparison spikes (002a / 002b) — delegate.** When two approaches can run in parallel and both need real engineering (not 10-line prototypes), fan out with `delegate_task`:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
delegate_task(tasks=[
|
||||
{"goal": "Build 002a-pdf-parse-pdfjs: ...", "toolsets": ["terminal", "file", "web"]},
|
||||
{"goal": "Build 002b-pdf-parse-camelot: ...", "toolsets": ["terminal", "file", "web"]},
|
||||
])
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Each subagent returns its own verdict; you write the head-to-head.
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. Verdict
|
||||
|
||||
Each spike's `README.md` closes with:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
## Verdict: VALIDATED | PARTIAL | INVALIDATED
|
||||
|
||||
### What worked
|
||||
- ...
|
||||
|
||||
### What didn't
|
||||
- ...
|
||||
|
||||
### Surprises
|
||||
- ...
|
||||
|
||||
### Recommendation for the real build
|
||||
- ...
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**VALIDATED** = the core question was answered yes, with evidence.
|
||||
**PARTIAL** = it works under constraints X, Y, Z — document them.
|
||||
**INVALIDATED** = doesn't work, for this reason. This is a successful spike.
|
||||
|
||||
## Comparison spikes
|
||||
|
||||
When two approaches answer the same question (002a / 002b), build them **back to back**, then do a head-to-head comparison at the end:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
## Head-to-head: pdfjs vs camelot
|
||||
|
||||
| Dimension | pdfjs (002a) | camelot (002b) |
|
||||
|-----------|--------------|----------------|
|
||||
| Extraction quality | 9/10 structured | 7/10 table-only |
|
||||
| Setup complexity | npm install, 1 line | pip + ghostscript |
|
||||
| Perf on 100-page PDF | 3s | 18s |
|
||||
| Handles rotated text | no | yes |
|
||||
|
||||
**Winner:** pdfjs for our use case. Camelot if we need table-first extraction later.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Frontier mode (picking what to spike next)
|
||||
|
||||
If spikes already exist and the user says "what should I spike next?", walk the existing directories and look for:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Integration risks** — two validated spikes that touch the same resource but were tested independently
|
||||
- **Data handoffs** — spike A's output was assumed compatible with spike B's input; never proven
|
||||
- **Gaps in the vision** — capabilities assumed but unproven
|
||||
- **Alternative approaches** — different angles for PARTIAL or INVALIDATED spikes
|
||||
|
||||
Propose 2-4 candidates as Given/When/Then. Let the user pick.
|
||||
|
||||
## Output
|
||||
|
||||
- Create `spikes/` (or `.planning/spikes/` if the user is using GSD conventions) in the repo root
|
||||
- One dir per spike: `NNN-descriptive-name/`
|
||||
- `README.md` per spike captures question, approach, results, verdict
|
||||
- Keep the code throwaway — a spike that takes 2 days to "clean up for production" was a bad spike

# Test-Driven Development (TDD)
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
Write the test first. Watch it fail. Write minimal code to pass.
|
||||
|
||||
**Core principle:** If you didn't watch the test fail, you don't know if it tests the right thing.
|
||||
|
||||
**Violating the letter of the rules is violating the spirit of the rules.**
|
||||
|
||||
## When to Use
|
||||
|
||||
**Always:**
|
||||
- New features
|
||||
- Bug fixes
|
||||
- Refactoring
|
||||
- Behavior changes
|
||||
|
||||
**Exceptions (ask the user first):**
|
||||
- Throwaway prototypes
|
||||
- Generated code
|
||||
- Configuration files
|
||||
|
||||
Thinking "skip TDD just this once"? Stop. That's rationalization.
|
||||
|
||||
## The Iron Law
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
NO PRODUCTION CODE WITHOUT A FAILING TEST FIRST
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Write code before the test? Delete it. Start over.
|
||||
|
||||
**No exceptions:**
|
||||
- Don't keep it as "reference"
|
||||
- Don't "adapt" it while writing tests
|
||||
- Don't look at it
|
||||
- Delete means delete
|
||||
|
||||
Implement fresh from tests. Period.
|
||||
|
||||
## Red-Green-Refactor Cycle
|
||||
|
||||
### RED — Write Failing Test
|
||||
|
||||
Write one minimal test showing what should happen.
|
||||
|
||||
**Good test:**
|
||||
```python
|
||||
def test_retries_failed_operations_3_times():
|
||||
attempts = 0
|
||||
def operation():
|
||||
nonlocal attempts
|
||||
attempts += 1
|
||||
if attempts < 3:
|
||||
raise Exception('fail')
|
||||
return 'success'
|
||||
|
||||
result = retry_operation(operation)
|
||||
|
||||
assert result == 'success'
|
||||
assert attempts == 3
|
||||
```
|
||||
Clear name, tests real behavior, one thing.
|
||||
|
||||
**Bad test:**
|
||||
```python
|
||||
def test_retry_works():
|
||||
mock = MagicMock()
|
||||
mock.side_effect = [Exception(), Exception(), 'success']
|
||||
result = retry_operation(mock)
|
||||
assert result == 'success' # What about retry count? Timing?
|
||||
```
|
||||
Vague name, tests mock not real code.
|
||||
|
||||
**Requirements:**
|
||||
- One behavior per test
|
||||
- Clear descriptive name ("and" in name? Split it)
|
||||
- Real code, not mocks (unless truly unavoidable)
|
||||
- Name describes behavior, not implementation
|
||||
|
||||
### Verify RED — Watch It Fail
|
||||
|
||||
**MANDATORY. Never skip.**
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Use terminal tool to run the specific test
|
||||
pytest tests/test_feature.py::test_specific_behavior -v
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Confirm:
|
||||
- Test fails (not errors from typos)
|
||||
- Failure message is expected
|
||||
- Fails because the feature is missing
|
||||
|
||||
**Test passes immediately?** You're testing existing behavior. Fix the test.
|
||||
|
||||
**Test errors?** Fix the error, re-run until it fails correctly.
|
||||
|
||||
### GREEN — Minimal Code
|
||||
|
||||
Write the simplest code to pass the test. Nothing more.
|
||||
|
||||
**Good:**
|
||||
```python
|
||||
def add(a, b):
|
||||
return a + b # Nothing extra
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Bad:**
|
||||
```python
|
||||
def add(a, b):
|
||||
result = a + b
|
||||
logging.info(f"Adding {a} + {b} = {result}") # Extra!
|
||||
return result
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Don't add features, refactor other code, or "improve" beyond the test.
|
||||
|
||||
**Cheating is OK in GREEN:**
|
||||
- Hardcode return values
|
||||
- Copy-paste
|
||||
- Duplicate code
|
||||
- Skip edge cases
|
||||
|
||||
We'll fix it in REFACTOR.
|
||||
|
||||
### Verify GREEN — Watch It Pass
|
||||
|
||||
**MANDATORY.**
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Run the specific test
|
||||
pytest tests/test_feature.py::test_specific_behavior -v
|
||||
|
||||
# Then run ALL tests to check for regressions
|
||||
pytest tests/ -q
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Confirm:
|
||||
- Test passes
|
||||
- Other tests still pass
|
||||
- Output pristine (no errors, warnings)
|
||||
|
||||
**Test fails?** Fix the code, not the test.
|
||||
|
||||
**Other tests fail?** Fix regressions now.
|
||||
|
||||
### REFACTOR — Clean Up
|
||||
|
||||
After green only:
|
||||
- Remove duplication
|
||||
- Improve names
|
||||
- Extract helpers
|
||||
- Simplify expressions
|
||||
|
||||
Keep tests green throughout. Don't add behavior.
|
||||
|
||||
**If tests fail during refactor:** Undo immediately. Take smaller steps.
|
||||
|
||||
### Repeat
|
||||
|
||||
Next failing test for next behavior. One cycle at a time.
|
||||
|
||||
## Why Order Matters
|
||||
|
||||
**"I'll write tests after to verify it works"**
|
||||
|
||||
Tests written after code pass immediately. Passing immediately proves nothing:
|
||||
- Might test the wrong thing
|
||||
- Might test implementation, not behavior
|
||||
- Might miss edge cases you forgot
|
||||
- You never saw it catch the bug
|
||||
|
||||
Test-first forces you to see the test fail, proving it actually tests something.
|
||||
|
||||
**"I already manually tested all the edge cases"**
|
||||
|
||||
Manual testing is ad-hoc. You think you tested everything but:
|
||||
- No record of what you tested
|
||||
- Can't re-run when code changes
|
||||
- Easy to forget cases under pressure
|
||||
- "It worked when I tried it" ≠ comprehensive
|
||||
|
||||
Automated tests are systematic. They run the same way every time.
|
||||
|
||||
**"Deleting X hours of work is wasteful"**
|
||||
|
||||
Sunk cost fallacy. The time is already gone. Your choice now:
|
||||
- Delete and rewrite with TDD (high confidence)
|
||||
- Keep it and add tests after (low confidence, likely bugs)
|
||||
|
||||
The "waste" is keeping code you can't trust.
|
||||
|
||||
**"TDD is dogmatic, being pragmatic means adapting"**
|
||||
|
||||
TDD IS pragmatic:
|
||||
- Finds bugs before commit (faster than debugging after)
|
||||
- Prevents regressions (tests catch breaks immediately)
|
||||
- Documents behavior (tests show how to use code)
|
||||
- Enables refactoring (change freely, tests catch breaks)
|
||||
|
||||
"Pragmatic" shortcuts = debugging in production = slower.
|
||||
|
||||
**"Tests after achieve the same goals — it's spirit not ritual"**
|
||||
|
||||
No. Tests-after answer "What does this do?" Tests-first answer "What should this do?"
|
||||
|
||||
Tests-after are biased by your implementation. You test what you built, not what's required. Tests-first force edge case discovery before implementing.
|
||||
|
||||
## Common Rationalizations
|
||||
|
||||
| Excuse | Reality |
|
||||
|--------|---------|
|
||||
| "Too simple to test" | Simple code breaks. Test takes 30 seconds. |
|
||||
| "I'll test after" | Tests passing immediately prove nothing. |
|
||||
| "Tests after achieve same goals" | Tests-after = "what does this do?" Tests-first = "what should this do?" |
|
||||
| "Already manually tested" | Ad-hoc ≠ systematic. No record, can't re-run. |
|
||||
| "Deleting X hours is wasteful" | Sunk cost fallacy. Keeping unverified code is technical debt. |
|
||||
| "Keep as reference, write tests first" | You'll adapt it. That's testing after. Delete means delete. |
|
||||
| "Need to explore first" | Fine. Throw away exploration, start with TDD. |
|
||||
| "Test hard = design unclear" | Listen to the test. Hard to test = hard to use. |
|
||||
| "TDD will slow me down" | TDD faster than debugging. Pragmatic = test-first. |
|
||||
| "Manual test faster" | Manual doesn't prove edge cases. You'll re-test every change. |
|
||||
| "Existing code has no tests" | You're improving it. Add tests for the code you touch. |
|
||||
|
||||
## Red Flags — STOP and Start Over
|
||||
|
||||
If you catch yourself doing any of these, delete the code and restart with TDD:
|
||||
|
||||
- Code before test
|
||||
- Test after implementation
|
||||
- Test passes immediately on first run
|
||||
- Can't explain why test failed
|
||||
- Tests added "later"
|
||||
- Rationalizing "just this once"
|
||||
- "I already manually tested it"
|
||||
- "Tests after achieve the same purpose"
|
||||
- "Keep as reference" or "adapt existing code"
|
||||
- "Already spent X hours, deleting is wasteful"
|
||||
- "TDD is dogmatic, I'm being pragmatic"
|
||||
- "This is different because..."
|
||||
|
||||
**All of these mean: Delete code. Start over with TDD.**

## Verification Checklist
|
||||
|
||||
Before marking work complete:
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] Every new function/method has a test
|
||||
- [ ] Watched each test fail before implementing
|
||||
- [ ] Each test failed for expected reason (feature missing, not typo)
|
||||
- [ ] Wrote minimal code to pass each test
|
||||
- [ ] All tests pass
|
||||
- [ ] Output pristine (no errors, warnings)
|
||||
- [ ] Tests use real code (mocks only if unavoidable)
|
||||
- [ ] Edge cases and errors covered
|
||||
|
||||
Can't check all boxes? You skipped TDD. Start over.
|
||||
|
||||
## When Stuck
|
||||
|
||||
| Problem | Solution |
|
||||
|---------|----------|
|
||||
| Don't know how to test | Write the wished-for API. Write the assertion first. Ask the user. |
|
||||
| Test too complicated | Design too complicated. Simplify the interface. |
|
||||
| Must mock everything | Code too coupled. Use dependency injection. |
|
||||
| Test setup huge | Extract helpers. Still complex? Simplify the design. |

### Running Tests
|
||||
|
||||
Use the `terminal` tool to run tests at each step:
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
# RED — verify failure
|
||||
terminal("pytest tests/test_feature.py::test_name -v")
|
||||
|
||||
# GREEN — verify pass
|
||||
terminal("pytest tests/test_feature.py::test_name -v")
|
||||
|
||||
# Full suite — verify no regressions
|
||||
terminal("pytest tests/ -q")
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### With delegate_task
|
||||
|
||||
When dispatching subagents for implementation, enforce TDD in the goal:
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
delegate_task(
|
||||
goal="Implement [feature] using strict TDD",
|
||||
context="""
|
||||
Follow test-driven-development skill:
|
||||
1. Write failing test FIRST
|
||||
2. Run test to verify it fails
|
||||
3. Write minimal code to pass
|
||||
4. Run test to verify it passes
|
||||
5. Refactor if needed
|
||||
6. Commit
|
||||
|
||||
Project test command: pytest tests/ -q
|
||||
Project structure: [describe relevant files]
|
||||
""",
|
||||
toolsets=['terminal', 'file']
|
||||
)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### With systematic-debugging
|
||||
|
||||
Bug found? Write failing test reproducing it. Follow TDD cycle. The test proves the fix and prevents regression.
|
||||
|
||||
Never fix bugs without a test.
|
||||
|
||||
## Testing Anti-Patterns
|
||||
|
||||
- **Testing mock behavior instead of real behavior** — mocks should verify interactions, not replace the system under test
|
||||
- **Testing implementation details** — test behavior/results, not internal method calls
|
||||
- **Happy path only** — always test edge cases, errors, and boundaries
|
||||
- **Brittle tests** — tests should verify behavior, not structure; refactoring shouldn't break them
|
||||
|
||||
## Final Rule
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Production code → test exists and failed first
|
||||
Otherwise → not TDD
|
||||
```

||||
