validate-impl

validate-impl is a command for Claude Code from gotalab/cc-sdd. It costs 0 tokens per session (462 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that checks completed implementation work against its requirements, design, and task list. It can automatically find the relevant feature and completed tasks or accept them as arguments.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to validate all completed tasks for a feature, or to check selected task numbers against the specification files.
Why use it?
It reveals whether the code matches the agreed specification instead of relying only on task checkmarks.

About the project

cc-sdd is a spec-driven development workflow for coding agents: it turns approved software specifications into requirements, designs, task plans, and extended autonomous implementation. Developers use it across several AI coding agents, with independent review and task-level continuation for long-running work. The catalogue entries provide commands, skills, agents, and instructions for using this workflow.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

validate-impl scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Implementation Validation

Parse Arguments

  • Feature name: $1 (optional)
  • Task numbers: $2 (optional)

Auto-Detection Logic

Perform detection before invoking Subagent:

If no arguments ($1 empty):

  • Parse conversation history for /kiro:spec-impl <feature> [tasks] patterns
  • OR scan {{KIRO_DIR}}/specs/*/tasks.md for [x] checkboxes
  • Pass detected features and tasks to Subagent

If feature only ($1 present, $2 empty):

  • Read {{KIRO_DIR}}/specs/$1/tasks.md and find all [x] checkboxes
  • Pass feature and detected tasks to Subagent

If both provided ($1 and $2 present):

  • Pass directly to Subagent without detection

Invoke Subagent

Delegate validation to validate-impl-agent:

Use the Task tool to invoke the Subagent with file path patterns:

Task(
  subagent_type="validate-impl-agent",
  description="Validate implementation",
  prompt="""
Feature: {$1 or auto-detected}
Target tasks: {$2 or auto-detected}
Mode: {auto-detect, feature-all, or explicit}

File patterns to read:
- {{KIRO_DIR}}/specs/{feature}/*.{json,md}
- {{KIRO_DIR}}/steering/*.md

Validation scope: {based on detection results}
"""
)

Display Result

Show Subagent summary to user, then provide next step guidance:

Next Steps Guidance

If GO Decision:

  • Implementation validated and ready
  • Proceed to deployment or next feature

If NO-GO Decision:

  • Address critical issues listed
  • Re-run /kiro:spec-impl <feature> [tasks] for fixes
  • Re-validate with /kiro:validate-impl [feature] [tasks]

Note: Validation is recommended after implementation to ensure spec alignment and quality.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
