implement-change

An implementation workflow for carrying out an approved plan for a software change. It uses a specification, which describes the intended behavior, and a task list.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to implement planned code changes, update the task list, and verify each step.
Why use it?
It keeps implementation aligned with the agreed requirements and makes progress visible. It also calls for checks such as builds or tests along the way.

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

implement-change 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 2d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 103 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Implement change

Execute the plan in plan.md while strictly preserving the intent in <change-name>_spec.md. Work sequentially, validate each step, keep progress updated. Refine or reorder tasks only for correctness; do not change underlying intent without approval. No silent workarounds, no drifting from the spec.

Inputs

  • Docs/<scope>/Specs/<change-name>/<change-name>_spec.md
  • Docs/<scope>/Specs/<change-name>/plan.md
  • Repository code and docs

Outputs

  • Code changes that satisfy <change-name>_spec.md
  • Updated plan.md with progress
  • Proposed <change-name>_spec.md updates (for approval only—do not apply without approval)

Workflow

1. Load context

  • Read <change-name>_spec.md and plan.md
  • Confirm scope and change folder
  • Identify current progress (checked tasks)

2. Execute tasks in order

For each unchecked task:

  1. Understand the task and affected files
  2. Implement the change
  3. Validate (build/run/tests or targeted checks as appropriate)
  4. Mark the task complete in plan.md

Proceed sequentially unless reordering is clearly required for correctness.

3. Validation

  • Prefer targeted checks when a full build is unnecessary
  • Ensure changes align with Success Criteria in <change-name>_spec.md
  • Ask the user to test or validate only if the agent cannot run the needed checks

4. Failure handling

If a task fails:

  1. Fix obvious issues and retry once
  2. If still failing: stop, explain the blocker, propose next steps, ask how to proceed

Do not introduce workarounds that change intent or degrade quality without approval.

5. Task evolution (allowed)

  • Refine wording for clarity
  • Split tasks into smaller steps
  • Reorder tasks if needed for correctness

Do not alter task intent in a way that would change the spec.

6. Spec change handling

If implementation reveals incorrect assumptions, missing constraints, or a better approach that changes intent:

  1. Propose the spec update clearly
  2. Do not implement that divergent path yet
  3. Wait for user approval
  4. Update <change-name>_spec.md only after approval

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.

implement-change is a skill published in the GitHub repository Jed-Tech/spar-kit (17 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 62 tokens to every session and 734 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
