implement-change

implement-change is a skill for Claude Code from matheusPavaneli/workbench. It costs 51 tokens per session (1,035 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for carrying out an already reviewed software-change plan while limiting edits to the files and steps listed in that plan.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps resume planned work, implement steps in order, write regression tests, check the branch, and record verification results. A regression test checks that a previously broken behavior stays fixed.
Why use it?
It keeps implementation aligned with the agreed scope and requires the named tests and verification evidence before the work is considered complete.

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 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 81 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

implement-change

wb <args>    # wb not on PATH: python <this skill's directory>/../../lib/wb.py <args>

Steps

  1. Read the plan's own slices, not the whole document: sdd get <KEY> --section steps and --section files. No sdd.json? Run plan-change first. A failed audit blocks every command here by design — fix the plan, do not work around it.

    Picking work back up mid-way? status <KEY> says which planned files are already changed and what is left, without re-reading the plan.

  2. Check where you are. flow show reports the branch this work starts from, whether the current branch is protected, and any validation branch the commits will later be carried onto. flow start <KEY> --title "..." prints the branch name and base to use.

  3. Implement one step at a time, in order, touching only the listed files. Follow the repo's existing patterns. Nothing tidied, renamed or upgraded along the way: the plan's file list is the scope, and it was reviewed.

  4. Write the tests the plan named. sdd get <KEY> --section tests. Each entry says what must hold — assert that, not that a function was called. impl verify fails, naming it, on any target the branch never changed.

  5. Check the scope. impl check <KEY> after each step or two: planned files ok/pending, companion (a test, lockfile or generated file tied to a planned one), other (another plan's), overlap. It fails on a file nothing accounts for; with hooks on, that edit is refused before it lands.

  6. Verify. impl verify <KEY> runs the plan's verify commands and writes .workflow/<KEY>/evidence.md. It refuses anything that is not a known test, build or lint runner — run those yourself and say so. The first time a command appears in a checkout nothing runs: approve <KEY> then shows the commands and a token. Show it to the user; never approve on their behalf. The evidence is bound to the tree it saw, so verify last, then commit. For a bug fix, impl verify <KEY> --regression: each regression target runs on the commit the branch left, with the new tests carried in, and must fail there, then pass here. Report the result either way.

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.
