implementation

A skill for making verified changes to an identified software project.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build features, fix diagnosed bugs, change interfaces or architecture, perform migrations, add integrations, or automate builds and releases.
Why use it?
It guides the agent to isolate the problem, define observable behavior, prove tests can fail, make a focused change, and verify the integrated result.

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

implementation 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 yesterday.

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 — 276 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Implementation

Core principle

Implementation changes through evidence, not vibes: isolate first, specify the next observable behavior, prove the test can fail, make the smallest correct change, then refactor without changing behavior.

Implementation is the mutation module. It may edit scoped project artifacts after the isolation gate passes, but it does not decide that work is shipped. Completion means "implemented with proof and handed to a change-review/shipping checkpoint," not finalized.

Load when

Use Implementation when a named software or digital-product initiative needs:

  • a feature, screen, endpoint, command, migration, or integration implemented;
  • a diagnosed fix applied;
  • architecture, module boundaries, interfaces, or contracts changed;
  • an approved plan from task-creation executed;
  • independent implementation slices delegated when a subagent tool is available;
  • supporting artifacts only within an already-active behavior-changing implementation: required project configuration, documentation, content, or scripts.

Entry fit

An explicit invocation selects the full Implementation behavior.

A Keystone handoff selects the full skill when a project change needs this mutation-and-proof contract.

For automatic entry, load the full skill when the prompt's subject is project-bound, the requested change alters executable software behavior, and this mutation-and-proof contract materially improves the change. The current directory alone does not establish project scope.

For automatic routing of a mechanical single-file configuration edit, one-off script, or other standalone small mutation that does not need project-specific context or proof gates, use the direct editing path and verify the requested result proportionately.

Not for

Do not use Implementation for:

  • routing unclear work: use context-survey
  • context-surveying unknowns without mutation: use context-survey
  • shaping requirements or acceptance criteria: use product-planning
  • decomposing large work before implementation: use task-creation
  • diagnosing a failure whose cause is unknown: use root-cause-analysis
  • reviewing completed changes: use change-review
  • releasing, merging, publishing, or finalizing: use shipping

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.

implementation is a skill published in the GitHub repository static-var/Keystone (4 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 54 tokens to every session and 2,968 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 2026-08-31.
