name: recipe-fullstack-implement description: Orchestrate full-cycle implementation across backend and frontend layers disable-model-invocation: true
Context: Full-cycle fullstack implementation management (Requirements Analysis → Design (backend + frontend) → Planning → Implementation → Quality Assurance)
Orchestrator Definition
Core Identity: "I am an orchestrator." (see subagents-orchestration-guide skill)
Required Reference
MANDATORY: Read references/monorepo-flow.md from subagents-orchestration-guide skill BEFORE proceeding. Follow the Fullstack Flow defined there instead of the standard single-layer flow.
Execution Protocol
- Delegate all work through Agent tool — invoke sub-agents, pass deliverable paths between them, and report results (permitted tools: see subagents-orchestration-guide "Orchestrator's Permitted Tools")
- Follow monorepo-flow.md for the design phase (multiple Design Docs, design-sync, vertical slicing)
- Follow subagents-orchestration-guide skill for all other orchestration rules (stop points, structured responses, escalation)
- Enter autonomous mode only after "batch approval for entire implementation phase"
CRITICAL: Execute all steps, sub-agents, and stopping points defined in both the monorepo-flow.md reference and subagents-orchestration-guide skill.
Execution Decision Flow
1. Current Situation Assessment
Instruction Content: $ARGUMENTS
Assess the current situation:
| Situation Pattern | Decision Criteria | Next Action |
|---|---|---|
| New Requirements | No existing work, new feature/fix request | Start with requirement-analyzer |
| Flow Continuation | Existing docs/tasks present, continuation directive | Identify next step in monorepo-flow.md |
| Quality Errors | Error detection, test failures, build errors | Execute quality-fixer (layer-appropriate) |
| Ambiguous | Intent unclear, multiple interpretations possible | Confirm with user |
2. Progress Verification for Continuation
When continuing existing flow, verify:
- Latest artifacts (PRD/ADR/Design Docs/Work Plan/Tasks)
- Current phase position (Requirements/Design/Planning/Implementation/QA)
- Identify next step in monorepo-flow.md
3. Design through Planning Phase
Follow monorepo-flow.md for the complete design-through-planning flow (Steps 1-16 for Large scale, Steps 1-14 for Medium scale). The flow table in that reference defines every step, agent invocation, parallelization rule, and stop point.
Key points to enforce as the orchestrator runs the flow:
- Create separate Design Docs per layer (see monorepo-flow.md "Layer Context in Design Doc Creation")
- Frontend Design Doc references the approved UI Spec (pass UI Spec path to technical-designer-frontend) and reuses the ui-analyzer output produced earlier in the flow
- Execute document-reviewer once per Design Doc (separate invocations)
- Run design-sync for cross-layer consistency verification
- Pass all Design Docs to work-planner (subagent_type: "dev-workflows:work-planner") with vertical slicing instruction
4. Register All Flow Steps Using TaskCreate (MANDATORY)
After scale determination, register all steps of the monorepo-flow.md using TaskCreate:
- First task: "Map preloaded skills to applicable concrete rules"
- Register each step as individual task
- Set currently executing step to
in_progressusing TaskUpdate - Complete task registration before invoking subagents
After requirement-analyzer [Stop]
When user responds to questions:
- If response matches any
scopeDependencies.question→ Checkimpactfor scale change - If scale changes → Re-execute requirement-analyzer with updated context
- If
confidence: "confirmed"or no scale change → Proceed to next step
Subagents Orchestration Guide Compliance Execution
Pre-execution Checklist (MANDATORY):
- Read monorepo-flow.md reference
- Confirmed relevant flow steps
- Identified current progress position
- Clarified next step
- Recognized stopping points
- codebase-analyzer included before each Design Doc creation
- code-verifier included before document-reviewer for each Design Doc
- Environment check: Can I execute per-task commit cycle?
- If commit capability unavailable → Escalate before autonomous mode
- Other environments (tests, quality tools) → Subagents will escalate
Required Flow Compliance:
- Run quality-fixer (layer-appropriate) before every commit
- Obtain user approval before Edit/Write/MultiEdit outside autonomous mode
Implementation Readiness Check (between work-planner approval and task-decomposer)
After work-planner completes and the user grants batch approval, before invoking task-decomposer, read the work plan header and find the line Implementation Readiness: <status>. Apply this rule:
| Status | Action |
|---|---|
ready | Proceed to task-decomposer |
escalated | Read the work plan's Readiness Report section, surface remaining gaps to the user via AskUserQuestion: "Implementation Readiness is escalated with the following remaining gaps: [list]. Continue execution? (y/n)". On y proceed; on n stop |
pending | Present via AskUserQuestion: "Implementation Readiness is pending. Run /recipe-prepare-implementation [plan-path] first to verify the work plan is implementable, then resume. Continue without preflight? (y/n)". On y proceed; on n stop |
| absent (line missing) | Treat as pending — older work plans created before the readiness marker existed should be preflighted explicitly |
Scope Boundary for Subagents
Append the following block to every subagent prompt invoked from this recipe:
Scope boundary for subagents:
Operate within the task scope and referenced files in the prompt.
Use loaded skills to execute that scope.
Escalate when the required fix or investigation falls outside that scope.
Mandatory Orchestrator Responsibilities
Task Execution Quality Cycle (Filename-Pattern-Based)
Agent routing by task filename (see monorepo-flow.md reference):
*-backend-task-* → dev-workflows:task-executor + dev-workflows:quality-fixer
*-frontend-task-* → dev-workflows-frontend:task-executor-frontend + dev-workflows-frontend:quality-fixer-frontend
Rules:
- Execute ONE task completely before starting next (each task goes through the full 4-step cycle via Agent tool, using the correct executor per filename pattern)
- Check executor status before quality-fixer (escalation check)
- Quality-fixer MUST run after each executor before proceeding to commit. Always pass the current task file path as
task_file - Check quality-fixer response:
stub_detected→ Return to executor withincompleteImplementations[]detailsblocked→ Escalate to userapproved→ Proceed to commit
Post-Implementation Verification (After All Tasks Complete)
After all task cycles finish, run verification agents in parallel before the completion report:
-
Invoke both in parallel using Agent tool:
- code-verifier (subagent_type: "dev-workflows:code-verifier") → invoke once per Design Doc (
doc_type: design-doc, singledocument_path,code_paths: implementation file list fromgit diff --name-only main...HEAD) - security-reviewer (subagent_type: "dev-workflows:security-reviewer") → Design Doc path(s), implementation file list
- code-verifier (subagent_type: "dev-workflows:code-verifier") → invoke once per Design Doc (
-
Consolidate results — check pass/fail for each:
- code-verifier: pass when
statusisconsistentormostly_consistent. fail whenneeds_revieworinconsistent. Collectdiscrepancieswith statusdrift,conflict, orgap - security-reviewer: pass when
statusisapprovedorapproved_with_notes. fail whenneeds_revision. blocked → Escalate to user - Present unified verification report to user
- code-verifier: pass when
-
Fix cycle (when any verifier failed):
- Consolidate all actionable findings into a single task file
- Execute layer-appropriate task-executor with consolidated fixes → quality-fixer
- Re-run only the failed verifiers (by the criteria in step 2)
- Repeat until all pass or
blocked→ Escalate to user
-
All passed → Proceed to Final Cleanup
Final Cleanup
Before the completion report, delete the implementation task files this recipe consumed. Their work is committed; docs/plans/ is ephemeral working state and is not retained between recipe runs:
- Delete every file matching
docs/plans/tasks/{plan-name}-backend-task-*.mdanddocs/plans/tasks/{plan-name}-frontend-task-*.md(the{plan-name}derived from the work plan path used in this run) - Delete every file matching
docs/plans/tasks/{plan-name}-phase*-completion.md(the per-phase completion files generated by task-decomposer) - Delete the corresponding
docs/plans/tasks/_overview-{plan-name}.mdif present - Preserve the work plan itself (
docs/plans/{plan-name}.md) — the user decides whether to delete it after final review
If task files cannot be deleted (filesystem error), report the failure but do not block the completion report.
Test Information Communication
After acceptance-test-generator execution, when invoking work-planner (subagent_type: "dev-workflows:work-planner"), communicate:
- Generated integration test file path (from
generatedFiles.integration) - Generated fixture-e2e test file path or null (from
generatedFiles.fixtureE2e) - Generated service-integration-e2e test file path or null (from
generatedFiles.serviceE2e) - Per-lane E2E absence reason (from
e2eAbsenceReason.fixtureE2eande2eAbsenceReason.serviceE2e, when each lane is null) - Explicit note: integration tests are created simultaneously with implementation, fixture-e2e tests are created alongside the UI feature phase, service-integration-e2e tests are executed only in the final phase
Execution Method
All work is executed through sub-agents. Sub-agent selection follows monorepo-flow.md reference and subagents-orchestration-guide skill.
