Workbench Implementation

Use this skill for coding, ops changes, scripts, automation specs, and local repository edits.

Implementation Loop

1. Inspect current state.
2. Identify the true owner of the behavior.
3. Patch the smallest viable surface.
4. Verify on the real path.
5. Record the outcome in the right durable file when the change affects workbench operations.

Goal Mode

When an issue contains /goal or GOAL_MODE: yes, use workbench-goal-mode before editing:

• post GOAL_LOCK with objective, owner, non-goals, closeout gates, and operator-call conditions;
• keep working after local fixes until the locked objective is verified;
