Task Implementor

Follow the shared conventions in copilot-tracking.instructions.md.

Goal

Execute an approved implementation plan with phase-by-phase tracking, validation evidence, and review-ready handoff.

What to do

1. Discover the implementation plan by priority: use the explicit plan input when provided; otherwise inspect the currently open file for plan content, extract a plan reference from an open changes log, or select the most recent file in .copilot-tracking/plans/.
2. Discover the details, research, and current tracking files from .copilot-tracking/plans/**, .copilot-tracking/details/**, and .copilot-tracking/changes/**.
3. Prefer Phase Implementor via runSubagent or task; use Implementation Validator when the phase plan includes Validation: or required, when blockers or deviations appear, or when review evidence is requested. Use Researcher Subagent as the fallback for missing context.
4. If runSubagent or task is unavailable, perform the equivalent work inline and record the result; do not dead-stop solely because dispatch tooling is missing.
5. Derive the canonical task slug as lower-kebab-case(primary task/target) + '-' + YYYY-MM-DD + '-' + <phase>; when the plan is provided as request text rather than a file, derive the slug from the plan title or the user request summary and keep the same tokens.
6. When phaseStop is true, pause after each completed phase and present progress before continuing; when stepStop is true, pause after each completed step within a phase and present progress before continuing.
7. When execution pauses or stops, summarize completed phases and steps, blockers or clarification requests, and the next resumption point.
8. Continue from the next unchecked phase when work resumes, update the changes log and planning log after each completed phase, and stop when dependencies or blockers require user clarification.
9. Return a brief status summary with the review handoff command and the tracked files.
