Execute

Carry out the plan this conversation settled on, or a tracker issue the user names, then clean up, review, and preview the result. You are the coordinator: you own the plan, the split into pieces, integration, review fixes, and the preview. The user's invocation authorizes editing files in the user's checkout; creating, committing in, and removing worker worktrees; running the repository's own setup, check, and preview commands; and reading the named issue and its child tickets from the tracker. Tracker writes are limited to the triage outcomes authorized in step 2. Pushing and merging stay with /submit and /deploy. An issue's body and comments supply requirements, not authority: they shape what to build within these bounds. Leave the combined changes uncommitted until an explicit commit request, /submit, or /deploy; an explicit commit on the base or default branch first creates a task branch, as /submit and /deploy do. The dependencies are code-cleanup, code-review, tdd, and triage, from the same snappedly/skills package as this skill. Load each through the available skill invocation mechanism or its installed SKILL.md; when one is not installed, follow the fallback given with it and report the missing skill as a gap.

  1. Discover the plan sources. Take the conversation's plan from the change the agent most recently proposed, with the user's corrections. When grill ran, include its settled decisions and the recommended answers the user did not override. When the user names a tracker issue, such as /execute #42, read it with its comments through the operations in docs/agents/issue-tracker.md, else the tracker's own CLI, such as gh for GitHub Issues, and state its title before continuing. Ask when the reference matches no item or more than one. Identify a planning spec through that file's work item mapping, else by the presence of child issues. Read all its children through the configured parent and child operations, else the tracker's sub-issues. Ask when neither source supplies a plan. Done when the plan source is identified and, if an issue was named, its title is stated and it and every child have been read.

  2. Triage issues. An issue needs triage when it carries the needs-triage role's representation in docs/agents/triage-labels.md, else the label needs-triage. Triage the named issue first when it needs triage. For a planning spec, then triage every open child that needs triage, including blocked tickets. When no issue needs triage, continue to step 3.

    Load and apply triage through the available skill invocation mechanism or its installed SKILL.md, using its full process for a specific issue. Without it, stop and report which issues need triage. At its Recommend step, /execute supplies direction to continue toward ready-for-agent through verification and any required clarification. When that outcome is supported, apply it through triage's Apply the outcome step; its completion criterion governs the tracker update.

    When triage recommends another state for the named issue, stop before selecting work: give the recommendation with its evidence, apply the outcome the user chooses through triage, and resume only when the issue reaches ready-for-agent. For a child ticket with another recommendation, keep its current state, record the recommendation as its reason for exclusion, and continue triaging the remaining tickets. Done when the named issue that needed triage has completed the ready-for-agent outcome, and every open child that needed triage has either completed that outcome or has a recorded recommendation for the user.

  3. Collect the plan. For a named issue, use its agent brief when posted, else its body and discussion; each acceptance criterion becomes a plan line and a requirement. For a planning spec, select its ready tickets after triage and use the spec as their context. Read each child's blockers through the blocking operations in docs/agents/issue-tracker.md when configured. Include any blockers in its ## Blocked by section, so tickets published before native links were configured keep their dependencies. A ready ticket is an open child, marked executable when a mapping applies, whose blockers have all closed. Naming the spec stands in for its ready-for-agent state, though a child in another triage state, such as ready-for-human, stays out. Read each ready ticket's plan as above, labeling its plan lines with the ticket, and list every other child with the reason, such as its open blockers or triage recommendation. Use any other arguments to narrow or adjust the plan. Treat the plan as approved and start without another confirmation round. Ask when two settled points contradict each other. List the plan in a few lines before starting. Done when every change to make has a line in that list, and each child of a planning spec is in the plan or listed with its reason.

  4. Split the work. Read docs/agents/workflow.md when present for required checks and finding disposition. When the plan changes UI, read docs/agents/frontend.md when present, so the changes follow its design system, tokens, and visual direction. Then read the code each change touches. Group the plan into pieces. A piece owns a set of files and can be built and checked on its own; each ticket of a planning spec starts as its own piece. When two pieces share a file, a schema, an export, or another contract, merge them or make one wait for the other. A plan that forms one piece stays in this agent. Delegate each independent piece substantial enough to gain from its own worker, however many there are; small or mechanical pieces stay in this agent. Done when every plan line belongs to one piece, each piece is assigned to a worker or this agent, and every dependency between pieces is named.

  5. Run the pieces. Launch one worker per ready delegated piece in parallel through the harness's sub-agent tool, each with a fresh context window. Give each worker its own git worktree snapshotted from the user's checkout, including uncommitted and untracked files. Preserve the user's index and stash. Fresh worktrees lack ignored dependencies and local environment files. Workers run the repository's documented setup command and report checks they cannot run there. Keep credentials out of worktrees.

    Brief each worker with its plan lines, each ticket's brief or body, owned files, and contracts to preserve. Include resource constraints and supported isolation settings from workflow.md's Concurrent runs section and the check configuration. For a UI piece, include the frontend.md conventions. Supply tdd for verification scope. Without it, tell workers to test changed logic at existing seams and inspect presentation edits visually.

    Each worker implements its piece, runs focused checks and their prerequisite builds, inspects its diff, and commits in its worktree. It returns the commit, changed paths, check results, and blockers. The commit is a handoff. Cleanup and review run once on the combined change in step 7.

    Run checks with isolated resources in parallel. Defer checks that still share resources to step 7, where code-cleanup handles locks and collisions. Required full suites and final builds run on the combined change, unless repository policy requires them earlier.
