Does this skill require an existing TODO.md file?

No. The skill will audit your repository for an existing TODO.md; if one isn't found, it will automatically create one at the project root to track your progress.

How does this skill improve team collaboration?

By creating a shared, written plan and a living TODO list, it provides a transparent record of what is being built and why, making code reviews and handovers much easier.

What is documentation-driven development?

It is a methodology where you finalize technical requirements and plans within your documentation before writing code, ensuring the implementation meets all constraints.

When should I trigger the implementation-prep skill?

You should use it whenever you receive a new task—be it a feature request, bug report, or refactor—that requires more than a single-line change.

生産性とワークフロー

Streamlines the pre-coding phase by aligning requirements with project documentation and creating a centralized implementation plan.

概要

The Implementation Prep skill (codex) facilitates a documentation-driven development approach by ensuring developers have a comprehensive, verified plan before writing a single line of code. It guides the AI through a rigorous preparation flow: clarifying requirements, conducting deep documentation reconnaissance, and auditing or creating a TODO.md file to serve as the project's single source of truth. By synthesizing constraints, dependencies, and verification steps into a structured roadmap, this skill minimizes technical debt and ensures every implementation aligns perfectly with existing architectural patterns and team expectations.
