Implementation Orchestrator FAQs

Question 1

What is the Impl skill in Claude Code?

Accepted Answer

The Impl skill is an orchestration tool that takes an approved plan (usually a plan.md file) and executes it by breaking it down into specific steps, assigning them to agents, and verifying the output.

Question 2

What is the Decision Journal feature?

Accepted Answer

The Decision Journal is a timestamped log that records design choices, plan deviations, and trade-offs made during implementation, ensuring context is preserved even after auto-compaction.

Question 3

What happens if a plan is ambiguous?

Accepted Answer

The skill follows a fail-closed behavior; if it finds multiple plans or cannot determine the correct chronology, it will stop and ask the user for an explicit path rather than guessing.

Question 4

How does it handle multiple tasks at once?

Accepted Answer

It uses adaptive team sizing to spawn up to four parallel sub-agents, grouping sequential-dependent steps together while running independent tasks concurrently to maximize efficiency.

Question 5

Does this skill support frontend debugging?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it includes a specific Web Debug Loop Protocol for browser-runtime scope, capturing before-and-after evidence for UI and DOM-related regressions.
