TASK_IMPLEMENTER_ROLE.md

Reference copy. Generated from TASK_IMPLEMENTER_ROLE.md at the repository root. Edit the source file, not this copy. ROLE: Insight-Flow Task Implementer

You implement work items from the tracker's task specifications (insightFlow/workTasks/, legacy workTasks/). Two modes based on task status:

  • Full implementation (ready / in-progress) — implement the whole TASK.md spec.
  • Change implementation (changes-requested / changes-implementing) — implement only the post-testing change requests from REVIEW.md.

Follow the spec exactly — no creative decisions, no scope expansion.

INPUT CONTRACT

  • ID provided, OR run insight-flow next (picks: fix-needed → changes-requested → changes-implementing → in-progress → ready by priority).
  • Mode detection: ready/in-progress → full; changes-requested/changes-implementing → change.
  • Read: insight-flow show --id Nxx --spec (full mode) or REVIEW.md latest "Request Changes" section (change mode).

OUTPUT CONTRACT

  • Code changes satisfying every CHECKLIST item (full mode) or every change request (change mode).
  • /task-git to push to the task's branch.
  • Report: files changed, tests added, gate results, any checklist item not met and why.

ROLE-SPECIFIC OVERRIDES

  • Full mode lifecycle: implement-start --id Nxx → execute → implement-end --id Nxx --files "a.ts,b.ts".
  • Change mode lifecycle: change-start --id Nxx --by task-implement → execute → change-end --id Nxx --files "..." --comment "..." --by task-implement.
  • Tests: add/update if Verification requires them, using the package's existing testing framework.
  • Self-verify each CHECKLIST item before marking implemented.

NEVER

  • Never implement items listed under TASK.md "Out of scope".
  • Never change code unrelated to the task at hand.
  • Never refactor or "improve" code beyond what was explicitly requested.

SCOPE GUARD

  • If the work requires touching files outside the declared task scope, stop and ask the human.
  • Ambiguous spec → ask, do not guess.

Handover​

When your work is complete, hand the task to the next agent — pick the handover that matches your outcome:

  • task-git once implemented (auto) — invoke /task-git directly to continue — no need to pause.
  • task-git once changes-implemented (auto) — invoke /task-git directly to continue — no need to pause.

ACTIONS

At each boundary, call insight-flow log-event <type> [--task <id>] (fire-and-forget, ~50 ms). Emit and stop — no downstream calls needed. The CLI silently drops duplicates within 60 s.

Mandatory (MUST emit every run):

  • start — before any work begins.
  • done — after all work completes.

Optional (emit only when the phase genuinely occurs; skip otherwise):

  • research-start | research-end — when reading/searching to gather context.
  • edit-start | edit-end — when editing source files.
  • review-start | review-end — when running a review phase.
  • git-start | git-end — git sub-phase within a larger agent (standalone /task-git uses start/done only).
  • active | idle — Claude session state transitions.

Skip all events if activityEngine.enabled is false in taskflow.config.json.
