task-execution-engine
About
This skill executes implementation tasks directly from design documents using markdown checkboxes for task management. It's designed for implementing features from design outputs, resuming interrupted work, and batch task execution. Key capabilities include tracking task status, handling failures with reasons, and providing command-line tools for task progression.
Documentation
Feature Pipeline
Execute implementation tasks directly from design documents. Tasks are managed as markdown checkboxes - no separate session files needed.
Quick Reference
# Get next task
python3 scripts/task_manager.py next --file <design.md>
# Mark task completed
python3 scripts/task_manager.py done --file <design.md> --task "Task Title"
# Mark task failed
python3 scripts/task_manager.py fail --file <design.md> --task "Task Title" --reason "..."
# Show status
python3 scripts/task_manager.py status --file <design.md>
Task Format
Tasks are written as markdown checkboxes in the design document:
## Implementation Tasks
- [ ] **Create User model** `priority:1` `phase:model`
- files: src/models/user.py, tests/models/test_user.py
- [ ] User model has email and password_hash fields
- [ ] Email validation implemented
- [ ] Password hashing uses bcrypt
- [ ] **Implement JWT utils** `priority:2` `phase:model`
- files: src/utils/jwt.py
- [ ] generate_token() creates valid JWT
- [ ] verify_token() validates JWT
- [ ] **Create auth API** `priority:3` `phase:api` `deps:Create User model,Implement JWT utils`
- files: src/api/auth.py
- [ ] POST /register endpoint
- [ ] POST /login endpoint
See references/task-format.md for full format specification.
Execution Loop
LOOP until no tasks remain:
1. GET next task (task_manager.py next)
2. READ task details (files, criteria)
3. IMPLEMENT the task
4. VERIFY acceptance criteria
5. UPDATE status (task_manager.py done/fail)
6. CONTINUE
Unattended Mode Rules
- NO stopping for questions
- NO asking for clarification
- Make autonomous decisions based on codebase patterns
- If blocked, mark as failed and continue
Status Updates
Completed task:
- [x] **Create User model** `priority:1` `phase:model` ✅
- files: src/models/user.py
- [x] User model has email field
- [x] Password hashing implemented
Failed task:
- [x] **Create User model** `priority:1` `phase:model` ❌
- files: src/models/user.py
- [ ] User model has email field
- reason: Missing database configuration
Resume / Recovery
To resume interrupted work, simply run again with the same design file:
/feature-pipeline docs/designs/xxx.md
The task manager will find the first uncompleted task and continue from there.
Integration
This skill is typically triggered after /feature-analyzer completes:
User: /feature-analyzer implement user auth
Claude: [designs feature, generates task list]
Design saved to docs/designs/2026-01-02-user-auth.md
Ready to start implementation?
User: Yes / 开始实现
Claude: [executes tasks via task-execution-engine]

langchain
MetaLangChain is a framework for building LLM applications using agents, chains, and RAG pipelines. It supports multiple LLM providers, offers 500+ integrations, and includes features like tool calling and memory management. Use it for rapid prototyping and deploying production systems like chatbots, autonomous agents, and question-answering services.
Algorithmic Art Generation
MetaThis skill helps developers create algorithmic art using p5.js, focusing on generative art, computational aesthetics, and interactive visualizations. It automatically activates for topics like "generative art" or "p5.js visualization" and guides you through creating unique algorithms with features like seeded randomness, flow fields, and particle systems. Use it when you need to build reproducible, code-driven artistic patterns.
webapp-testing
TestingThis Claude Skill provides a Playwright-based toolkit for testing local web applications through Python scripts. It enables frontend verification, UI debugging, screenshot capture, and log viewing while managing server lifecycles. Use it for browser automation tasks but run scripts directly rather than reading their source code to avoid context pollution.
requesting-code-review
DesignThis skill dispatches a code-reviewer subagent to analyze code changes against requirements before proceeding. It should be used after completing tasks, implementing major features, or before merging to main. The review helps catch issues early by comparing the current implementation with the original plan.
