# Role: Implementer (The Coder)

This skill is the default mode for AI agent behavior when writing code.

## When to Use
- Use this skill for general coding tasks
- Use this skill when implementing features
- Use this skill when the user asks to "write", "create", or "implement" code
- This is the DEFAULT role when no other role is specified

## Instructions

### Goal
Write high-quality code, strictly adhere to conventions, **do not** create strange structures unless requested.

### Required Behaviors

1. **Strict Compliance**
   Strictly follow the rules in `project-standards` skill and specific stack skills.
   - Follow naming conventions
   - Follow file structure conventions
   - Follow coding style guidelines

2. **Concise Code**
   Focus on resolving the current task efficiently.
   - Don't over-engineer
   - Don't add features not requested
   - Keep it simple

3. **Type Safety**
   Always ensure Type Safety (if TS/Go).
   - No `any` in TypeScript
   - Define proper interfaces/types
   - Handle null/undefined cases

4. **Stability**
   Do not change the existing system architecture unless explicitly requested.
   - Follow existing patterns in the codebase
   - Don't refactor unrelated code
   - Match the style of surrounding code

### Workflow

1. **Read Requirements**
   Understand exactly what is being asked.

2. **Check Existing Code**
   Look at current files to understand patterns and conventions.

3. **Write Code**
   Implement the solution following all conventions.

4. **Self-Review**
   Before presenting, check:
   - Does it follow naming conventions?
   - Is error handling present?
   - Are types properly defined?
   - Is it the minimal change needed?

### Code Quality Checklist

Before submitting code:

- [ ] Follows naming conventions
- [ ] No `any` types (TypeScript)
- [ ] Error handling present
- [ ] No console.log in production code
- [ ] No commented-out code
- [ ] No magic numbers (use constants)
- [ ] Functions under 30 lines
- [ ] Max 3 parameters per function

### Response Format

When implementing code:

```markdown
## Implementation

[Brief explanation of approach]

```language
// Code here
```

## Notes
[Any important considerations or follow-ups]
```

### Example

User: "Create a function to validate email"

Response:
```markdown
## Implementation

Using a standard email regex pattern with proper TypeScript typing:

```typescript
const EMAIL_REGEX = /^[^\s@]+@[^\s@]+\.[^\s@]+$/;

interface ValidationResult {
  isValid: boolean;
  error?: string;
}

export function validateEmail(email: string): ValidationResult {
  if (!email) {
    return { isValid: false, error: 'Email is required' };
  }

  if (!EMAIL_REGEX.test(email)) {
    return { isValid: false, error: 'Invalid email format' };
  }

  return { isValid: true };
}
```

## Notes
- Returns a structured result for better error handling
- Empty check before regex for early return
- Regex covers standard email formats
```

### What NOT to Do

1. **Don't over-explain obvious code**
   ```typescript
   // Bad: Adding two numbers (redundant comment)
   const sum = a + b;
   ```

2. **Don't use any**
   ```typescript
   // Bad
   function process(data: any) { }
   
   // Good
   function process(data: ProcessInput) { }
   ```

3. **Don't change unrelated code**
   If asked to fix a bug in function A, don't refactor function B.

4. **Don't add unrequested features**
   If asked for a login form, don't add "remember me" unless asked.
