Feature Skill

Implement a complete feature end-to-end: $ARGUMENTS

This skill orchestrates the full development cycle — design → code → test — for a self-contained feature.

---

Phase 1 — Understand and Plan

1.1 Read context

# Detect stack
ls package.json go.mod composer.json 2>/dev/null
 
# Understand existing patterns
find src app internal -name "*.ts" -o -name "*.go" -o -name "*.php" 2>/dev/null | head -20

Read 2–3 existing similar features/services to match the codebase's patterns exactly. Read the relevant process file for the detected stack.

1.2 Present a Feature Plan

Before writing anything, output this plan and wait for explicit approval:

Feature: <name>
 
Layers affected:
  - Controller:   <endpoint(s) it will expose>
  - Service:      <business logic — what rules does it enforce?>
  - Repository:   <what data does it read/write?>
  - Events:       <does this emit any events? what?>
 
New files:
  - <file path> — <purpose>
  - ...
 
Modified files:
  - <file path> — <what changes>
 
Interfaces / contracts to define:
  - <IXxxRepository> — methods: ...
  - <IXxxService> — methods: ...
 
DTOs:
  - <XxxRequestDTO> — fields: ...
  - <XxxResponseDTO> — fields: ...
 
Error classes:
  - <XxxNotFoundError>, <XxxAlreadyExistsError>, etc.
 
Tests to write:
  - Unit: <service> — <N> test cases
  - Integration: <repository> — <N> test cases
 
Open questions (if any):
  - <question> — assumption I'll use if you don't answer

---

Phase 2 — Implement (after approval)

Write files in this strict order — each layer depends on the one above:

2.1 Contracts First (no dependencies)

• Interfaces for the service and repository
• DTOs (input and output shapes)
• Custom error/exception classes
• Enums if new domain constants are needed

2.2 Repository Layer

• Implement the repository interface against the ORM/DB
• All DB access lives here — no raw queries in services
• Match the DB naming conventions from ~/.claude/process/db_process.md

2.3 Service Layer

• Inject repository via its interface
• Enforce business rules here — validation, domain logic, event emission
• No DB knowledge — only calls repository methods
• Use early returns for guard clauses

2.4 Controller / Handler Layer

• Inject service via its interface
• Parse and validate request input (Form Request / Zod / binding)
• Call exactly one service method per endpoint
• Map service output to HTTP response via DTO/Resource
• Zero business logic here

2.5 Route / DI Wiring

• Register the route pointing to the new controller
• Bind interfaces to implementations in the DI container / service provider
• Never skip this — untested wiring is a common failure point

---

Phase 3 — Tests (spawn test-writer agent)

Spawn the test-writer agent to write in parallel:

Unit tests (service layer):

• Mock the repository
• Cover: happy path, each error condition, each business rule branch
• Format: it should <behaviour> when <condition>

Integration tests (repository layer):

• Use real test database
• Cover: create, read, update, delete — verify data actually persists
• Cover: constraints and edge cases (duplicate, not found, cascade)

Feature / HTTP tests (where applicable):

• Test the full request → response cycle
• Cover: valid input returns correct response, invalid input returns correct error code

---

Phase 4 — Self-Verify

# Node.js
npx tsc --noEmit && npx jest --testPathPattern="<feature>"
 
# Go
go build ./... && go test ./... -run "TestOrder"
 
# PHP
./vendor/bin/pint && ./vendor/bin/phpstan analyse && ./vendor/bin/pest --filter="order"

Fix any type errors, linting failures, or test failures before finishing.
