# Implement Sprint (Efficient)

Automated sprint implementation with strict context management. Runs all phases without stopping, presents results for approval.

**This is a context-efficient variant of `/implement-sprint`.** Differences are marked with `[EFFICIENT]`.

## Prerequisites

- Sprint spec exists at `docs/sprints/current/spec.md`
- Sprint state at `docs/sprints/current/state.yaml`
- Contracts are fully defined (no ambiguity)
- Clean git state (commit or stash any work first)

## `[EFFICIENT]` Context Budget Rules

These rules prevent context exhaustion. Follow them exactly.

### Rule 1: Orchestrator Reads Minimally

You (the orchestrator) read ONLY these files:

| File | Purpose |
|------|---------|
| `docs/sprints/current/spec.md` | Sprint spec (required) |
| `docs/sprints/current/state.yaml` | Phase status (required) |

**Do NOT read source files, architecture docs, config models, or any `.py` file.** The implementer agent reads what it needs. Your job is orchestration, not comprehension.

### Rule 2: Subagent Prompts Are Brief

Pass to the implementer agent:
- Phase number and title (from spec)
- Sprint spec path: `docs/sprints/current/spec.md`
- One sentence summarizing the phase goal

**Do NOT paste code, file contents, contracts, or implementation details into prompts.** The implementer reads the spec itself. Target: prompt under 500 characters.

### Rule 3: TaskOutput — Never Double-Read

When calling TaskOutput for a subagent:
- Use `timeout: 600000` (10 minutes) on the FIRST call
- If it times out, call TaskOutput again with `timeout: 600000`
- **NEVER call TaskOutput on a subagent that already returned a result** — even partial

One TaskOutput call per subagent. Period.

### Rule 4: No Accumulation Between Phases

After committing a phase, you have the git history as your record. Do NOT retain mental summaries of what each phase did. The commit messages and state.yaml track progress.

## Automation Model

```

+--------------------------------------+
|  AUTOMATED (no human intervention)   |
|                                      |
|  For each phase:                     |
|    1. Implement (implementer agent)  |
|    2. Run pre-commit                 |
|    3. Run tests                      |
|    4. Review (reviewer agent)        |
|    5. Run demo                       |
|    6. Analyze data (if applicable)   |
|    7. Commit phase                   |
|                                      |
|  After all phases:                   |
|    8. Run review-sprint              |
|    9. Run all demos twice            |
|   10. Run completion checks          |

## Process Details

### Phase Implementation (Automated)

For each phase in the sprint:

#### Step 1: Implement

Launch the **implementer** agent. `[EFFICIENT]` Your prompt MUST follow this template exactly:

```
Implement Phase {N}: {Title} for the current sprint.

Sprint spec: docs/sprints/current/spec.md
Read the spec, focus on Phase {N}. Read source files as needed.

OUTPUT RULES (mandatory):
- Final response MUST be under 2000 characters
- List files modified/created (paths only, no contents)
- Test result: pass count and fail count
- One-line summary per file change
- Do NOT include code snippets, stack traces, or implementation details
- Do NOT re-read files you have already read
- If a demo fails after 3 attempts, report the error and stop

ITERATION LIMITS:
- Max 3 attempts to fix any single failing test
- Max 3 attempts to fix a demo script
- Never read the same file more than twice
```

**Do NOT add anything else to the prompt.** No file contents, no contracts, no code patterns.

Use `run_in_background: true`. Then call TaskOutput with `timeout: 600000`.

#### Step 2: Pre-commit

```bash
pre-commit run --all-files
```

**If pre-commit fails:** Fix issues yourself (these are usually formatting) and re-run. Do not launch a subagent for this.

#### Step 3: Tests

```bash
python -m pytest --cov=src/fabulexa --cov-fail-under=85
uv pip install -e .
```

**If tests fail:** Stop automation, report failure to user.

#### Step 4: Review

Launch the **reviewer** agent. `[EFFICIENT]` Brief prompt:

```
Review Phase {N}: {Title} of the current sprint.

Sprint spec: docs/sprints/current/spec.md
Focus on Phase {N} only.

Check the git diff for this phase:
  git diff HEAD~1

OUTPUT RULES (mandatory):
- Final response MUST be under 1500 characters
- Use the APPROVED or REVISIONS NEEDED format from your instructions
- List only violations with file:line, not explanations of principles
```

Use `run_in_background: false` (reviewer is fast, no need for background).

**If revisions needed:** Fix issues yourself using the reviewer's file:line references. Re-run gates. Re-review. Limit: 3 attempts per phase.

#### Step 5: Run Demo

```bash
python docs/sprints/current/demos/phase_N_*.py
```

Demo must run without errors and exit 0.

#### Step 6: Analyze Data (If Applicable)

If the demo produces simulation output, launch the **data-analyst** agent:

```
Analyze output from Phase {N} demo.

Demo script: docs/sprints/current/demos/phase_{N}_*.py
Run the standard validation workflow from your instructions.

OUTPUT RULES (mandatory):
- Final response MUST be under 1500 characters
- Use VALIDATION: PASS or VALIDATION: ISSUES FOUND format
```

#### Step 7: Commit Phase

Update state.yaml to show status.

```bash
git add -A
git commit -m "$(cat <<'EOF'
Sprint [Name] - Phase N: [Title]

- [What this phase implemented]
- Tests: PASS
- Pre-commit: PASS

Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
EOF
)"
```

### Post-Implementation (Automated)

After all phases complete:

#### Step 8: Review Sprint

Run `/review-sprint` for comprehensive fresh-eyes audit.

#### Step 9: Run All Demos Twice

```bash
for demo in docs/sprints/current/demos/phase_*.py; do
    python "$demo"
done

for demo in docs/sprints/current/demos/phase_*.py; do
    python "$demo"
done
```

Both runs must produce consistent output.

#### Step 10: Completion Checks

```bash
pre-commit run --all-files
git status --porcelain | grep "^??"
grep -rn "# Future:" src/
grep -rn "pass$" src/
```

### Present to User

Show:
1. **Summary:** What was built, files changed
2. **Tests:** Pass/fail count, coverage percentage
3. **Review report:** Issues found
4. **Demos:** Sample output proving it works

### User Decision

#### ACCEPT

Commits already made per-phase. Update state.yaml and archive sprint.

#### FIX

1. Fix the specific issues
2. Run pre-commit
3. Commit the fix
4. Re-run review-sprint
5. Present again

#### RESET

```bash
git log --oneline -10
git reset --hard <pre-sprint-commit>
git clean -fd
```

## `[EFFICIENT]` Context Budget Summary

| What | Budget |
|------|--------|
| Orchestrator file reads | 2 files (spec + state.yaml) |
| Implementer prompt | < 500 chars + template |
| Reviewer prompt | < 300 chars + template |
| Data-analyst prompt | < 300 chars + template |
| TaskOutput calls per subagent | Exactly 1 |
| TaskOutput timeout | 600000ms (10 min) |
| Implementer final response | < 2000 chars |
| Reviewer final response | < 1500 chars |
| Data-analyst final response | < 1500 chars |

## Agent Summary

| Agent | Role | When | Background |
|-------|------|------|------------|
| **implementer** | Write code, tests, demos | Each phase | Yes (600s timeout) |
| **reviewer** | Check quality, find issues | After each phase | No (foreground) |
| **data-analyst** | Verify output realism | After demos with output | No (foreground) |

## Failure Modes

**Gate fails:** Report which gate, what error. User decides: fix or reset.

**Reviewer rejects 3 times:** Report the persistent issue. User decides: fix manually or reset.

**Demo crashes:** Report stack trace. User decides: fix or reset.

**Data analyst finds anomalies:** Report findings. User decides: acceptable or not.
