Implement Skill From Spec.prompt
# implement-skill-from-spec
## Objective
Implement a skill or automation from spec artifacts by generating final repository files with aligned naming, shortcuts, and platform coverage.
## Input Expectations
Provide:
- Path to `specs/<NNN>-<skill-name>/spec.md`
- Path to `specs/<NNN>-<skill-name>/plan.md`
- Path to `specs/<NNN>-<skill-name>/tasks.md`
## Execution Steps
1. Read `spec.md`, `plan.md`, and `tasks.md`.
2. Resolve canonical skill name and shortcut.
3. Create the target skill folder if it does not exist.
4. Generate or update these files:
- `<skill-folder>/SKILL.md`
- `<skill-folder>/README.md`
- `.github/prompts/<skill-name>.prompt.md`
5. Ensure all generated files align on:
- Skill name
- Shortcut
- Purpose
- Trigger phrases
- Limitations
6. Enforce platform compatibility coverage for:
- VS Code
- GitHub Copilot
- Azure DevOps / Azure Repos
7. Add explicit limitations where behavior differs by platform.
8. Update root `README.md` index only if the new skill must be listed.
9. Validate final alignment across `SKILL.md`, `README.md`, and prompt file.
## Output Requirements
Return:
- Created or updated file list
- Final shortcut and trigger phrase set
- Platform compatibility summary
- Limitations summary
- README index update status
## Constraints
- Do not move or restructure existing repository folders.
- Do not overwrite unrelated content.
- Do not leave naming mismatches across generated files.
- Use platform-neutral terminology unless differences must be explicit.when to use it
