What it does

Ss Implement is an agent skill from Serial-Studio/Serial-Studio. Phase 4 of Serial Studio's spec-driven workflow: execute an approved tasks.md top to bottom, verifying each task and keeping the checklist current. Use after /ss-tasks is approved, or "implement the spec", "build it", "work the tasks". Honors the hotpath, verify, and trust rules; never commits without explicit permission.

Its SKILL.md is about 970 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Spec-driven development. The repository describes itself as: Open-source telemetry dashboard. Supports UART, BLE, MQTT, Modbus, CAN Bus and more.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Spec-driven development

Example prompts

  • “implement the spec”
  • “build it”
  • “work the tasks”
  • “/ss-implement”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Read before writing. Read the target files in full this session — hotpath files
  2. Name the binding invariants before the first Edit: restate in chat, in your own
  3. Make the change with targeted Edit calls — edit, don't rewrite. Follow
  4. Verify the task: python scripts/code-verify.py --check . Resolve new
  5. Mark it done — tick the task's box in tasks.md so the file stays a live record.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 34c87a4. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Ss Implement loads about 973 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 84 tokens; SKILL.md has 492 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~84
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~973

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 492 words (~973 tokens).

“Execute the approved tasks.md one task at a time, verifying as you go. This is the only phase that writes code. See doc/claude/spec-driven.md.”
