From addyosmani

Implement tasks incrementally — build, test, verify, commit. Add "auto" to run the whole plan in one approved pass.

The instructions Claude Code reads when this command runs.

Invoke the agent-skills:incremental-implementation skill alongside agent-skills:test-driven-development.

## Modes

- **`/build`** — implement the *next* pending task, then stop (careful, one slice at a time).
- **`/build auto`** — generate the plan if needed, get a single approval, then implement *every* task without stopping between them.

`$ARGUMENTS` selects the mode. Treat `auto` (canonical) or `all` as autonomous mode; anything else (or empty) is the default single-task mode. Note: autonomous mode is not faster *per task* — it runs the same test-driven loop — it only removes the human stepping *between* tasks.

## Default: one task

Pick the next pending task from the plan. Then:

1. Read the task's acceptance criteria
2. Load relevant context (existing code, patterns, types)
3. Write a failing test for the expected behavior (RED)
4. Implement the minimum code to pass the test (GREEN)
5. Run the full test suite to check for regressions
6. Run the build to verify compilation
7. Commit with a descriptive message
8. Mark the task complete and stop

## Autonomous: the whole plan (`/build auto`)

Use this once a spec exists and you want to collapse plan + build into one run. It removes the manual stepping between tasks — **not** the verification. Every task still earns a passing test and its own commit.

1. **Require a spec.** Look only for a spec at a known path: `SPEC.md` at
