What this skill does

Workflow Patterns

Guide for implementing tasks using Conductor's TDD workflow, managing phase checkpoints, handling git commits, and executing the verification protocol that ensures quality throughout implementation.

When to Use This Skill

Implementing tasks from a track's plan.md
Following TDD red-green-refactor cycle
Completing phase checkpoints
Managing git commits and notes
Understanding quality assurance gates
Handling verification protocols
Recording progress in plan files

Detailed patterns and worked examples

Detailed pattern documentation lives in references/details.md. Read that file when the navigation tier above is insufficient.

Best Practices

Never skip RED: Always write failing tests first
Small commits: One logical change per commit
Immediate updates: Update plan.md right after task completion
Wait for approval: Never skip checkpoint verification
Rich git notes: Include context that helps future understanding
Coverage discipline: Don't accept coverage below target
Quality gates: Check all gates before marking complete
Sequential phases: Complete phases in order
Document deviations: Note any changes from original plan
Clean state: Each commit should leave code in working state
Fast feedback: Run relevant tests frequently during development
Clear blockers: Address blockers promptly, don't work around them

Installation

Copy a source-pinned command for your client. You run it yourself.

Destination: .claude/skills/workflow-patterns · pinned to the source commit

# Run from your project root
git clone https://github.com/wshobson/agents.git .skillboard-tmp
git -C .skillboard-tmp checkout 38e19c20d2b154510b0e624a2e3e186b19b5c527
mkdir -p ".claude/skills"
cp -r ".skillboard-tmp/plugins/conductor/skills/workflow-patterns" ".claude/skills/"
rm -rf .skillboard-tmp

Review the source before running. This copies files into your project; it is not a one-click install and does not verify runtime safety.

New here? Step-by-step setup – from installing the agent to using the skill

1
Install Git
Install Git with your package manager (Debian/Ubuntu shown; use dnf/pacman on others). Official download.
```
sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y git
```
2
Install Claude Code
Requires Node.js 18+. Install the CLI globally: Official docs. (command-line tool)
```
npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code
```

Use it in Claude Code
Open Claude Code in your project. It reads skills from the folder above, so workflow-patterns is now available. Always review the source before using it – static checks cannot prove runtime safety.

Security & Audits

Scanner static-checks@0.1.0 · commit 38e19c20d2b1. Static checks cannot prove runtime safety – review the source and the exact diff before installing. How checks work.

No static rules matched. This is not a safety guarantee.
