What is Implementator?
Implementator is a skill pack for AI coding agents. It makes Claude Code or Codex CLI work through the same eight-stage loop on every repo: plan, code, tests and checks, self-test, review, manual test, commit and close. Four of those stages wait for you.
Which coding agents does it work with?
Claude Code and Codex CLI are the two we have tested, on Windows. Other agents can connect to the store, but the pack has not been tested on them, and Linux and macOS have not been tested yet.
How is it different from a CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md file?
A rules file tells an agent how your repo works. Implementator writes those rules for each repo from what it finds there, then adds the process around them: a plan you approve, independent review, a manual test, and a record of each change that survives the session.
Do I have to install anything?
No. It is delivered through the Agensi store over MCP, so your agent reads the skills live. You need git and Python 3.8 or newer. gh or glab and a Playwright MCP server are optional.
Can the agent skip the review or the tests?
No setting can switch off the plan approval, the review or the manual test. The rules are still instructions, not locks, so an agent can drift. One script does refuse to mark work resolved without a plan, a review, a self-test record and a manual run on disk.
Does it work with Jira and GitHub?
Yes. It reads a named ticket from Jira or another tracker if your agent has that connector, and it opens pull requests and watches CI on GitHub. It never merges. You do.
Where does my work live?
In a separate git repo of notes that belongs to you: plans, reviews, test records and a dated journal. The next session picks up from there.
How much usage does a run take?
One full run from setup to a closed feature used about $3.70 on Claude Code. Our largest test, from a mockup to a merged pull request with several review rounds, used about $19. The model settings are how you tune this.
