Activation

This is the description your AI agent reads to decide when to run this skill — the better it matches your request, the more reliably it fires.

High-autonomy "chef" for implementing new features from scratch. Handles code scanning, architectural research, technical specification, and full-stack implementation with a focus on "clean code" and project idiomatics. Use when the user says "cook this feature", "implement X", or "build Y".

Key capabilities

  • Scan codebase for existing patterns and components
  • Analyze data flow and existing feature structures
  • Draft concise technical specifications
  • Implement features with atomic commits
  • Follow project's established style and idioms
  • Verify implementation with builds and tests

How it works

This skill transforms high-level feature requests into implementations through a structured workflow. It involves research, technical specification, idiomatic coding, and verification.

Inputs & outputs

When to use cook

  • Implement new feature
  • Perform architectural research
  • Build UI component
  • Full-stack implementation

About this skill

The "Cook" Workflow

This skill transforms a high-level feature request into a production-ready implementation through a structured "kitchen" process.

Phase 1: Preparation (Research & Scan)

  • Scan: Use grep_search and glob to find existing patterns, related components, and architectural precedents.
  • Analyze: Understand how data flows and how existing features are structured in this specific codebase.
  • Ingredients: Identify the "ingredients" needed (new classes, UI components, API endpoints, or database changes).

Phase 2: The Recipe (Clear Spec)

  • Draft Spec: Create a concise technical plan.
  • Check-in: Present the plan to the user.
  • Clarify: If anything is ambiguous (UI details, edge cases), ASK for confirmation before touching the stove.

Phase 3: Cooking (Implementation)

  • Atomic Commits: (Mental or actual if requested) Build the feature in logical, self-contained steps.
  • Idiomatic Code: Follow the project's established style (naming, patterns, libraries).
  • Clean Code: Prioritize readability, DRY principles, and proper error handling.

Phase 4: Taste Test (Verification)

  • Verify: Run the build (./gradlew assembleDebug) and relevant tests.
  • Cleanup: Remove any temporary debug logs, comments, or unused imports.

Phase 5: Serving (Final Review)

  • Report: Summarize what was built and how to test it.

Guardrails

  • Don't Over-Season: Stay within the scope of the requested feature.
  • Fresh Ingredients: Always use the latest project conventions found in GEMINI.md.
  • Safety First: Never proceed with high-impact architectural changes without an approved "Recipe".

When not to use it

  • When high-impact architectural changes are required without an approved technical plan

Limitations

  • Requires user approval for the technical plan before implementation
  • Does not proceed with high-impact architectural changes without an approved plan
  • Emphasizes following existing project conventions

How it compares

This skill provides a structured, multi-phase workflow for feature implementation, ensuring research, planning, idiomatic coding, and verification, which is more complete than ad-hoc coding.
