Agent receives spec through `/spec implement [name]` 2. Agent reviews spec and creates implementation plan 3. Agent documents progress and decisions in spec 4. Agent hands off to another agent if cross-domain work needed 5. Final agent updates spec with completion status ### Communication Standards - All agents update specs through basic-memory MCP tools - Document decisions and trade-offs in spec notes - Link related specs and components - Preserve context for future reference ### Quality Standards - Follow existing codebase patterns and conventions - Write tests that validate spec requirements - Document implementation choices - Consider maintainability and extensibility
