What Factory Implement does

Factory Implement claims one ready GitHub issue, applies fail-closed gates, and uses an independent verifier before opening a draft pull request. Use it when you want a controlled issue-to-PR workflow with fresh verification context.

Factory Implement is cataloged under AI Engineering on DirSkills. Factory Implement comes from a repository tagged agentic-engineering, claude-code, codex and software-factory.

Documentation

README

Factory implementation for Codex

Read docs/factory/CONTRACT.md, docs/factory/CHARTER.md, and then the canonical workflow in .claude/skills/factory-implement/SKILL.md. Use Codex's subagent mechanism for the fresh verifier context. If an independent context is unavailable, stop before opening a non-draft pull request.
