Cursor Implementation Loop
Delegate implementation work to a dedicated implementer subagent, then review its diff, send it back to iterate, gate on the full test suite, and ship it as a PR. Use this whenever the user wants a separate model to write code, mentions handing off / delegating implementation, asks to work through a plan or spec unit-by-unit with a subagent doing the coding, or wants a review-and-merge loop wrapped around delegated output — and also when resuming such a loop ("keep going", "next unit", "继续下一个"). It encodes constraints that are expensive to rediscover: the implementer self-reports success, must not run the full test suite by default, must not touch git, and its report is a claim rather than evidence. Cursor port of codex-implementation-loop. This loop expects an approved plan or an equivalently precise spec; settle an unsolved high-level goal into a plan first, using the cursor-engineering-mode skill (it ships in this same plugin).

From the source SKILL.md
The implementer subagent writes the code; you own the judgment. A delegated implementer is fast but it self-reports success, and pointing it at a long test suite wastes the machine you share with it. You give it a precise spec, then be the thing that actually verifies and ships. This includes bug fixes: a bug found at review, at the gate, or later is a unit like any other — you diagnose and spec, the implementer implements. Editing code directly "because it's faster" silently inverts the division of labor and costs review its independence.
What this skill does
Cursor Implementation Loop is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the engineering-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/cursor-implementation-loop/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
Who uses this skill
The Cursor Implementation Loop Claude Code skill is built for software engineers, backend developers, full-stack teams, and technical leads building and maintaining production systems. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 196,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).

When should I use the Cursor Implementation Loop skill?
Use Cursor Implementation Loop when your Claude Code task falls under the Engineering category — specifically in the engineering misc area. Claude Code auto-discovers installed skills and invokes the right one based on the task description, so you can also ask Claude directly (e.g. "use Cursor Implementation Loop" or describe the task and let Claude pick). Browse related skills at
/category/engineering/.
What is a Claude Code skill and how does the Cursor Implementation Loop skill fit in?
A Claude Code skill is a
SKILL.md file that lives under
~/.claude/skills/<name>/ and tells the Claude Code CLI agent how to perform a specific task (instructions, prompts, allowed tools). Skills are auto-discovered at session start. Cursor Implementation Loop is one of 67,000+ skills indexed in the open ClaudSkills catalog, classified under the Engineering category. Learn more at
