novahiz-implement, step 5 of the Novahiz pipeline: write code in increments that leave the system usable. The cycle runs implement, test, verify, commit, then the next slice, under rules of simplicity, scope discipline, safe defaults, and reversibility. Use when writing or changing code for an approved task. Triggers on: implement, code, write the code, add the endpoint, build the component, apply the change, make the test pass.

# novahiz-implement: write in clean increments **Step 5 of 6** in the pipeline. You write what the task asks. Scope creep has no place here. Previous: `novahiz-analyse`. Next: `novahiz-converge`. ## Increment cycle ``` implement -> test -> verify -> commit -> next slice ``` Each slice starts from the previous one. When it lands, the system compiles and the tests pass. ## Open and close the step ``` novahiz_task action="start" id="<todo>" ... work ... novahiz_task action="done" id="<todo>" proof="<command and result>" ``` `done` on a step of kind `verify` needs proof. Missing proof keeps the step open. ## Choose the first slice - Vertical by default: it crosses layers and shows up working end to end. - Contract-first: freeze types and interfaces, then both sides advance together. - Risk-first: prove the least certain piece. ## The gate will trigger Writing code fires rules. On frontend design work, R13 requires `novahiz-humanizer`, `ui-slop-remover` and `ui-craft-rules`, and R14 requires `impeccable` (critique/audit/polish playbooks). Outside design, those skills are not required by the gate. Load design skills before writing, ahead of the refusal. ## Writing rules **Simplicity.** Ask what the simplest thing that could work looks like. Fewer lines. An abstraction must earn its complexity. Three similar lines beat a premature abstraction. Write the naive and obviously correct version, then optimize once tests prove the behavior. **Scope.** Touch only what the ta
