sparc-refine
Run the SPARC Refinement and Completion phases — review code, improve test coverage, validate against specification, and generate documentation
npx skills add ruvnet/ruflo --skill sparc-refine --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# SPARC Refinement + Completion Run Phases 4 and 5 of the SPARC methodology: iteratively improve through code review and testing, then finalize with validation, documentation, and deployment readiness. ## When to use After the Architecture phase is complete and its gate has been passed. This skill covers the final two phases that bring a feature from implemented to production-ready. ## Steps ### Phase 4 — Refinement 1. **Retrieve all prior artifacts** — call `mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__memory_search` with namespace `sparc-phases` and query for the feature slug. Load spec (acceptance criteria), pseudocode, and architecture. 2. **Retrieve phase state** — call `mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__memory_search` with namespace `sparc-state` to confirm we are in Phase 4. 3. **Code review** — review the implementation against: a. **Specification compliance**: does every acceptance criterion have a corresponding code path? b. **Architecture adherence**: do modules follow the defined boundaries and dependency rules? c. **Pseudocode fidelity**: does the implementation match the designed algorithms? d. **Code quality**: naming conventions, single responsibility, error handling, no dead code e.

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add ruvnet/ruflo --skill sparc-refine --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From ruvnet/ruflo, a repository with 67,015 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
