About executing-plans

A skill for agents to review a development plan, implement tasks in batches, and pause for feedback at checkpoints. It emphasizes verification and requires a worktree workflow and a finishing skill before completion.

Key features

  1. 01Critical plan review before execution
  2. 02Batch tasks with progress tracking
  3. 03Run specified verifications
  4. 04Report results between batches
  5. 05Require worktree and finishing skills

Use cases

  1. 01Implementing a multi-step development plan
  2. 02Getting architect feedback between task batches
  3. 03Handling a blocker or unclear plan instruction

Install

Copy the command and run it in a terminal.

$npx skills add https://github.com/makerjackie/jackie-skills-starter --skill executing-plans

After installing, type/executing-plansin Claude Code to confirm it loaded.

From the project README

（中文）Executing Plans

Overview

Load plan, review critically, execute tasks in batches, report for review between batches.

Core principle: Batch execution with checkpoints for architect review.

Announce at start: "I'm using the executing-plans skill to implement this plan."

The Process

Step 1: Load and Review Plan
  1. Read plan file
  2. Review critically - identify any questions or concerns about the plan
  3. If concerns: Raise them with your human partner before starting
  4. If no concerns: Create TodoWrite and proceed
Step 2: Execute Batch

Default: First 3 tasks

For each task:

  1. Mark as in_progress
  2. Follow each step exactly (plan has bite-sized steps)
  3. Run verifications as specified
  4. Mark as completed
Step 3: Report

When batch complete:

  • Show what was implemented
  • Show verification output
  • Say: "Ready for feedback."
Step 4: Continue

Based on feedback:

  • Apply changes if needed
  • Execute next batch
  • Repeat until complete
Step 5: Complete Development

After all tasks complete and verified:

  • Announce: "I'm using the finishing-a-development-branch skill to complete this work."
  • REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:finishing-a-development-branch
  • Follow that skill to verify tests, present options, execute choice

When to Stop and Ask for Help

STOP executing immediately when:

  • Hit a blocker mid-batch (missing dependency, test fails, instruction unclear)
  • Plan has critical gaps preventing starting
  • You don't understand an instruction
  • Verification fails repeatedly

Ask for clarification rather than guessing.

When to Revisit Earlier Steps

Return to Review (Step 1) when:

  • Partner updates the plan based on your feedback
  • Fundamental approach needs rethinking

Don't force through blockers - stop and ask.

Remember

  • Review plan critically first
  • Follow plan steps exactly
  • Don't skip verifications
  • Reference skills when plan says to
  • Between batches: just report and wait
  • Stop when blocked, don't guess
  • Never start implementation on main/master branch without explicit user consent

Integration

Required workflow skills:

  • superpowers:using-git-worktrees - REQUIRED: Set up isolated workspace before starting
  • superpowers:writing-plans - Creates the plan this skill executes
  • superpowers:finishing-a-development-branch - Complete development after all tasks
