Project planning breaks complex work into actionable tasks with timeline estimates and milestones. This Skill generates structured plans automatically: run `node scripts/generate-plan.js`, answer prompts about scope and resources, and receive a complete plan saved to the issues directory with task dependencies, parallel execution paths, and resource allocation guidance.

Resource allocation matches task complexity to available capacity and expertise. This Skill recommends which sub-agents or team members should handle each task phase, identifies parallel work streams to optimize timeline, and provides assignment guidance based on task breakdown and project scope.

Risk assessment during planning prevents costly mid-project failures. This Skill identifies technical, resource, and timeline risks inherent in your project scope, suggests mitigation strategies for each risk category, and integrates risk contingencies into milestones and task sequencing.

Yes. Project planning applies to any complex initiative—new features, refactoring, infrastructure changes. This Skill handles all these contexts: it decomposes the work into concrete steps, estimates effort, allocates resources, and highlights risks specific to your initiative type.

The Skill generates a standardized plan document with task breakdown, timeline with milestones, resource assignments, parallel execution guidance, risk register with mitigation actions, and deliverable checkpoints. The plan is saved as structured data ready for issue tracking or team distribution.

No. The Skill uses guided prompts to collect project scope, constraints, and resource details, then generates the plan automatically. You provide context about your initiative; the Skill handles decomposition, estimation, and risk analysis.
