Executing a plan in controlled batches means breaking it into small, reviewable steps (default 3 tasks per batch) with mandatory checkpoints between each. This prevents errors by pausing for human feedback after each batch before proceeding to the next, ensuring alignment with your goals throughout implementation.

A critical plan review identifies potential issues, gaps, and architectural misalignments upfront before any implementation work begins. This upfront review reduces rework risk and ensures the plan's steps are correct and complete before committing resources to execution.

Use batched execution when implementing multi-step systems requiring human oversight, such as new architecture deployments or large feature rollouts. Checkpoints let you catch mistakes early, verify each batch meets requirements, and adjust direction based on feedback before continuing.

Track each task through defined statuses (in_progress, completed) within each batch. After completing a batch, generate a batch report summarizing results and outcomes. This provides visibility into progress and creates a documented record of what was completed and verified.

Yes. Batched execution with checkpoints automates the workflow structure—processing tasks in defined batches and updating statuses automatically—while preserving mandatory human review points between batches. This combines process automation with intentional human decision gates.

After a batch completes and passes review, the next batch begins execution. Upon final batch completion, the skill coordinates with downstream completion workflows to finish the development branch, ensuring seamless handoff to the next phase of your project.
