What problem does it solve?
This skill helps teams and agents reliably execute a written implementation plan by running tasks in controlled batches with architect review checkpoints, preventing unsafe or premature changes to main branches.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Batch Execution with Checkpoints: Execute the first N tasks (default first 3) as a batch, mark tasks in_progress, run steps and verifications exactly as specified, and mark completed.
- Critical Review & Halt Conditions: Load and critically review the plan before starting, surface concerns, and immediately stop and ask for clarification on blockers, missing dependencies, or repeated verification failures.
- Workflow Integration: Designed to be used with isolated workspaces and other workflow skills (using-git-worktrees, writing-plans, finishing-a-development-branch) for branch-based development and iterative implementation with feedback loops.
Quick Start
Use the executing-plans skill to load a plan file, run the first three tasks as a verified batch, and produce a concise report for feedback.
