Executing Plans

Iterative development with review checkpoints works by executing tasks in controlled batches, reporting progress, and pausing for feedback after each batch. This method prevents costly errors by ensuring critical review of plans and adherence to specified steps before proceeding.

Ensuring adherence to implementation steps requires a critical review of the plan before execution begins to identify potential issues early. By processing tasks sequentially and incorporating feedback at mandatory checkpoints, you verify each phase meets specified requirements before moving forward.

You can use an implementation plan file for batch processing by providing a detailed plan, such as one named 'implementation_plan.md'. The execution skill processes the tasks outlined in the file, breaking them down into manageable batches with built-in checkpoints to ensure quality and alignment.

You need to pause execution for feedback during iterative development after completing a predefined batch of tasks, which defaults to the first three. Pausing at these review checkpoints allows you to report progress, incorporate feedback, and verify the batch before proceeding to the next.

Batch processing execution supports complex feature development by breaking down multi-step plans into manageable batches. It processes tasks sequentially, pausing after each batch to ensure each phase is reviewed by a human partner before the next begins, maintaining architectural integrity.

Executing a full implementation plan without checkpoints risks costly errors and misalignment because it skips the critical review needed between batches. Pausing after each batch ensures thorough review of the plan, verifies specified steps, and incorporates feedback before proceeding to the next phase.
