SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Load a written implementation plan and run it in a separate session with structured review checkpoints to minimize execution risk and maximize alignment with expectations.

Core Features & Use Cases

Load plan, review critically, execute all tasks, report when complete.
Announce at start: "I'm using the executing-plans skill to implement this plan."
Note: This skill works best with subagents; use subagent-driven development if available.
Integration: REQUIRED: using-git-worktrees, writing-plans, finishing-a-development-branch
Bundled references: references/best-practices.md

Quick Start

Load the plan, review it for concerns, then execute each step in order and report progress at each checkpoint.

FAQPage Schema

How do I execute an implementation plan with structured review checkpoints?▼

Executing an implementation plan involves loading the written plan, performing a critical review, following bite-sized steps, running verifications, and referencing the best-practices guide before proceeding to the next checkpoint.

How do subagents enhance plan execution and task tracking?▼

Subagents enhance plan execution by distributing staged work across isolated sessions, maximizing alignment with expectations and minimizing execution risk through structured verification and clear handoffs.

Do I need git worktrees to run staged development tasks?▼

Yes, using git worktrees is required for executing plans, providing isolated environments for staged work, verification, and clear handoffs during development or operations tasks.

What is the best way to minimize execution risk when running a written plan?▼

The best way to minimize execution risk is running the plan in a separate session with critical review checkpoints, following bite-sized steps, running verifications, and consulting a bundled best-practices guide.

When should I use structured checkpoints for task tracking?▼

Structured checkpoints should be used for development or operations tasks that require staged work, verification, and clear handoffs, especially when subagents or automation can enhance quality.
