SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you reliably execute an existing written implementation plan, ensuring each task is performed in order and verified at the specified checkpoints.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Plan-first execution: Load a plan, review it critically, and raise concerns before starting.
  • Deterministic step execution: Execute tasks by following the plan’s bite-sized steps exactly, updating progress as you go.
  • Checkpoint verification: Run verifications explicitly as specified, and stop immediately when verification fails repeatedly or a blocker occurs.
  • Safe workflow orchestration: Enforces isolation expectations via required workflow skills and guides the transition to completion.

Quick Start

Ask the AI to execute the provided plan in a separate session, reviewing it first and running every verification checkpoint before marking tasks complete.

FAQPage Schema
How do I execute an implementation plan step by step with checkpoint verification?

To execute a plan step by step with checkpoint verification, load the written plan, critically review its tasks, and run each step in order while updating progress states to in_progress or completed.

What is plan-first workflow orchestration for separate planning and execution sessions?

Plan-first workflow orchestration separates planning from execution sessions, requiring a written plan to be critically reviewed before task execution begins, ensuring strict adherence to step granularity and safe implementation.

How do I track task progress and stop on blockers during plan execution?

Track task progress during plan execution by updating in_progress and completed states per task, and enforce explicit stop-on-blocker behavior when checkpoint verification fails repeatedly or a blocker occurs.

Does plan execution require a written plan and sub-skills for finishing verification?

Yes, plan execution requires an existing written implementation plan with bite-sized steps, and mandates a required sub-skill to perform follow-up finishing verification before marking the overall workflow complete.

What happens when checkpoint compliance fails during safe implementation?

When checkpoint compliance fails during safe implementation, the workflow enforces an immediate stop to prevent further execution, halting progress until the blocker is resolved or the failure is addressed.
