This Skill eliminates the high risk and potential for costly mistakes associated with complex code changes by enforcing a structured, two-phase planning and execution workflow. It provides explicit approval gates and rollback capabilities, ensuring safe and auditable refactoring.
User: Use Plan-Execute: Refactor authentication to use JWT instead of sessions
Agent: ✓ Step 1 (analyze): Found 8 files using sessions Agent: → Step 3 (refactor-login): APPROVAL REQUIRED Agent: Will modify: src/routes/auth/login.js (critical auth logic) Agent: Proceed? (y/n/skip)

Plan-execute generates a detailed YAML plan before making changes, requiring approval at each step and creating git checkpoints for instant rollback. This two-phase workflow prevents bugs in multi-file refactors, migrations, and API changes by enforcing review gates and maintaining an audit trail.
Plan-execute maps all dependencies and risks upfront, checkpointing your git state before each modification. You approve high-risk steps individually, catching issues early and rolling back safely if needed—achieving 90% first-pass success on complex refactors.
Yes. Plan-execute handles authentication refactors, API changes, and any scenario with breaking points across files. It identifies affected code, sequences changes safely, and gates approval on critical steps like modifying auth logic or breaking endpoints.
Yes, git is required. Plan-execute creates checkpoints by committing to git at each phase, enabling rollback and maintaining an audit trail of all changes during execution.
By generating and reviewing explicit plans before execution, catching dependency issues and breaking points upfront, and checkpointing with git at each step, plan-execute prevents most mistakes before they occur—cutting debugging cycles significantly.
Plan-execute creates git checkpoints before each high-risk step, so you can instantly rollback to a known good state. The audit trail shows exactly which step failed and what was attempted, aiding diagnosis.
