What problem does it solve?
Creating comprehensive technical plans can be time-consuming and often leads to overlooked details. This skill automates the generation of structured implementation plans, ensuring all aspects of a feature—from requirements and technical approach to testing and deployment—are considered and documented.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Structured Plan Generation: Creates detailed plans following a predefined format, including overview, requirements, technical approach, implementation steps, testing strategy, deployment checklist, risks, and open questions.
- Contextual Awareness: Gathers project context using
just info to tailor the plan to your specific repository and existing workflows.
- Best Practices Integration: Incorporates language-specific best practices (e.g., Go error handling, Python type hints, K8s resource limits) into the plan.
- Use Case: When starting a new feature, use
/plan add rate limiting to API. The skill will ask clarifying questions, analyze your project, and generate a complete implementation plan, saving you hours of upfront design work and ensuring a consistent approach.
