SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill prevents broken or incomplete implementations by validating that executed work matches the intended plan before you merge or commit.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Plan-to-code verification: Confirms planned phases and success criteria were actually implemented, using evidence from commits, diffs, and the plan document.
  • Automated verification execution: Runs the plan’s specified automated verification commands and records pass/fail results with the exact commands used.
  • Deviation and risk reporting: Highlights mismatches, partial completion, missing coverage, and potential edge-case or regression risks, then produces a structured validation report.

Quick Start

Ask the AI to run the validation quality gate by executing: /validate-plan path/to/plan.md.

Frequently Asked Questions about validate-plan

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I verify my code changes match the implementation plan before a PR?

To validate an implementation plan, execute the command /validate-plan path/to/plan.md. The Skill gathers implementation evidence via git diff inspection and runs the automated verification commands listed in the plan document to confirm completeness.

What is a quality gate for AI-assisted development workflows?

A quality gate for AI-assisted development validates that executed work matches the intended plan by checking code changes for completeness, correctness, and automated test or lint pass status before commit or PR.

How do I run automated verification commands listed in my plan file?

Automated verification execution runs the plan's specified verification commands and records pass or fail results with the exact commands used, confirming your implementation meets the defined success criteria.

How does plan validation report missing coverage or partial implementation?

Deviation and risk reporting highlights mismatches, partial completion, and missing coverage by comparing the plan document against actual code changes, producing a structured validation report with actionable summaries.

Do I need a specific plan file format to validate implementation completeness?

You need a plan file containing defined phases, success criteria, and automated verification commands. The Skill locates or accepts this plan file to compare against your actual code changes and test outcomes.
