What problem does it solve? Engineers often start coding from a spec without a clear roadmap, leading to missed requirements, inconsistent structure, and untested code. This Skill turns a spec or requirements document into a complete, step-by-step implementation plan that any developer can execute without prior codebase context. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Bite-Sized Task Decomposition: Breaks work into 2-5 minute steps following a strict TDD cycle (failing test, minimal implementation, verification, commit). - Zero-Placeholder Enforcement: Requires exact file paths, complete code blocks, exact commands, and expected outputs in every step, banning vague instructions like "add error handling". - Self-Review Checklist: Validates the finished plan against the spec for coverage gaps, placeholder patterns, and type/name consistency across tasks. - Use Case: Given a spec for a new API endpoint, produce a plan saved to docs/superpowers/plans/ with checkbox tasks covering file structure, tests, implementation code, and commit commands. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to use the writing-plans skill to create an implementation plan from your feature specification document.
