create-implementation-plan

What problem does it solve? Writing implementation plans that both humans and AI agents can execute consistently is difficult, often resulting in vague tasks, missing requirements, and untracked progress. This Skill produces deterministic, machine-readable plan files with a strict template so work can be executed and validated without ambiguity. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Standardized Plan Template: Enforces a mandatory Markdown structure with front matter, requirements, phased tasks, dependencies, risks, and testing sections. - AI-Executable Tasks: Requires atomic tasks with specific file paths, standardized identifier prefixes (REQ-, TASK-, GOAL-), and measurable completion criteria. - Status Tracking: Defines plan status values (Planned, In progress, Completed, Deprecated, On Hold) with badge rendering in the document. - Use Case: When upgrading a package or adding an authentication module, generate a plan file like feature-auth-module-1.md in the /plan/ directory that an AI agent can execute phase by phase. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to create an implementation plan for your feature, refactor, or upgrade, specifying the purpose and target component.
