SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Turning a written implementation plan into working code often goes wrong when steps are skipped, verifications are ignored, or blockers are guessed around. This Skill enforces a disciplined process for executing a plan in a separate session with review checkpoints. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Critical Plan Review: Loads the plan, reviews it critically, and raises concerns with you before writing any code. - Structured Task Execution: Creates todos for plan items, marks each in progress, follows steps exactly, and runs the specified verifications. - Safe Stop Conditions: Stops and asks for help on blockers, unclear instructions, or repeated verification failures instead of guessing. - Use Case: You have a multi-task implementation plan from a prior planning session. Hand it to this Skill in a fresh session and it executes every task in an isolated git worktree, then hands off to a finishing-a-development-branch flow to verify tests and complete the work. ## Quick Start Use the executing-plans skill to implement the plan in my plan file, reviewing it critically first and stopping if you hit any blockers.

FAQPage Schema
How do I execute an implementation plan with an AI coding assistant?▼

Provide the written plan file and invoke the executing-plans skill. It reviews the plan critically, creates todos for each task, follows the steps exactly, runs the specified verifications, and reports when all tasks are complete.

What should an implementation plan contain before executing it?▼

The plan should contain bite-sized tasks with explicit steps and verification commands. The skill reviews the plan critically first and raises any concerns or gaps with you before starting execution.

Does executing-plans work with subagents like Claude Code or Codex CLI?▼

Yes, but if subagents are available the skill recommends using superpowers:subagent-driven-development instead. Platforms like Claude Code, Codex CLI, Copilot CLI, and Gemini CLI all qualify as subagent-capable.

What happens when a task verification fails during plan execution?▼

The skill stops executing immediately rather than guessing. It treats blockers, unclear instructions, and repeated verification failures as signals to ask you for clarification before continuing.

Can plan execution start directly on the main branch?▼

No. The skill requires an isolated workspace such as a git worktree and never starts implementation on main or master without your explicit consent.
