writing-plans

What problem does it solve?

Poorly detailed implementation plans lead to confusion, rework, and errors, especially when handed off to developers unfamiliar with the codebase. This skill guides the creation of comprehensive, bite-sized implementation plans with exact file paths, complete code examples, and explicit verification steps, ensuring any engineer can execute them flawlessly, regardless of their codebase context.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Bite-Sized Task Granularity: Breaks down implementation into small, actionable steps (2-5 minutes each).
• Zero-Context Assumption: Plans are detailed enough for engineers with no prior codebase knowledge.
• Exact Code & Commands: Provides complete code snippets and precise command-line instructions with expected outputs.
• Use Case: After a design is approved, use this skill to generate a detailed implementation plan for a new feature, ensuring every task is clearly defined with all necessary code and verification steps.

Quick Start

Use the writing-plans skill to create an implementation plan for the 'user-profile-update' feature.
