Phase Planning Skill

This skill provides methodology for creating implementation plans that are optimized for sub-agent execution, with properly sized phases that respect context window constraints.

Overview

A good phase plan:

1. Breaks work into independently executable chunks
2. Sizes phases to fit within sub-agent context budgets
3. Minimizes dependencies between phases where possible
4. Provides clear acceptance criteria for verification
5. Uses whole number phases only (no 1.1, 1.2 sub-phases)
