Executing Plans

Overview

Load plan, review critically, execute all tasks, report when complete.

Announce at start: "I'm using the executing-plans skill to implement this plan."

Note: Tell your human partner that this workflow works much better with access to subagents (Claude Code, Codex CLI, Codex App, Copilot CLI, and Gemini CLI all qualify). If your agent environment can run plans with subagents, prefer that route over this skill — this skill executes solo.

The Process

Step 1: Load and Review Plan

1. Ensure an isolated workspace: if your environment provides a git worktree skill or workflow, use it to create one or verify the existing one; otherwise create or verify an isolated worktree/branch yourself — never assume such a helper is installed
2. Read the plan file; if the session hasn't identified one, ask your human partner for its path — don't assume a location
3. Review critically - identify any questions or concerns about the plan
4. If concerns: Raise them with your human partner before starting
5. If no concerns: Create todos for the plan items and proceed
