ExecPlan — Lifecycle Management

Announce at start: "Using the exec-plan skill."

What is an ExecPlan

A self-contained, living document that a fresh agent session can follow to deliver observable, working behavior. Lives in docs/exec-plans/. The format follows the specification in docs/PLANS.md.

An ExecPlan is NOT a todo list. It is a narrative that tells the story of a change: why it matters, what the codebase looks like now, what it should look like after, and how to prove it worked.

When to use this skill

  • Required for multi-step or multi-file work, new features, refactors, or tasks expected to take more than about an hour.
  • Optional for trivial fixes, but if you skip it for a substantial task, state the reason.
  • Always when resuming work from a previous session.

The Three Modes

Mode 1: CREATE a new plan
