Implementation Plan Executor FAQs

Question 1

When should I use the executing-plans skill?

Accepted Answer

Use this skill whenever you have a detailed, written implementation plan and want Claude to follow it systematically in a separate session with checkpoints.

Question 2

How many tasks does this skill execute at once?

Accepted Answer

By default, the skill executes tasks in batches of three. This ensures frequent checkpoints and allows the human partner to provide feedback before too much work is completed.

Question 3

What happens if Claude hits a blocker during execution?

Accepted Answer

The skill is programmed to stop immediately if it encounters missing dependencies, test failures, or unclear instructions. It will ask for clarification rather than guessing.

Question 4

Does this skill finalize the development branch?

Accepted Answer

No, this skill focuses on execution. Once all tasks are complete, it will prompt you to use the 'finishing-a-development-branch' sub-skill to verify and merge the work.

Question 5

Can I update the plan while Claude is executing it?

Accepted Answer

Yes. If you update the plan based on feedback, Claude will return to the review step to ensure the new approach is fully understood before continuing.
