What is the validation step?

Every plan must pass a mandatory validation script (.forge/skills/create-plan/validate-plan.sh) to ensure it meets formatting requirements, such as checkbox tasks and proper section headers.

Where are the generated plans stored?

Plans are automatically saved in the /plans/ directory using a standardized timestamped naming convention (e.g., YYYY-MM-DD-task-name-v1.md) for easy versioning.

When is the best time to use the create-plan skill?

Use it at the start of a complex feature, when you need a risk assessment for architectural changes, or when you require a clear roadmap before starting the coding phase.

Does this skill modify my source code?

No, this is a planning-only skill designed to generate strategic documentation and roadmaps without making any code changes or modifications to your source files.

Can I include code snippets in the plan?

No, the skill strictly avoids code examples and snippets to focus on the 'what' and 'why' of the implementation using natural language rather than tactical code.

Productivity & Workflow

Generates comprehensive, validated implementation plans and strategic roadmaps for complex software development tasks.

The Implementation Planner skill provides a structured framework for architecting solutions and mapping out development cycles before writing a single line of code. It automates the creation of standardized Markdown plans that include clear objectives, checkbox-formatted task lists, risk assessments, and alternative approach analysis. By enforcing a mandatory validation step and focusing strictly on natural language descriptions rather than code snippets, it ensures developers maintain a high-level strategic focus, making it an essential tool for project leads and complex feature engineering.
