How does the Executing Plans skill prevent errors?

The skill enforces mandatory verification gates, requiring the AI to run commands and read the full output to confirm success before marking any task as complete.

How is progress reported during the execution phase?

After each batch, the skill generates a structured markdown report including a status table, verification results, and a summary of the next planned tasks.

What is the default batch size for task execution?

The skill defaults to executing 3 tasks per batch, allowing for regular review intervals and ensuring the implementation stays on track.

What happens if a task fails or hits a blocker?

The skill is instructed to stop immediately when a test fails unexpectedly or a dependency is missing, preventing the AI from guessing and instead asking the user for clarification.

Productivity & Workflow

Orchestrates the systematic implementation of development plans through batch processing and mandatory verification checkpoints.

The executing-plans skill transforms complex implementation tasks into a manageable, structured process by executing changes in controlled batches. It enforces a strict 'review-execute-verify' cycle, ensuring that every step of a plan is validated against real-world test outputs before proceeding. This skill is essential for maintaining code quality during large-scale refactors or feature implementations, as it prevents hallucinated progress by requiring hard evidence of success and providing structured progress reports after every batch of tasks.
