How does the skill handle different project management tools?

It features dual-mode detection: Linear Mode uses the Linear MCP to sync issues, while File Mode parses Markdown files in your local docs directory, allowing for flexible project management.

Does it manage git branches automatically?

Yes, the orchestrator automatically detects or creates the appropriate feature branch based on the story ID and slug to ensure all work remains isolated from the main branch.

Can I see the execution plan before the skill makes changes?

Yes, the skill supports a dedicated Plan Mode that generates a detailed table of tasks, executors, and expected outcomes for user approval before proceeding to execution.

What is the 'Independent Context Pattern' used by this skill?

This pattern ensures that code reviews are performed by a sub-agent with isolated context, preventing the 'executor bias' that occurs when the same agent writes and reviews the code.

Productivity & Workflow

Orchestrates end-to-end story implementation by managing task lifecycles, delegating execution, and enforcing strict quality gates.

About

The ln-400-story-executor is a high-level coordination skill designed to drive the full delivery workflow of a software story. It intelligently manages the transition of tasks from Todo to Done, supporting both Linear API integration and local Markdown-based task tracking. By enforcing a strict 'Execute-then-Review' pattern and managing isolated feature branches, it ensures that every code change is validated by independent sub-agents. It acts as the central brain for complex implementations, delegating specific coding, testing, and review actions to specialized sub-skills while maintaining a holistic view of the story's quality through multi-pass quality gates.
