Workflow
- Create a draft plan with a clear title, goal, and step list.
- Refine the plan until the steps are concrete and reviewable.
- Approve the plan before switching into execution-heavy skills.
- Archive the plan once it has been superseded or completed.
Tips
- Keep steps outcome-oriented rather than tool-oriented.
- Use
plan showafter any update so the latest checklist is visible in one place. - When the user explicitly wants planning only, stay inside this skill and avoid starting implementation work.
