executing-plans

executing-plans is a skill for Claude Code from CarbeneAI/Forge. It costs 75 tokens per session (3,438 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A structured way to carry out an existing written implementation plan in batches, with review and verification checkpoints. It treats the plan as the main source of instructions and pauses for feedback after each batch.

In plain words
What is it for?
Loading a plan from project documentation, implementing its tasks in groups, reporting what changed and how it was tested, and continuing after review.
Why use it?
It helps prevent large planned changes from being applied all at once without review and makes missing files, unclear instructions, or failed checks visible early.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: installed under .claude/. Also seen: mentions subagents.

Needs its repository: it reads a path above its own folder, which exists only inside the repository. The line is $ git worktree add ../user-auth-feature feature/user-auth.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

executing-plans scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Executing Plans

Systematically execute written implementation plans with batch processing, verification checkpoints, and progress reporting.

🎯 Load Full CORE Context

read ${PAI_DIR}/skills/CORE/SKILL.md

When to Activate This Skill

  • "execute the plan at docs/plans/..." → Systematic implementation
  • "implement from the plan" → Follow written specification
  • "start working on the plan" → Batch execution with checkpoints
  • User has written plan ready to execute

Core Philosophy

Plans Are Single Source of Truth

The plan document specifies:

  • What to build
  • How to build it
  • What order to build it
  • How to verify each step

Follow the plan exactly. Don't improvise or "improve" unless explicitly discussed with user.

Batch Execution with Checkpoints

Execute 3 tasks (default), then STOP and report:

  • What was implemented
  • Verification output
  • Current status

Wait for user feedback before continuing. This enables:

  • Course correction if something's wrong
  • User awareness of progress
  • Clear stopping points
  • Better debugging

STOP When Blocked

If you encounter ANY uncertainty:

  • Missing file referenced in plan
  • Unclear instruction
  • Dependency issue
  • Environment problem

STOP and ASK. Never guess or make assumptions.

The Five-Step Process

Step 1: Load and Review Plan

Before starting any work:

  1. Read the entire plan from docs/plans/
  2. Review critically - does it make sense?
  3. Check prerequisites - are they met?
  4. Understand execution order - why this sequence?
  5. Raise concerns before starting

Critical Questions:

  • Is the plan clear and executable?
  • Are prerequisites met?
  • Do file paths exist or need creation?
  • Are dependencies installed?
  • Is codebase state ready for this plan?

If you find issues with the plan, STOP and report them before starting.

Example Review:

## Plan Review

**Plan:** docs/plans/2026-02-03-user-auth.md

**Checked:**
- [x] Prerequisites met (Express running, Vitest configured, bcrypt installed)
- [x] File paths make sense (src/models/, tests/, src/services/)
- [x] Task sequence logical (test-first, then implement)
- [x] Verification steps clear

**Concerns:**
- None - plan looks executable

**Ready to start:** YES

Proceeding with first batch (Tasks 1-3).

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

executing-plans is a skill published in the GitHub repository CarbeneAI/Forge (9 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 75 tokens to every session and 3,438 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
