roadmap-to-improve-plans

roadmap-to-improve-plans is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from joshuadavidthomas/agent-skills. It costs 88 tokens per session (1,543 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A planning tool that turns roadmap priorities and accepted feature plans into grouped, numbered work plans for later developers.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to break larger improvements into reviewable batches with verification steps and clear execution guidance.
Why use it?
It preserves the reasoning, risks, checks, and stopping points that can otherwise be lost between planning and implementation.

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

roadmap-to-improve-plans scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 12d 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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Roadmap to Improve Plans

Turn selected strategic-roadmap opportunities or accepted feature slices into grouped batches of numbered improvement plans. This is the wide planning stage: preserve the audit judgment, feature decisions, and architecture diagnosis behind each selected item, then turn it into enough detail for future executors to work safely.

Treat plan writing as meta-work: the output should improve future execution loops by carrying forward impact, risk, confidence, design claims, regression checks, approval boundaries, and STOP conditions.

This owns this pipeline's NNN plan-bank contract directly.

Source Frame

Before writing plans, load what applies:

  • The selected .agents/ROADMAP.md or equivalent roadmap/opportunity artifact.
  • Accepted feature-planning artifacts when splitting a feature outline or final plan into PR-sized improvement plans.
  • improve for the original audit posture: category, evidence, impact, effort, risk, confidence, fix sketch, and “not worth doing” verdicts.
  • The coding-standards skill as the canonical source for standards concerns. Load only the reference files matching the selected work; do not copy the standards into this skill or the plan.
  • improve-codebase-architecture for architecture/deepening candidates: current friction, shallow-module diagnosis, deletion test, locality/leverage, and recommendation strength.
  • DLS-style exemplar plans when present in the target repo, especially effort indexes, numbered plans, memos, rejected/deferred notes, and reconciliation logs.
  • Project docs and commands: AGENTS.md, README.md, CONTEXT.md, architecture docs, ADRs, package/test config, CI config, and current VCS state.

Workflow

  1. Select plan scope
    • Start from selected roadmap items, accepted feature artifacts, or ask the user which items to plan.
    • Treat one effort directory as one improvement batch: one theme, one outcome, one README index.
    • Split unrelated projects, features, or outcomes into separate batches.
    • Preserve dependency order from the roadmap or feature outline; do not flatten everything into parallel tasks.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.
