ring:executing-plans

A controlled process for carrying out a written coding plan in batches, with code review and optional human checkpoints. It supports either continuous execution or pausing after each batch for feedback.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to load and assess a plan, choose an execution mode, implement its tasks in batches, review the results, and pause for human input when needed.
Why use it?
It makes large implementation plans easier to supervise and gives the user a chance to review progress between groups of changes. The process also requires reviewing the plan before work begins.

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

ring:executing-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 2d 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.

Executing Plans

Overview

Load plan, review critically, choose execution mode, execute tasks with code review.

Core principle: User chooses between autonomous execution or batch execution with human review checkpoints.

Two execution modes:

  • One-go (autonomous): Execute all batches continuously with code review, report only at completion
  • Batch (with review): Execute one batch, code review, pause for human feedback, repeat

Announce at start: "I'm using the ring:executing-plans skill to implement this plan."

The Process

Step 1: Load and Review Plan

  1. Read plan file
  2. Review critically - identify any questions or concerns about the plan
  3. If concerns: Raise them with your human partner before starting
  4. If no concerns: Create TodoWrite and proceed to Step 2

Step 2: Choose Execution Mode (MANDATORY)

⚠️ THIS STEP IS NON-NEGOTIABLE. You MUST use AskUserQuestion before executing ANY tasks.

Ask: "How would you like to execute this plan?" Options: (1) One-go (autonomous) - all batches with code review, no human review until completion (2) Batch (with review) - pause for human review after each batch

Based on response: One-go → Steps 3-4 loop until done | Batch → Steps 3-5 loop

Why AskUserQuestion is Mandatory (Not "Contextual Guidance")

This is a structural checkpoint, not optional UX polish.

User saying "don't wait", "don't ask questions", or "just execute" does NOT skip this step because:

  1. Execution mode affects architecture - One-go vs batch determines review checkpoints, error recovery paths, and rollback points
  2. Implicit intent ≠ explicit choice - "Don't wait" might mean "use one-go" OR "ask quickly and proceed"
  3. AskUserQuestion takes 3 seconds - It's not an interruption, it's a confirmation
  4. Emergency pressure is exactly when mistakes happen - Structural gates exist FOR high-pressure moments

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.

ring:executing-plans is a skill published in the GitHub repository LerianStudio/ring (210 stars, last pushed 13d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 38 tokens to every session and 2,388 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
