write-plan	MUST use after brainstorming and before executing. Creates detailed implementation plans with checkpoints, verification criteria, and execution options.

Write Plan

Overview

Transform validated designs into detailed, actionable implementation plans with checkpoints.

Every plan includes:

• Bite-sized tasks (2-5 minutes each)
• Checkpoints with verification criteria
• Estimated time for each section
• Execution options at the end

Plan Structure

# [Project Name] - Implementation Plan

**Goal:** One sentence describing success
**Approach:** Brief summary of the chosen approach
**Estimated Total Time:** X minutes

## Checkpoint 1: [Milestone Name]
- [ ] Task 1: [Description] (~X min)
  - **Action:** [Specific action]
  - **Verify:** [How to confirm done]
- [ ] Task 2: [Description] (~X min)
  ...

## Checkpoint 2: [Milestone Name]
...

## Verification Criteria
- [ ] All checkpoints complete
- [ ] Quality standards met
- [ ] User approval obtained

Task Granularity

• Small: 2-5 minutes of work
• Specific: Clear what "done" means
• Verifiable: Can confirm completion
• Independent: Doesn't block on other tasks in same checkpoint

Execution Handoff

After saving the plan, offer execution choice:

"Plan complete and saved to memory/plans/<filename>.md. Two execution options:

1. Single-Agent (this session) - I execute tasks sequentially, review at each checkpoint

2. Dispatch Multiple Agents (parallel) - Spawn subagents for independent tasks

Which approach?"

If Single-Agent chosen:

• Stay in this session
• Execute tasks sequentially
• Report progress at each checkpoint

If Dispatch Multiple Agents chosen:

• Use dispatch-multiple-agents skill
• Spawn subagents for parallel work
• Integrate results

Integration with Other Skills

• After brainstorming → Use write-plan
• Before doing-tasks → Plan must exist
• With dispatch-multiple-agents → For parallel execution
