Execute Implementation Plans With Checkpoints
Long implementation plans can drift when tasks are executed without review. This skill guides Claude, Codex, and Claude Code through batched execution, verification, and feedback checkpoints.
Install with my Agent
Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.
Review the Skillstore skill "executing-plans" from https://skillstore.io/skills/cygnusfear-executing-plans.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/cygnusfear-executing-plans/manifest. Verify the artifact. You may proceed after verification, subject to the environment's own policy.Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.

Test it
Using "executing-plans". A developer provides a migration plan with ten verified tasks.
Expected outcome:
The assistant reviews the plan, completes the first three tasks, shows verification results, and waits for feedback.
Using "executing-plans". A test fails twice during a planned implementation batch.
Expected outcome:
The assistant stops the batch, describes the failing verification, and asks for clarification instead of guessing.
Using "executing-plans". All planned tasks are complete and verified.
Expected outcome:
The assistant moves to the finishing development branch process and presents final verification options.
Security Audit
SafeStatic analysis found no suspicious patterns in the single prompt-only skill file. Manual review found no prompt injection attempt, data exfiltration intent, or unsafe execution instructions.

Skillstore Score
Why this score Evidence Confidence: HighWhat You Can Build
Implement A Prepared Plan
Execute a reviewed implementation plan in small batches while keeping verification visible.
Coordinate AI Coding Sessions
Keep Claude, Codex, or Claude Code aligned with a plan across a separate work session.
Review Progress Between Batches
Pause after each batch so stakeholders can inspect changes before the next tasks begin.
Try These Prompts
Use the executing-plans skill. Read this implementation plan, review it for concerns, and start the first batch if it is clear.
Use the executing-plans skill with this plan. Execute the first three tasks, run each listed verification, and report the results for review.
Use the executing-plans skill to continue from the last completed batch. Apply this feedback first, then execute the next planned tasks.
Use the executing-plans skill. If any instruction is unclear or verification fails repeatedly, stop and explain the blocker before continuing.
Best Practices
- Provide a clear plan file with small tasks and explicit verification steps.
- Review each batch report before asking the assistant to continue.
- Keep feedback specific so the next batch can resume with minimal ambiguity.
Avoid
- Do not use this skill when no written implementation plan exists.
- Do not ask the assistant to skip verification between tasks.
- Do not continue after a blocker without clarifying the failed or unclear step.
