writing-plans

Productivity

Gives your agent the ability to create detailed, bite-sized implementation plans before starting any complex coding task.

When to use

When starting a multi-step feature implementation or a large refactor
When you want to ensure the agent understands the full architectural approach before it writes code
When you need a TDD-focused roadmap with specific file changes and test cases

How to use

1
Provide the requirements or specification for the new feature or bug fix
2
Review the implementation plan, including the architecture, tech stack, and file map
3
Confirm each bite-sized task (2-5 minutes each) is accurate and follows TDD
4
Execute the plan task-by-task, checking off steps as you verify them with tests

Example conversation

case

You

I need to add a subscription feature. Create an implementation plan first.

Agent

I'm using the writing-plans skill. I've drafted a plan in `docs/superpowers/plans/2024-subscription.md`. It covers the DB schema changes, the API routes, and the frontend components, each with failing tests and verification steps.
