Documentation

README

Excerpt

Executing Plans

Overview

Load plan, review critically, execute all tasks, report when complete.

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

Note: Tell your human partner that Superpowers works much better with access to subagents. The quality of its work will be significantly higher if run on a platform with subagent support (such as Claude Code or Codex). If subagents are available, use superpowers:subagent-driven-development instead of this skill.

The Process

Step 1: Load and Review Plan

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

Step 2: Execute Tasks

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
