Can I use this for existing codebases or just new projects?

It is designed for both. The planner scans your local repository (src, lib, app) and git history to understand existing patterns and file structures before suggesting changes.

How does the skill handle task dependencies?

It strictly orders tasks so that no task is scheduled before its requirements are met, grouping them into logical batches of three for focused execution.

What are the three persistence files created by the planner?

The skill generates a Task Plan for the roadmap, a Findings file for research notes and patterns, and a Progress file to track completion status throughout the project.

What happens if I need to stop mid-implementation?

Because the plan and progress are persisted as markdown files within your repository, you can resume precisely where you left off in any new session using the resume command.

Does it support Test-Driven Development (TDD)?

Absolutely. Every generated task includes specific TDD criteria following a standardized 'test_should_behavior_when_condition' format to ensure code quality.

Productividad y Flujo de Trabajo

Generates structured implementation plans with task decomposition, dependency tracking, and persistent progress logging for complex coding features.

Implementation Planner is a specialized workflow skill designed to bridge the gap between high-level design and actual code execution. It transforms feature descriptions or design documents into granular, actionable task lists with strict dependency ordering and batch grouping. By creating a standardized three-file persistence system (Task Plan, Findings, and Progress), it ensures that Claude maintains context across multiple sessions, making it the perfect tool for large-scale refactors or multi-day feature development. The skill also enforces Test-Driven Development (TDD) patterns and identifies research gaps in the codebase before work begins.
