Generates structured, phase-based implementation plans for tasks, bugs, and technical spikes within Claude Code.
Implementation Planner is a specialized Claude Code skill designed to bridge the gap between issue creation and execution by generating comprehensive PLAN.md files. It automatically synthesizes context from specifications, architecture decision records (ADRs), and existing codebases to create logical work phases with clear checkpoints and 'Done When' criteria. Supporting both standard task execution and multi-approach technical spikes, the skill includes advanced features like real-time library documentation validation and an optional peer-review 'second opinion' from the Gemini CLI to ensure high-quality, up-to-date roadmaps for any development effort.
