Technical Planning & Architecture

About

The Planning skill empowers Claude to act as a technical architect, conducting deep codebase analysis and research to create structured implementation blueprints before writing code. It breaks down complex requirements into actionable tasks, evaluates technical trade-offs, and ensures all solutions are scalable, secure, and maintainable. By enforcing a rigorous workflow from research to documentation, it minimizes technical debt and provides developers with a clear, self-contained roadmap for successful project execution.
