When should I use the write-plan skill?

Use this skill immediately after receiving a specification or requirements for a multi-step task, but before you start writing any production code.

Where are the generated plans stored?

Plans are saved to the project's ./plans/ directory using a standardized YYYY-MM-DD-feature-name.md naming convention for easy tracking.

Does it provide specific Git instructions?

Yes, every bite-sized task includes specific git add and git commit commands following conventional commit formatting to encourage early and frequent commits.

How does this skill improve code quality?

It enforces TDD (Test-Driven Development), ensuring every feature is tested, and promotes DRY and YAGNI principles to prevent over-engineering and code bloat.

生产力与工作流

Generates detailed, step-by-step implementation plans for complex features following TDD and clean code principles.

The write-plan skill helps developers map out complex coding tasks before touching a single line of production code. It enforces a structured approach by requiring specific file paths, architectural overviews, and bite-sized tasks that follow Test-Driven Development (TDD), DRY, and YAGNI principles. By documenting every step—including failing tests, minimal implementations, and Git commit instructions—this skill ensures that even developers unfamiliar with a codebase can execute tasks with high quality and consistency while maintaining a clear audit trail of the development process.
