Individual skill
exec-plan
Manage the lifecycle of ExecPlans — self-contained, living specifications for multi-step work. Creates plans in the correct format, enforces living section updates, and handles the active → completed transition. Use for any work expected to take more than one session or touching more than 3 files. Triggers: "create a plan", "write a plan", "start plan", "continue plan", "resume plan", "finish plan", "complete plan", multi-step features, refactors, or tasks spanning sessions.

# ExecPlan — Lifecycle Management
**Announce at start:** "Using the exec-plan skill."
## What is an ExecPlan
A self-contained, living document that a fresh agent session can follow to deliver observable, working behavior. Lives in `docs/exec-plans/`. The format follows the specification in `docs/PLANS.md`.
An ExecPlan is NOT a todo list. It is a narrative that tells the story of a change: why it matters, what the codebase looks like now, what it should look like after, and how to prove it worked.
## When to use this skill
- **Required** for multi-step or multi-file work, new features, refactors, or tasks expected to take more than about an hour.
- **Optional** for trivial fixes, but if you skip it for a substantial task, state the reason.
