Comprehensive implementation plans for multi-step tasks, breaking down specs into bite-sized, testable steps. Decomposes requirements into focused tasks (2–5 minutes each) following TDD: write failing test, verify failure, implement, verify pass, commit Maps file structure upfront with clear boundaries and responsibilities, ensuring each file has one purpose and files that change together stay together Includes exact file paths, complete code samples, and specific commands with expected outputs for each step Requires plan review via subagent before execution; supports two execution modes (subagent-driven per task or inline batch execution)

Quand l utiliser

• Use this skill when the task matches the package name, repository context, or skills.sh topic: Agent workflows.
• Prefer it when a repeatable workflow is better than a one-off prompt: setup, review, design, deployment, automation, research, media generation, or operational checks.
• For production work, read the linked repository and install command before allowing the agent to run scripts or modify files.

Comment un agent doit l utiliser

1. Confirm the user intent and whether this skill is the right fit.
2. Install or inspect the skill with the official command from skills.sh.
3. Read the local SKILL.md and only load extra files referenced by that skill.
4. Follow the skill's workflow, then verify the result with tests, screenshots, audits, or source-backed checks as appropriate.
5. Record any constraints, missing credentials, tool permissions, or security warnings before handoff.

FAQ

Is writing-plans an agent, a prompt, or a skill?
It is a skill: a reusable package of task-specific instructions and supporting files that an agent can load when the user's request matches the workflow.

Should I install it automatically?
Only after checking the repository, install command, audit status, and whether the user wants this capability in the current agent environment.

What makes it useful for AIDreamHub users?
It helps users discover practical agent capabilities from the open skills ecosystem and compare them by task, source, install count, and operational risk.
