Key capabilities

  • Decompose complex tasks into actionable steps
  • Execute multi-stage migration or implementation plans
  • Switch between planning and execution modes

How it works

The skill uses separate modes for planning and execution, invoking specific scripts to manage the workflow of complex tasks.

Inputs & outputs

You give it
Task description or intent
You get back
Decomposed plan or executed implementation steps

When to use planner

  • Decomposing a large feature into actionable tickets
  • Architecting a new system component
  • Running a multi-stage migration script

About this skill

Activation

When this skill activates, IMMEDIATELY invoke the corresponding script. The script IS the workflow.

ModeIntentCommand
planning"plan", "design", "architect"<invoke working-dir=".claude/skills/scripts" cmd="python3 -m skills.planner.orchestrator.planner --step 1" />
execution"execute", "implement", "run plan"<invoke working-dir=".claude/skills/scripts" cmd="python3 -m skills.planner.orchestrator.executor --step 1" />

When not to use it

  • Simple, single-step tasks that do not require decomposition

Limitations

  • Requires explicit invocation for planning or execution modes

How it compares

It provides a structured, interactive environment for decomposing and executing tasks rather than performing them in a single unstructured pass.

Autonomous agents are AI systems that can independently decompose goals, plan actions, execute tools, and self-correct without constant human guidance. The challenge isn't making them capable - it's making them reliable. Every extra decision multiplies failure probability. This skill covers agent loops (ReAct, Plan-Execute), goal decomposition, reflection patterns, and production reliability. Key insight: compounding error rates kill autonomous agents. A 95% success rate per step drops to 60% b
