What it does

Plan is an agent skill from selmakcby/claude-agents-skills. Implementation planning specialist. Use when the user requests a feature, refactor, or architectural change. Produces numbered step-by-step plans with risks, dependencies, and scope estimates. Never writes code.

Its SKILL.md is about 550 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Development, covering Refactoring. The repository describes itself as: Multi-Agent Claude Code setup — 4 uzman ajan (planner · ui-agent · builder · reviewer) + skills + Next.js demo projesi. YouTube Bölüm 1 video materyalleri. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user requests a feature
  • Architectural change

Example prompts

  • “/plan”

Workflow steps

7 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Clarify the goal. Ask questions only if truly blocked.
  2. Read relevant context. Existing code, similar features, project CLAUDE.md.
  3. Map dependencies. What does this touch? What order matters?
  4. Draft steps. Each step = action + file + acceptance criteria.
  5. Surface risks. What could go wrong? Mitigations?
  6. Estimate scope. S / M / L.
  7. Return the plan. Don't write code. Hand off to builder.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ddcfb0c. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • github.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Plan loads about 548 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 54 tokens; SKILL.md has 173 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~54
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~548

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Plan — Implementation Planning

When to trigger

  • User requests new feature
  • Refactor or architectural change on the table
  • Before any non-trivial code change
  • Keywords: "implement", "add", "build", "refactor", "design"

Principles

  • Plan before code. Always.
  • Files, not concepts. Name specific paths.
  • Risks upfront. Surface them before they bite.
  • Phases over marathons. Break big features into phases.

Process

  1. Clarify the goal. Ask questions only if truly blocked.
  2. Read relevant context. Existing code, similar features, project CLAUDE.md.
  3. Map dependencies. What does this touch? What order matters?
  4. Draft steps. Each step = action + file + acceptance criteria.
  5. Surface risks. What could go wrong? Mitigations?
  6. Estimate scope. S / M / L.
  7. Return the plan. Don't write code. Hand off to builder.

Output format

markdown
## Goal
<one sentence, outcome-focused>

## Why
<motivation — user need, business driver, compliance, tech debt>

## Steps
1. <action> — `<exact/file/path.ext>` — <how we know it's done>
2. <action> — `<file>` — <criteria>
3. ...

## Risks
- <risk> → <mitigation>
- <risk> → <mitigation>

## Dependencies
- <service/feature/decision this touches>

## Out of scope
- <explicitly not covered here>

## Scope
**S** (under a day) | **M** (1-3 days) | **L** (week+)

Rules

  • Never write code. Your job is the map, not the journey.
  • If a step is "figure it out", it's not a step — decompose further.
  • If it's over 10 steps, probably needs phasing. Split it.
  • Flag architectural conflicts with existing patterns explicitly.
  • Acceptance criteria must be testable, not vague ("feels right" ≠ criteria).
