What it does

Executing Plans is an agent skill from geeksblabla/stateofdev.ma. Use when partner provides a complete implementation plan to execute in controlled batches with review checkpoints - loads plan, reviews critically, executes tasks in batches, reports for review between batches

It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Planning. The repository describes itself as: stateofdev.ma source code.

When your agent uses it

  • Partner provides a complete implementation plan to execute in controlled batches with review checkpoints - loads plan
  • Reviews critically
  • Executes tasks in batches
  • Reports for review between batches

Example prompts

  • “/executing-plans”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Load and Review Plan
  2. Execute Batch
  3. Report
  4. Continue
  5. Complete Development

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b21fd7f. 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.

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    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

Executing Plans loads about 581 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 56 tokens; SKILL.md has 301 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~56
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~581

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.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 301 words (~581 tokens).

“Load plan, review critically, execute tasks in batches, report for review between batches.”
