Execute-plan is a Forge/Claude skill that executes a structured task plan file to completion, tracking each task through pending, in-progress, done, and failed states.

About

Execute-plan runs structured task plans with automatic status tracking and progress updates. Given a plan file (plans/{date}-{task}-{version}.md), it reads pending tasks, marks each IN_PROGRESS, executes it, marks it DONE, and re-verifies completion at the end. A developer uses it to carry out a previously created plan step by step.

  • Executes a structured plan file to completion with per-task status tracking
  • Updates each task through PENDING, IN_PROGRESS, DONE, and FAILED states
  • Re-reads the plan at the end to verify all tasks are completed

What it does

Execute a structured plan file to completion, updating each task's status from pending to done and verifying at the end.

Who is it for?

Developers running a previously written plan file step by step with automatic status tracking.

Skip if: Ad-hoc work with no plan file; it expects a plans/{date}-{task}-{version}.md input.

When should I use this skill?

The user provides a plan file path like plans/{current-date}-{task-name}-{version}.md or explicitly asks to execute a plan file.

What you get

Every task in the plan executed and marked DONE, with a final re-read verifying completion.

  • Plan file with all tasks marked DONE
  • Progress updates per task

By the numbers

  • 4 task-status markers: PENDING, IN_PROGRESS, DONE, FAILED
  • 6-step execution loop from commitment to final verification

Execute Plan

Execute structured task plans with automatic status tracking and progress updates.

Commitment to Completion

When a plan is provided, all tasks in the plan must be completed. Before starting execution, recite:

"I will execute this plan to completion. All the 20 tasks will be addressed and marked as DONE."

Execution Steps

STEP 1: Recite the commitment to complete all tasks in the plan.

STEP 2: Read the entire plan file to identify pending tasks based on task_status.

STEP 3: Announce the next pending task and update its status to IN_PROGRESS in the plan file.

STEP 4: Execute all actions required to complete the task and mark the task status to DONE in the plan file.

STEP 5: Repeat from Step 3 until all tasks are marked as DONE.

STEP 6: Re-read the plan file to verify all tasks are completed before announcing completion.

Task Status Format

Use these status indicators in the plan file:

[ ]: PENDING
[~]: IN_PROGRESS
[x]: DONE
[!]: FAILED

Example Usage

1. User provides: "Execute plan at plans/2025-11-23-refactor-auth-v1.md" 2. Recite commitment: "I will execute this plan to completion..." 3. Read the plan file 4. Find first [ ] (PENDING) task 5. Update to [~] (IN_PROGRESS) 6. Execute the task 7. Update to [x] (DONE) 8. Move to next PENDING task 9. Repeat until all tasks appear DONE 10. Re-read plan file to verify completion 11. Announce completion
