Executing Plans

Overview

The Process

Step 1: Load and Review Plan

1. Read plan file
2. Review critically - identify any questions or concerns about the plan
3. If concerns: Raise them with your human partner before starting
4. If clear: Proceed to execution

Step 2: Execute All Tasks

1. Follow each step exactly (plan has bite-sized steps)
2. Run verifications as specified
3. If blocked: Stop and ask for help (don't guess)
4. Continue to next task

Step 3: Complete

• Run final verifications as specified in the plan
• Summarize completed work and verification output

When to Stop and Ask for Help

• Hit a blocker (missing dependency, test fails, instruction unclear)
• Plan has gaps preventing progress
• You don't understand an instruction
• Verification fails repeatedly

When to Revisit Earlier Steps

• Partner updates the plan based on your feedback
• Fundamental approach needs rethinking

Remember

• Review plan critically first
• Follow plan steps exactly
• Don't skip verifications
• Reference skills when plan says to
• Stop when blocked, don't guess
