executing-plans SKILL.md skillA

executing-plans from invergent-ai/surogates is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add invergent-ai/surogates/executing-plans@v1.0.0

Pins v1.0.0 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Carry out an existing written implementation plan step by step with checkpoints.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Executing Plans

## Overview

Load plan, review critically, execute all tasks, report when complete.

**Announce at start:** "I'm using the executing-plans skill to implement this plan."

**Note:** This skill drives task-by-task execution *inline* in the current session. If your platform supports sub-agent dispatch (`delegate_task`, `spawn_worker`), the `subagent-driven-development` skill produces higher-quality results with two-stage review and isolated contexts. Use this skill when sub-agent dispatch is not available or your human partner explicitly chose inline execution.

## The Process

### Step 1: Load and Review Plan

1. Read the plan file with `read_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 no concerns: create a `todo` per task and proceed.

### Step 2: Execute Tasks

For each task:

1. Mark the `todo` as in_progress.
2. Follow each step exactly (the plan has bite-sized steps).
3. Run verifications as specified — don't skip them.
4. Mark the `todo` as completed only when the step's verification passes.

### Step 3: Complete Development

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add invergent-ai/surogates/executing-plans@sha256:801ed11c997a8580

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
