Use when you have a written implementation plan to execute in a separate session with review 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.

# Executing Plans
## Overview
Load plan, review critically, execute tasks in batches, report for review between batches.
**Core principle:** Batch execution with checkpoints for architect review.
**Announce at start:** "I'm using the executing-plans skill to implement this plan."
## 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 no concerns: Create TodoWrite and proceed
### Step 2: Execute Batch
**Default: First 3 tasks**
For each task:
1. Mark as in_progress
2. Follow each step exactly (plan has bite-sized steps)
3. Run verifications as specified
4. **Update `PROGRESS.md` (at project root)** - REQUIRED: Add a line with current timestamp, task status, and commit hash/evidence.
5. Mark as completed
### Step 3: Report
When batch complete:
- Show what was implemented
- Show verification output
- Say: "Ready for feedback."
### Step 4: Continue
Based on feedback:
- Apply changes if needed
- Execute next batch
- Repeat until complete
### Step 5: Complete Development
After all tasks complete and verified:

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260502.38d5305, 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.
