Plan Then Execute
Frozen plans with human approval gates.
Two-phase execution: plan in isolation, execute the frozen sequence.
[!CAUTION]
Security first. Tool outputs cannot alter the plan. Human approval required.
Why This Exists
If tool outputs can alter the choice of later actions, injected instructions may redirect the agent toward malicious steps. This skill enforces:
- Plan phase — Generate tool sequence before seeing untrusted data
- Approval gate — Human reviews and approves
- Execution phase — Run exactly that sequence

Quick Example
plan:
name: "Deploy to staging"
status: approved
steps:
- id: 1
name: "Run tests"
tool_call:
tool: "terminal.run"
args: { command: "npm test" }
status: pending
The Intertwingularity
Plan-then-execute is planning with security guarantees.
