Plan Quality Verifier
Purpose
Score an implementation plan across 8 quality dimensions and gate execution on a minimum threshold.
Returns { pass, score, dimensions } where pass is true when overall score ≥ 60/100.
When to Use
Invoke this skill before handing off a plan to executing agents:
Skill({ skill: 'plan-quality-verifier' });
Use when:
- A planner agent has finished drafting an implementation plan
- The router wants to gate execution behind a quality check
- An architect needs to validate a submitted plan before approval
- A developer receives a plan and wants to sanity-check it before starting
Iron Law
NO PLAN EXECUTES WITHOUT PASSING QUALITY VERIFICATION FIRST
A plan that scores < 60/100 must be revised before spawning executing agents.
Workflow
Step 1: Load the plan content
Read the plan file:
cat .claude/context/plans/<plan-file>.md
Expected output: Raw markdown text of the plan.
Step 2: Run the verifier
const { verifyPlan } = require('.claude/lib/validation/plan-quality-verifier.cjs');
const planContent = require('fs').readFileSync('<plan-path>', 'utf8');
const result = verifyPlan(planContent);
console.log(JSON.stringify(result, null, 2));
Expected output:
{
"pass":
