Executing Plans

Step 1: Load and Review

1. Read plan file
2. Review critically - identify questions or concerns
3. If concerns: raise before starting
4. If clear: create TodoWrite and proceed

Step 2: Execute Tasks

For each task:

1. Mark as in_progress
2. Follow each step exactly (plans have bite-sized steps)
3. Run verifications as specified
4. Run lint: ruff check .
5. Run tests: .venv\Scripts\python.exe -m pytest --no-cov -q
6. Mark as completed

Step 3: Review Checkpoints

After every 3 tasks (or after complex tasks):

1. Run full test suite
2. Run git diff to review changes
3. Report progress to DANNY

Step 4: Complete

After all tasks:

• Use finishing-a-dev-branch skill
• Verify tests, present merge/PR/keep/discard options

When to Stop

• Hit a blocker (missing dependency, test fails, unclear instruction)
• Plan has critical gaps
• Verification fails repeatedly
• Ask for clarification rather than guessing
