Same command for any agent — swap --agent for claude-code, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Create Plan ## Goal Turn a user prompt into a **single, actionable plan** delivered in the final assistant message. ## Minimal workflow Throughout the entire workflow, operate in read-only mode. Do not write or update files. 1. **Scan context quickly** - Read `README.md` and any obvious docs (`docs/`, `CONTRIBUTING.md`, `ARCHITECTURE.md`). - Skim relevant files (the ones most likely touched). - Identify constraints (language, frameworks, CI/test commands, deployment shape). 2. **Ask follow-ups only if blocking** - Ask **at most 1–2 questions**. - Only ask if you cannot responsibly plan without the answer; prefer multiple-choice. - If unsure but not blocked, make a reasonable assumption and proceed. 3. **Create a plan using the template below** - Start with **1 short paragraph** describing the intent and approach. - Clearly call out what is **in scope** and what is **not in scope** in short. - Then provide a **small checklist** of action items (default 6–10 items). - Each checklist item should be a concrete action and, when helpful, mention files/commands. - **Make items atomic and ordered**: discovery → changes → tests → rollout. - **Verb-first**: “Add…”, “Refactor…”, “Verify…”,

What does the create-plan skill do?
Create a concise plan. Use when a user explicitly asks for a plan related to a coding task.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add composio-community/awesome-codex-skills --skill create-plan --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From composio-community/awesome-codex-skills, a repository with 15,591 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
