plan-implementation

Builds a feature implementation plan from an existing feature specification (or equivalent context) through a facilitated team conversation. Use when the user wants to plan how to implement, build, deliver, or ship a feature that has already been specified. Does not specify what the feature should do — use plan-a-feature first. Does not refine or stress-test an already-written plan — use iterative-plan-review.

From the SKILL.md

## Project Context - CLAUDE.md: !`find . -maxdepth 1 -name "CLAUDE.md" -type f` - project-discovery.md: !`find . -maxdepth 3 -name "project-discovery.md" -type f` - personal config directory: !`echo "${CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR:-$HOME/.claude}"` - project .han/config.md: !`cat .han/config.md 2>/dev/null || echo ""` As your first action, use the Read tool on `.han/config.md` inside the `personal config directory` path above. A read that returns no file is no personal configuration: continue silently. When that file or the `project .han/config.md` probe supplies content, apply it per [config-rule.md](../../references/config-rule.md), which governs precedence between the two files, relative-path resolution, and what to do with a file that reads but cannot be used. ## Operating Principles - **The feature specification is the ground truth for _what_, but not for scope.** This skill plans _how_. Do not re-open behavioral decisions the specification already settled; flag contradictions as Open Questions for the user. Scope is the exception, and it is narrow: a specification is an artifact, not a scope authority, so a commitment it carries for a subsystem, integration, or artifact the work item ne

About this skill
What does the plan-implementation skill do?

Builds a feature implementation plan from an existing feature specification (or equivalent context) through a facilitated team conversation. Use when the user wants to plan how to implement, build, deliver, or ship a feature that has already been specified. Does not specify what the feature should do — use plan-a-feature first. Does not refine or stress-test an already-written plan — use iterative-plan-review.

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add testdouble/han --skill plan-implementation --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 testdouble/han, a repository with 154 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.
