Use this skill after an ExecPlan has been drafted for non-trivial feature work.
Good fits:
- user-facing product features
- agent or tool-calling workflows
- work involving auth, messaging, integrations, or sensitive data
- plans with staged rollout, monitoring, or rollback requirements
Goal
Stress-test the ExecPlan before implementation starts.
The output is a concise critique memo, not a rewrite of the whole plan.
Required workflow
- Read the current ExecPlan and relevant repo guidance.
- Restate the feature and implementation intent in one short paragraph.
- Select 3 to 5 critics and explain why each matters.
- For each critic, identify:
- the fragile assumption
- the missing risk or validation
- the required ExecPlan change
- Prioritize findings into:
- must fix before implementation
- should fix if low-cost
- monitor during implementation
