Execution Planning

Core principle: A decision without a plan is a wish. Execution planning bridges the gap between "we've decided" and "it's done" by decomposing work into tasks with dependencies, owners, timelines, and risk buffers. The plan's job is not to predict the future perfectly — it's to make the critical path visible and the risks explicit.


When to Use This Skill

  • A decision has been made (via decision-synthesis, architecture-evaluation, or direct commitment) and needs to be implemented
  • Work involves multiple people, teams, or phases that must be coordinated
  • Someone asks "how long will this take?" and the honest answer requires decomposition
  • A project is underway but has no visible critical path or dependency map
  • An architecture decision (via Contract E from architecture-evaluation) needs to be turned into a build plan

Core Methodology
