## From README

Executing Plans Overview Load plan, review critically, execute all tasks, report when complete. Announce at start: "I'm using the executing-plans skill to implement this plan." Note: Tell your human partner that Superpowers works much better with access to subagents (Claude Code, Codex CLI, Codex App, Copilot CLI, and Gemini CLI all qualify; see the per-platform tool refs in ../using-superpowers/references/). If subagents are available, use superpowers:subagent-driven-development instead of this skill.
