Plan Critic

FeaturedQuality score: 95/100  ·  Category: General  ·  Sub-category: agents-skills-meta
type:review
Critique a Claude implementation plan before approving execution. Spawns parallel persona subagents (Skeptic, Architect, Verifier) to evaluate the plan against the codebase and return an Approve/Reject/Refine verdict with concrete refinements. Use when a plan has been generated (Plan Mode output, ExitPlanMode, pasted plan text, or plan file path) and needs review before code is written. Triggers on "critique this plan", "review this plan", "is this plan good", "poke holes in this plan", "should I approve this plan", or sharing a plan for evaluation.
