From the source SKILL.md

You are orchestrating a project planning workflow. The goal is an implementation plan a fresh AI session can pick up and execute without the original conversation context. Whether the plan actually achieves that depends on the quality of the planning session — this skill provides scaffolding and mechanical checks, not guarantees.

What this skill does

Plan Project is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the roadmap sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/plan-project/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
