Execute

/cs:execute — 90-Day Execution Plan

Command: /cs:execute

Turns an approved decision into a 90-day plan with weekly milestones, named DRIs, and a check-in cadence. Where most decisions die: between "we decided" and "what's next Monday?"

Pipeline Position

/cs:office-hours  →  /cs:brief  →  /cs:boardroom  →  /cs:decide  →  /cs:execute  →  /cs:post-mortem

Input

An approved decision record (output of /cs:decide).

Output Plan Format

Saved to ~/.claude/execution/YYYY-MM-DD-.md:

# Execution Plan: 
**Decision:** 
**Owner (Sponsor):** 
**Start:** YYYY-MM-DD
**Checkpoint:** YYYY-MM-DD (90d)

## Outcome (binding)
[Copied from decision: success + kill criteria]

## Workstreams
| Workstream | DRI | Success Metric | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
|  |  |  | Not started |
|  |  |  | Not started |
|  |  |  | Not started |

## Weekly Milestones
| Week | Milestone | DRI | Definition of Done |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 |  |  |  |
| 2 |  |  |  |
| 3 | ... | | |
| 12 |  |  |  |

## Cadence
- **Weekly:** Owner reviews status (15 min)
- **Bi-weekly:** Cross-functional sync (30 min)
- **Day 30 / 60 / 90:** Checkpoint with cs-chief-of-staff

## Kill Criteria Watch

Workflow

1. Read the decision record
2. Decompose the chosen option into 3-6 workstreams
3. Name a DRI for each workstream
4. Reverse-engineer 12 weekly milestones from the checkpoint date
5. Set the cadence (weekly + bi-weekly + 30/60/90 checkpoints)
6. Build the risk register (cross-reference original Phase 4 devil's-advocate concerns)
7. Save and notify DRIs

Why 90 Days

• Long enough to show real signal (not just activity)
• Short enough to course-correct before damage compounds
• Matches quarterly OKR cycle, fundraise sprints, and most board cadences

Routing

• /cs:post-mortem — at day 90 (or earlier if kill criteria trigger)
• /cs:boardroom — if a checkpoint reveals a need to re-decide
