deepen

To strengthen an existing plan before implementation, you need to add repository research, validation checks, and detailed rollout shaping. This structured review process inspects artifacts and documents to tighten feasibility and scope discipline.

Plan validation through repository research involves integrating repository context, evidence, and dependencies into your existing plan. This process reduces risk by inspecting artifacts and documents to verify feasibility before proceeding with work.

You need to run a deepening pass when a plan exists but lacks necessary validation. It is applicable when your plan requires a rigorous structured review to update scope, check dependencies, and tighten rollout shape before deciding to proceed.

You add validation checks and rollout shape by providing a target plan path to review. The workflow updates the plan with repository context and evidence, allowing you to re-review the strengthened plan before deciding to proceed with work.

Yes, you can strengthen a plan without a specific file path. If you leave the target plan path blank, the system will automatically strengthen the most recent plan before execution using repository research and validation checks.
