System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

Prevents messy refactors and multi-file changes by forcing a plain-English plan that clarifies scope, risks, and verification steps before any edits happen.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Pre-coding planning for big changes: Creates a scope guard for refactors, dependency additions, and architecture shifts so the agent doesn’t “touch ten files silently.”
  • Decision framing by persona: Adjusts emphasis for viber (feel-first, simple terms) versus seasoned (risks, tradeoffs, rollback/verification mindset).
  • Execution gating with confirmation: Stops before editing files until the user explicitly confirms, with clear “proceed / adjust / just ship” paths.

Quick Start

Ask the agent: plan first for my refactor, what will you change and what are the risks, then wait for my confirmation before editing any files.
