To generate an executable PLAN.md for a roadmap phase, specify the phase identifier to automatically produce a plan with embedded research context, acceptance criteria, and verification steps.

Phase orchestration with integrated verification loops is a planning mechanism that handles optional research, skip flags, and iterative refinement across planning stages to ensure alignment.

Automate gap closure and research during phase planning by running an orchestration skill that validates phases, performs domain research, and iteratively refines outputs through safety gates.

Yes, you can skip research steps when generating a phase plan by using skip flags within the phase orchestration workflow to bypass optional research and proceed directly to planning.

Automated phase planning with verification gates relies on argument parsing and phase validation, meaning its limitations include dependency on accurate phase identifiers and strict safety gate conditions to proceed.
