Automated phase planning generates a PLAN.md file for roadmap milestones by orchestrating research, gap-closure, and verification steps. It normalizes inputs and creates executable plans to reduce manual coordination for product teams.

An executable phase plan with verification loops is an automated workflow that generates PLAN.md and iteratively validates phase readiness. It runs gating checks repeatedly until success criteria are met or maximum iterations are reached.

Workflow gating and iteration controls are configured automatically during plan generation. The system parses arguments, applies workflow gating, and executes iterative verification loops until phase readiness is achieved or max iterations occur.

Yes, you can skip the research step using the skip-research mode to directly generate an executable plan. This mode bypasses initial research to instantly create PLAN.md and proceed straight into gap-closure and verification loops.

You can auto-detect the next unplanned roadmap phase by executing the phase planner without a specific target argument. The system identifies the missing phase and automatically generates the corresponding PLAN.md with verification loops.

Automated phase planning relies on iterative verification loops with a maximum iteration threshold. If complex engineering workflows require continuous gap-closure beyond this limit, the automated orchestration may exit before achieving full phase readiness.
