What problem does it solve? Turning a rough idea into an implementation plan a coding agent can execute is hard: single-pass plans are shallow, unverified, and cite file references that may not exist. This Skill produces grounded, self-reviewed implementation plans by investigating the codebase first and revising drafts against structured critique. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Four Operating Modes: Assessment mode freezes scope and risk classification across eight domains; Create mode drafts the full plan; Clarify mode surfaces blocking operator questions; Update mode validates critique and revises the plan. - Structured Plan Contract: Every plan follows a strict document contract with YAML frontmatter, Verified Facts with file:line anchors, phased Work Plan with acceptance gates, STOP triggers, and a Mermaid impact graph. - Schema-Validated Output: JSON outputs conform to readiness, clarification, and update-metadata schemas, with per-issue verdicts and systemic dispositions for accepted critique. - Use Case: Hand the Skill a feature request for a multi-repository change; it inspects the code, classifies risk domains, asks only genuinely blocking questions, then emits a split-ready execution plan with verified file references. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to create an implementation plan for your feature request and let it inspect the repository before drafting the phased plan.
