What problem does it solve?
Plan Mode helps teams avoid premature implementation by generating a decision-complete plan before any coding or integration work.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Generates a structured plan capturing goals, scope, constraints, assumptions, and material open questions.
- Maps requirements to concrete implementation areas, decisions, or named resources.
- Provides guidance on data flow, state transitions, failure handling, privacy, migrations, rollout, and monitoring when relevant.
- Use Case: When the user explicitly asks for a plan, design, implementation plan, spec, proposal, or planning-only pass; or when the request is large, ambiguous, risky, or spans multiple files/systems and needs a plan before execution.
