What problem does it solve?
Ultraplan addresses the challenge of planning ambiguous, cross-cutting, or high-risk engineering changes that require deep research, dependency mapping, and structured risk management rather than a simple linear plan. It prevents overlooked integrations, hidden dependencies, and insufficient test coverage by coordinating targeted parallel research before generating an execution strategy.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Parallel exploration agents that concurrently map architecture, surface prior art, analyze risks, and evaluate tests to reduce blind spots.
- Synthesis into a DAG-based execution plan with clear parallelism opportunities, file-level impact lists, and an approval gate before any code changes.
- Risk assessment and approach comparison producing a probability x impact matrix and 2-3 trade-off comparisons to recommend the best path.
- Use Case: Large refactors, multi-service feature rollouts, or architectural migrations that require coordination across teams and careful mitigation planning.
Quick Start
Use the ultraplan skill to run parallel research agents and produce a DAG execution plan, risk matrix, and file impact list for a proposed system-wide change.
