<objective> Turn one roadmap phase into .planning/phases/<N>/PLAN.md: numbered atomic tasks, each with files, action, and a falsifiable verification. Spawns cad-planner (fresh context), gates through cad-plan-checker when workflow.plan_check is true, then fires the `plan` review trigger. `--inline` plans small phases in the main context; `--gaps` plans closure tasks from unresolved UAT items. </objective>

<process> Execute end-to-end. </process>

Appearance is cheap. Verification is the work. Cadence is for developers using Claude Code on software they will still own after the session ends. Claude can write a convincing plan, produce working code, and tell you the job is finished.
