How it fires

How this skill gets triggered: by you, by Claude, or both.

  • Fires itselfAuto-invocation. Claude auto-loads it when your prompt matches the work.Auto-invocation is when the right skill fires by itself at the right moment, driven by a FLOW.md router and a hook, instead of you invoking it by name. It is the difference between a skill being installed and a skill actually getting used.Read the full definition →

Guide for plan mode. This skill defines the orchestration workflow for test-first implementation planning.

Mode Check

This skill requires **plan mode**. Before doing anything else, check the current mode:

  • `ExitPlanMode` is in the deferred tools list → **not in plan mode** → stop immediately and tell the user:

> "This skill (`/plan-feature`) requires plan mode. Enter plan mode first: use `/plan` or press Shift+Tab to toggle."

  • `ExitPlanMode` is NOT in the deferred tools list (i.e., directly callable) → in plan mode → proceed.

Task Type Check

If the user's request is to investigate or fix a bug rather than implement a new feature, change a specification, or refactor, use `ExitPlanMode` immediately and guide the user to invoke the `/fix-bug` skill instead. The rest of this skill applies to feature implementation, spec changes, and refactoring only.

Plan Mode Workflow

Step 1: Initial Understanding

Launch Explore agents to understand the codebase relevant to the task.

**TBD items:** If the requirements or specifications explicitly contain the text "TBD" for any item, treat that item as non-existent — do not design or implement it. Only ask the user via `AskUserQuestion` if the TBD item is a prerequisite that cannot be deferred without blocking the overall design.

Step 2: Implementation Design (Plan Agent)

Launch a Plan agent to design the class/method structure. Include the following instruction in the Plan agent prompt:

> Design the class/method seams with **testability** in mind: > - Prefer small, focused public interfaces > - **Test through the same seam production code uses.** Tests should exercise the same `public`/`internal` API that production callers go through. Do not promote a `private` method or widen visibility merely to reach it from a test — by default, private stays private. > - **Sanctioned exception (reduce combinatorial coverage):** When a method takes **3 or more parameters** — a heuristic for the real trigger, which is that several *independent* conditions combine so exhaustive coverage cost explodes (this can also happen with fewer parameters that each take many values, and may not apply when the extra parameters don't drive branching) — extract the cohesive sub-logic (a pure computation or decision that depends on only 1–2 of those inputs) into its own unit. Prefer a standalone class or pure function when the logic stands on its own; fall back to an `internal` method on the same class only when it cannot be cleanly separated from instance state. Give the extracted unit `internal` (not `public`) visibility when it need not be reachable outside the assembly — the narrowed visibility is a *consequence* of the extraction, not the goal. > - Inject dependencies via interfaces so they can be replaced with test doubles > - Avoid hidden static/global state and `new` calls inside constructors for external dependencies > > **Naming:** If any class or public method name explicitly specified by the user is a poor fit for what the spec describes, propose a more appropriate alternative using `AskUserQuestion` before finalizing the design. Accept the user's final choice without further challenge. > > **TBD items:** Any item explicitly marked "TBD" in the requirements or spec must be excluded from the design. Skip it silently unless it is structurally required to complete the design (in which case, ask via `AskUserQuestion`).

The Plan agent output should include **only**:

  • Class names and responsibilities
  • Public and internal method signatures
  • Dependency interfaces (if any)
  • File placement: the file path for each new or modified class, and the assembly (`.asmdef`) it belongs to — assembly boundaries drive test references and `InternalsVisibleTo`, so the implementer must not have to re-derive placement
  • Brief rationale for design decisions

**Do NOT include** test cases, manual tests, or any test design and verification instructions — those are the sole responsibility of the `test-designer` agent in Step 3.

Step 3: Test Case Design (test-designer Agent)

After Step 2, launch the `test-designer` agent using the following prompt structure:

## Requirements
[feature requirements]

## Implementation Design
[class names, public and internal method signatures, dependency interfaces, and design rationale from the Step 2 Plan agent]

## Existing Code Context
[relevant existing code structure from Step 1 Explore]

## Language Convention
[project language for test names and prose, e.g., Japanese]

**Rules for assembling the prompt:**

  • Under `Implementation Design`, include only the design output — **do NOT include any test cases or manual tests** the Plan agent may have produced. Test design is the `test-designer` agent's sole responsibility.
  • **Do NOT add output format specifications.** The `test-designer` agent's output format is self-contained; caller-supplied format overrides produce non-standard output.
  • **Always include `## Language Convention`.** Resolve the project language from `CLAUDE.md` (look for the language specified for test method names / code comments). If `CLAUDE.md` does not specify a language, default to English. The `## Language Convention` block is a recognized input, not an output format override.

The `test-designer` agent returns:

  • **Test Cases** across all layers (Editor tests, Unit tests, Integration tests, Visual verification tests, Manual tests) — ready to paste into the plan file as one bl
