name: plan
description: Quick command to invoke implementation-planner to create surgical, reversible implementation plans with rollback procedures.

/plan Command

Create detailed implementation plan using the implementation-planner agent.

Usage

/plan <feature description>

Prerequisites

⚠️ **Requires ResearchPack** from `/research` or `@docs-researcher`

What This Does

1. Checks ResearchPack exists and passed validation (80+) 2. Invokes `@implementation-planner` with your feature 3. Applies `planning-methodology` skill automatically 4. Creates Implementation Plan with:

• Minimal file changes
• Step-by-step instructions
• Verification methods
• Test plan
• Risk assessment
• Rollback procedure

5. Validates Plan (must score 85+) 6. Runs API matcher (Plan APIs must match ResearchPack) 7. Returns ready for implementation

Examples

/plan Add Redis caching with TTL configuration
/plan Implement JWT authentication middleware
/plan Create database migration for users table
/plan Integrate Stripe payment processing

Output

You'll receive a complete Implementation Plan including:

• ✅ File changes (new and modified)
• ✅ Step-by-step implementation sequence
• ✅ Verification method for each step
• ✅ Comprehensive test plan
• ✅ Risk assessment with mitigations
• ✅ Complete rollback procedure
• ✅ Success criteria
• ✅ Time estimates

Quality Gates

Plan will be automatically validated:

• Score must be ≥ 85/100
• APIs used must match ResearchPack (no hallucination)
• Must include rollback procedure
• Must include risk assessment (3+ risks)
• Each step must have verification method

If validation fails, you'll see:

• Specific defects found
• Required score vs actual score
• API mismatches (if any)
• Recommendations to fix

Next Steps

After `/plan` completes: 1. Review the Implementation Plan 2. Verify it makes sense and is minimal 3. Run `/implement` to execute the plan 4. Or use `@code-implementer` directly

Time

Typical completion: **< 3 minutes**

**Executing command...**

Please invoke: `@implementation-planner {args}`

The planning-methodology skill will be automatically applied to ensure minimal-change, reversible plans with complete safety procedures.

The plan will be validated for:

• Completeness (35 pts)
• Safety (30 pts)
• Clarity (20 pts)
• Alignment with ResearchPack (15 pts)
