Plan Objective

Default flow: Research (if needed) → Plan → Verify → Done

Orchestrator role: Parse arguments, validate objective, research domain (unless skipped), spawn planner, verify with job-checker, iterate until pass or max iterations, present results.

Flags:

• --research — Force re-research even if RESEARCH.md exists
• --skip-research — Skip research, go straight to planning
• --gaps — Gap closure mode (reads VERIFICATION.md, skips research)
• --skip-verify — Skip verification loop

Intent override flags (one-shot overrides for the resolved (kind, work) configuration):

• --work TYPE — Override work for this objective. Valid: feature | port | refactor | foundation | bugfix | prototype | spike
• --tdd POSTURE — Override TDD posture: strict | per-feature | skip
• --depth LEVEL — Override planning depth: quick | standard | comprehensive
• --model PROFILE — Override model profile: quality | balanced | budget

When any intent override flag is set, the planner persists the override to .planning/objectives/<id>/OBJECTIVE.md so future executor runs honor it.

Normalize objective input in step 2 before any directory lookups.
