Sb Plan

Plan active Spec work

First action: fail closed on an unspecified scope

An explicit request to plan the milestone's shared resources, --shared scope, or a Drive handler with mode shared selects Shared Contract preparation; after applying project language style, read that procedure completely. It is a separate scope with no dedicated Spec and is exempt from the named/all-Spec choice below.

Classify the maintainer's request before reading phase procedures, Spec artifacts, templates, protocols, Steering, or implementation. For a request such as "plan the active work" that names neither one Spec nor all Specs, the only workflow reads permitted are the language-style Rule below and specbind milestone status. Then name every available Spec choice, also name the all-Spec choice, ask the maintainer to select one, and stop.

An Actionable item, a single participating Spec, or an obvious next phase is not scope authorization. Do not run specbind spec status, select a phase reference, investigate missing artifact details, or dispatch a phase until the maintainer chooses named or all-Spec scope. This first-action guard takes precedence over every later routing and scheduling instruction.

Apply project language style

Before authoring orchestration or user-facing prose, read:

specbind rule read language-style --for consume

Apply returned policy only to natural-language prose. NO_CHANGE RULE_ABSENT means no additional project preference; any ERROR line stops the workflow.

Select this Skill for every planning request. It owns both the complete route from Requirements through Tasks approval and an explicitly requested single Requirements, Design, or Tasks phase. The phase procedures are references in this package, not separately selectable Skills.

Select the planning mode

A Drive recovery dispatch carrying explicit --replan authority and named affected Specs is the recovery mode. Read Replan during Drive first, then Complete planning route. The recovery procedure owns the supplied scope and authority where it overrides the ordinary complete-route rules. Do not repeat a scope or delegation question already settled by that dispatch.

Use single-phase mode only when the maintainer explicitly asks to author, revise, resume, or rerun exactly one of Requirements, Design, or Tasks for one named Spec. The request must identify both the Spec and the phase. A request to plan, continue planning, finish planning, or take work to an approved plan is the complete route, even when the CLI currently reports one phase as actionable. Never infer single-phase mode from lifecycle state.

If a single-phase request omits the Spec or names more than one phase, read milestone status only to present the exact missing choices, then stop for the maintainer's selection. Single-phase mode never expands to another Spec or silently continues to a later phase.

For a valid single-phase request, also run specbind spec status <spec> and reject a Direct item. Then read exactly one procedure completely:

• Requirements: Requirements phase
• Design and Contract: Design phase
• Tasks: Tasks phase

Follow that procedure with the authority the maintainer supplied and stop after its phase result. The selected procedure owns its artifact inputs, gate, checkpoint, rewind boundaries, and response. Do not apply the complete-route scope question, delegation bundle, scheduler, Design validation sequence, or Contract Review unless the selected procedure itself routes to one of those independent owners. An explicit phase request is not gate approval unless it also explicitly authorizes that gate after the procedure's stated consequences.

For an ordinary complete route, read Complete planning route completely. It owns scope selection, delegation, scheduling, phase dispatch, validation, the global Contract Review barrier, checkpoints, stopping conditions, and the final report.

Boundaries

• The entrypoint selects one mode and loads only its applicable procedures.
• Never infer all-Spec scope, a gate approval, or rewind authority from a request that did not supply it.
• Never implement, validate completion, or release from this Skill.
