Create Plan
Generate structured Plan.md files for pending vault items.
Workflow
1. Read Context
- Read
vault/Company_Handbook.mdfor processing rules and priorities - Read
vault/Business_Goals.mdfor business context and metrics
2. Analyze Pending Items
For each .md file in vault/Needs_Action/:
- Parse YAML frontmatter to extract: type, priority, source, status
- Skip items that already have
status: planned - Determine action type (email, file_drop, linkedin_*, etc.)
3. Create Plan
For each item, create a PLAN_YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS_<source>.md in vault/Plans/:
---
type: plan
plan_id: "PLAN_..."
source_file: "original_file.md"
action_type: email|file_drop|linkedin_*
priority: high|medium|low
created: ISO-8601
status: pending
requires_approval: true|false

- Never skip the approval step for sensitive actions
- Plans are proposals - they don't execute actions themselves
