Lp Do Replan

Re-Plan Orchestrator

/lp-do-replan updates an existing plan by converting uncertainty into evidence-backed task updates.

This orchestrator owns:

1. task selection and mode detection,
2. canonical replan gates,
3. module routing,
4. structured plan delta updates,
5. sequencing handoff,
6. decision-oriented completion output.

Global Invariants

Operating mode

RE-PLANNING ONLY

Allowed actions

• Read/search files and docs.
• Run read-only commands needed for evidence (for example targeted tests, type checks, grep/ripgrep, static analysis commands).
• Update plan and replan notes docs.

Prohibited actions

• Production implementation/refactor/migration changes.
• Destructive shell/git commands.
• Writing throwaway probe code in this skill.

If an assumption requires executable probe code, create a SPIKE precursor task instead of writing probes in /lp-do-replan.

Inputs

• Existing plan: docs/plans/<feature-slug>/plan.md (legacy fallback allowed)
• Optional task IDs to target
• Optional fact-find brief

If plan is missing, route to /lp-do-plan (or create initial plan from fact-find then return).

Invocation Modes

• standard: low-confidence/missing-contract replanning
• checkpoint: mid-build reassessment when /lp-do-build hits CHECKPOINT

Load checkpoint module only in checkpoint mode.

Replan Gates (Canonical)

Evaluate and record these gates for each affected task:

1. Promotion Gate

• <80 -> >=80 requires E2+ evidence or explicit precursor chain.

2. Validation Gate

• Runnable tasks require complete validation contracts before Ready status (task-type appropriate).

3. Precursor Gate

• Unresolved unknowns become formal precursor tasks (INVESTIGATE or SPIKE).
• No inline "needs spike" notes.

4. Sequencing Gate

• If topology changed (tasks added/split/removed/dependencies updated), run /lp-do-sequence in stable-ID mode (no renumbering).

5. Escalation Gate

• Ask user only when decision intent cannot be inferred after evidence review.

Shared doctrine sources:

• ../_shared/confidence-protocol.md
• ../_shared/evidence-ladder.md
• ../_shared/fail-first-biz.md
• ../_shared/validation-contracts.md
• ../_shared/replan-update-format.md
• ../_shared/precursor-doctrine.md

Phase 1: Select Scope

Target explicit IDs when provided; otherwise include:

• all IMPLEMENT tasks below 80,
• all SPIKE tasks below 80,
• all INVESTIGATE tasks below 60,
• runnable tasks with missing/incomplete validation contracts,
• direct dependents affected by those tasks.

Phase 2: Classify Track and Route

Determine per task:

• Execution-Track: code | business-artifact | mixed

Route modules:

• code -> modules/replan-code.md
• business-artifact -> modules/replan-biz.md
• mixed -> both modules + modules/replan-validation.md
• missing/weak validation contracts -> modules/replan-validation.md
• checkpoint invocation -> add modules/replan-checkpoint.md

Phase 3: Apply Deltas to Plan

Use compact delta format from:

• ../_shared/replan-update-format.md

Keep in-plan updates concise; put detailed evidence in:

• docs/plans/<feature-slug>/replan-notes.md when needed.

ID policy:

• Preserve existing TASK-IDs.
• New tasks get next available TASK-ID and remain stable.
• Dependencies reference stable TASK-IDs.

Phase 3.5: Walkthrough Refresh Gate

If the replan changes process topology or operating-model behavior — branch triggers, CI/deploy lanes, approval paths, lifecycle states, handoffs, or multi-app orchestration — refresh the plan's ## Delivered Processes section, not just the task tables.

Rules:

• Re-walk only the affected areas, but keep the full end-state flow internally consistent.
• Update unresolved seams or known issues when task splits, new precursor tasks, or dependency changes alter the delivered process.
• If the refreshed walkthrough exposes a new blocking seam, convert it into an explicit precursor task or lower readiness.

Phase 4: Sequencing

When topology changed, run /lp-do-sequence with stable IDs preserved.

Expected sequence behavior for replan flows:

• reorder tasks,
• refresh Depends on / Blocks consistency,
• refresh Parallelism Guide,
• do not renumber task IDs.

Replan Depth Gate

Track the replan round count in docs/plans/<feature-slug>/replan-notes.md using a frontmatter field Replan-round: N. Increment on each invocation.

If any task has been below its type threshold across 3+ consecutive replan rounds without new evidence or a viable new precursor path:

• Declare that task Infeasible in the plan with a one-line kill rationale.
• If all tasks that were the target of this replan are now Infeasible and no other runnable tasks remain: set plan Status: Infeasible in frontmatter, write a ## Kill Rationale block, surface to user, and stop. Do not route to /lp-do-build.

Phase 5: Readiness Decision

• Ready: runnable tasks meet type thresholds (IMPLEMENT/SPIKE >=80, INVESTIGATE >=60) and have complete validation contracts.
• Partially ready: precursor chain created; blocked tasks remain below type threshold. Build precursor tasks first.
• Blocked (pending-decision): a DECISION task requires user input to proceed. Surface the specific question; build cannot continue until resolved.
• Blocked (low-confidence): tasks remain below threshold with no viable precursor path and have not yet hit the 3-round depth limit. Escalate to user for scope clarification.
• Infeasible: tasks declared infeasible after hitting the replan depth gate. Pipeline ends.

Completion Messages

Ready:

Re-plan complete. Updated docs/plans/<feature-slug>/plan.md. Stable task IDs preserved. Eligible tasks are ready for /lp-do-build. If invoked from a CHECKPOINT in an active build pipeline: automatically resume /lp-do-build <feature-slug> without waiting for manual invocation.

Partially ready:

Re-plan complete. Added precursor chain(s) and updated dependencies with stable task IDs. Build precursor tasks first, then re-run /lp-do-replan for blocked tasks.

Blocked (pending-decision):

Re-plan blocked. DECISION required: [specific question]. Build cannot continue until resolved. See docs/plans/<feature-slug>/replan-notes.md.

Blocked (low-confidence):

Re-plan complete but confidence floor not reached. No viable precursor path found. Escalating to user — scope clarification required before proceeding.

Infeasible:

Re-plan terminated. Task(s) [IDs] declared infeasible after [N] replan rounds with no viable path. Plan Status: Infeasible. See ## Kill Rationale in plan. Pipeline ends here.

Quick Checklist

• Evidence-based confidence adjustments only
• Unknowns converted to formal precursor tasks
• Validation contracts complete for runnable tasks
• Stable task IDs preserved
• ## Delivered Processes refreshed when the replan changed operating-model behavior
• /lp-do-sequence run after topology changes (no renumber)
