Writing Plans

/collaboration:writing-plans

Transforms brainstorm output into a concrete execution plan that cortex can enforce.

Inputs

• Brainstorm summary (see /ctx:brainstorm).
• Relevant workflows in workflows/ and rules in rules/Planning.md.
• Any mandated modes (e.g., modes/Super_Saiyan.md, modes/Security_Audit.md).

Steps

1. Restate Objective
   • One paragraph referencing ticket/issue + constraints.
2. Identify Workstreams
   • Break work into 2–5 streams (frontend, backend, docs, infra, etc.).
   • For each, list required agents/modes/rules.
3. Define Tasks per Stream
   • Bullet tasks with Definition of Done + validation (tests, lint, visual review).
   • Include verification hooks (rules/, commands/testing.yaml).
4. Risk / Mitigation
   • Capture open questions, dependencies, rollback steps.
5. Task Sync
   • For each bullet, create a Task TUI entry (press T → A).
   • OR run /ctx:execute-plan after this skill to auto-seed tasks (coming soon).

Output template

## Objective

## Workstreams
### Stream 1 – <name>
- Task … (agent/mode/rule, validation)
- Task …

### Stream 2 – …

## Risks & Mitigations
- …

Store the plan in chat + docs/plans/<date>-<slug>.md if long-lived. Then move to /ctx:execute-plan.
