plan-loop

De la autor

Use when the user has a coding or engineering prompt and wants it refined into a detailed, executable plan before any code is written — the planning stage of a prompt → plan → execute → debug pipeline. It decomposes the prompt from first principles (objective, end state, environment, building blocks, tools, packages), breaks the work into PR-sized tasks each tied to a component with its files, tests, and dependencies, orders them topologically, splits each into atomic subtasks, then a separate principal-engineer agent critiques the plan for alignment, coverage, sizing, and executability; it revises until the critique passes, emitting a plan.md layout and a structured tasks.json that a junior engineer or a smaller model can execute correctly. Not for executing, scaffolding, or debugging the plan (those are downstream loops), and not for research proposals or experiment plans.
