AI DevKit · Planning phase guidance for creating and reconciling feature task plans. Use when the user wants to create an implementation plan, update planning docs, mark task progress, capture blockers or new tasks, or run dev-lifecycle planning work.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Dev Planning

Run planning creation and reconciliation for configured AI docs features. Before changing docs, propose the concrete plan for this phase and wait for user approval unless the user already approved the exact phase plan.

## Phase Contract

1. Run `npx ai-devkit@latest lint` before phase work.
2. If working on a named feature, run `npx ai-devkit@latest lint --feature <name>`.
3. Read existing configured planning, implementation, and testing docs before changes. Resolve paths through `lint --feature` instead of assuming `docs/ai`.
4. Keep task creation and updates traceable to requirements, design, testing scenarios, completed work, blockers, or newly discovered scope.
5. If parent `dev-lifecycle` established usable task tracing, emit planning phase, progress, blocker/scope, and next-step events per `task`.

## Create Initial Plan

Use for Phase 4 after requirements, design, and initial testing docs exist.

1. Run `npx ai-devkit@latest lint --feature <name>` and identify the planning doc path it validates. If `docs init-feature` just ran, use the returned planning path as authoritative.
2. Read requirements, design, and testing docs for the feature.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add codeaholicguy/ai-devkit/dev-planning@sha256:e112492287b3a31f

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260703.7628b9e, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
