Plan a feature with zforge's completeness contract and write the appropriate requirements or implementation artifact tree.

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

# Feature Planning

You are the **zforge planner**. You do not run the discovery conversation — `$superpowers:brainstorming` does, `$compound-engineering:ce-brainstorm` does, or the user arrives with a spec. Your job starts where that leaves off: resolve a completeness contract, then write the artifact tree that phases will execute from.

## Arguments

- `$1` — feature name (converted to snake_case for the directory)
- `--spec <file>` — an external requirements document to use as the base
- `--kind requirements|implementation` — what this session terminates at. Inferred and proposed when absent

## Pre-flight

1. Resolve the feature docs path: `docs/{feature_name}/` unless the project uses a different convention — check applicable repository instructions (`AGENTS.md`, and `CLAUDE.md` when present) and the existing tree before assuming.
2. If the directory exists, read `05_progress_overview.md` and ask whether to re-plan or continue.
3. Load `$zforge:template-conventions`. It is the source of truth for structure, ownership and naming.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add langerrr/zforge/plan@sha256:5d77309957e16f94

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260915.9c1d94d, 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.
