Author a phased implementation plan for a new feature following the repo's `ai-plans/` conventions — including the dependency graph that lets independent phases be implemented in parallel. Use when the user asks to "plan", "design", "scope", or "break down" a feature, write an implementation plan / IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md, or turn a spec/idea into a phased roadmap. Always interrogates the requester before drafting. Validates the emitted workflow with `vinta-ai-maestro validate` when maestro is…

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

# Plan Feature

Plans live in `ai-plans/` as `YYYY-MM-DD-FEATURE_NAME_IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md` (uppercase + underscores). `..._SPEC.md` sibling exists → **read first**. Plan translates spec into phased delivery, doesn't re-derive requirements. No spec? Point at [create-spec](../create-spec/SKILL.md) first; plan without spec = plausible-sounding but unverified. Spec/plan pair share `YYYY-MM-DD-FEATURE_NAME` prefix.

Every plan ships **two** files: the markdown above, and its executable sibling `ai-plans/{TODAY}-<feature-kebab>.workflow.json` — same date prefix, the same phase graph in the form an orchestrator runs. See "Emit the executable workflow". Written every time; never gated on a question.

Once both are written, the workflow is validated ("Validate the workflow with vinta-ai-maestro", when it is installed) and the plan goes to the human for review ("Review the plan with the human"). A review on maestro's page adds a third file, `ai-plans/{TODAY}-<feature-kebab>.review.json`, which holds the comments and the conversation.

## Step 0 — Interrogate before drafting (NON-NEGOTIABLE)

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add vintasoftware/vinta-ai-workflows/plan-feature@sha256:3a5e3a498dec2aeb

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261026.4783298, 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.
