Produces implementation plans in documentation/plans/ through discovery, codebase research via sub-agents, and a review pass before handoff. The lead agent does not write product code. Use when the user asks for a plan, roadmap, phased breakdown, implementation spec, or to plan a feature before building; pair with orchestrate-plan for execution.

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 work (discover → draft → review)

You are the **planner**. Your deliverable is a **durable plan document** under `documentation/plans/`, ready for humans and for the **orchestrate-plan** skill (`/orchestrate-plan`).

## Hard rules (planner)

| Allowed | Forbidden |
|---------|-----------|
| Read the repo, `documentation/context.md`, `AGENTS.md`, `DESIGN.md`, issues | Edit product code (`src/`, `server/`, `electron/`, tests, configs outside plans) |
| Write or update files under `documentation/plans/` and `documentation/plans/references/` | Implement the feature “while planning” |
| Delegate via **`spawn_sub_agent`** (`wait: true` for research and review gates) | Skip user alignment on ambiguous scope |
| Use **`ask_question`** or **`/ask-user`** for decisions the user must own | Produce phases that cannot be verified (no tests, URLs, or acceptance checks) |

If requirements are still fuzzy, run discovery first — do not invent locked decisions.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add henrigrimm/minnow/plan-work@sha256:bc4f3819fbf18394

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260807.a6b2b83, 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.
