  Orchestrates the test-first implementation planning workflow for feature
  implementation and spec changes. Use this skill whenever plan mode is active
  and the task involves implementing or adding a new feature, or changing an
  existing specification. Even if the user only says "plan this" or "how should
  we implement this", load this skill to ensure the full test-first planning
  workflow is followed.

Guide for plan mode. This skill defines the orchestration workflow for test-first implementation planning.

## Mode Check

This skill requires **plan mode**. Before doing anything else, check the current mode:

- `ExitPlanMode` is in the deferred tools list → **not in plan mode** → stop immediately and tell the user:
  > "This skill (`/plan-feature`) requires plan mode. Enter plan mode first: use `/plan` or press Shift+Tab to toggle."
- `ExitPlanMode` is NOT in the deferred tools list (i.e., directly callable) → in plan mode → proceed.

## Task Type Check

If the user's request is to investigate or fix a bug rather than implement a new feature, change a specification, or refactor, use `ExitPlanMode` immediately and guide the user to invoke the `/fix-bug` skill instead. The rest of this skill applies to feature implementation, spec changes, and refactoring only.

## Plan Mode Workflow

### Step 1: Initial Understanding

Launch Explore agents to understand the codebase relevant to the task.

**TBD items:** If the requirements or specifications explicitly contain the text "TBD" for any item, treat that item as non-existent — do not design or implement it. Only ask the user via `AskUserQuestion` if the TBD item is a prerequisite that cannot be deferred without blocking the overall design.

### Step 2: Implementation Design (Plan Agent)

Launch a Plan agent to design the class/method structure. Include the following instruction in the Plan agent prompt:

> Design the class/method seams with **testability** in mind:
> - Prefer small, focused public interfaces
> - For methods that require testing but do not need to be accessible outside the assembly, use `internal` visibility instead of `public`
> - Inject dependencies via interfaces so they can be replaced with test doubles
> - Avoid hidden static/global state and `new` calls inside constructors for external dependencies
>
> **Naming:** If any class or public method name explicitly specified by the user is a poor fit for what the spec describes, propose a more appropriate alternative using `AskUserQuestion` before finalizing the design. Accept the user's final choice without further challenge.
>
> **TBD items:** Any item explicitly marked "TBD" in the requirements or spec must be excluded from the design. Skip it silently unless it is structurally required to complete the design (in which case, ask via `AskUserQuestion`).

The Plan agent output should include **only**:
- Class names and responsibilities
- Public and internal method signatures
- Dependency interfaces (if any)
- Brief rationale for design decisions

**Do NOT include** test cases, manual tests, or any test design — those are the sole responsibility of the `test-designer` agent in Step 3.

### Step 3: Test Case Design (test-designer Agent)

After Step 2, launch the `test-designer` agent using the following prompt structure:

```
## Requirements
[feature requirements]

## Implementation Design
[class names, public and internal method signatures, dependency interfaces, and design rationale from the Step 2 Plan agent]

## Existing Code Context
[relevant existing code structure from Step 1 Explore]

## Language Convention
[project language for test names and prose, e.g., Japanese]
```

**Rules for assembling the prompt:**
- Under `Implementation Design`, include only the design output — **do NOT include any test cases or manual tests** the Plan agent may have produced. Test design is the `test-designer` agent's sole responsibility.
- **Do NOT add output format specifications.** The `test-designer` agent's output format is self-contained; caller-supplied format overrides produce non-standard output.
- **Always include `## Language Convention`.** Resolve the project language from `CLAUDE.md` (look for the language specified for test method names / code comments). If `CLAUDE.md` does not specify a language, default to English. The `## Language Convention` block is a recognized input, not an output format override.

The `test-designer` agent returns:
- **Test Cases** across all layers (Editor tests, Unit tests, Integration tests, Visual verification tests, Manual tests) — ready to paste into the plan file as one block
- **Testability Assessment** (`TESTABILITY: PASS`, `WARN`, or `FAIL`)

#### Handling the Testability Assessment

| Result              | Action                                                                                         |
|---------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `TESTABILITY: PASS` | Proceed to Step 4 (Review)                                                                     |
| `TESTABILITY: WARN` | Proceed to Step 4; record the Testability Issues in the plan file's "Known Trade-offs" section |
| `TESTABILITY: FAIL` | Loop back to Step 2 (see below); maximum **1 retry**                                           |

#### Loopback to Step 2 (on FAIL)

1. Extract the "Testability Issues" table from the `test-designer` agent output
2. Re-launch the Plan agent with:
   - The previous design output
   - The Testability Issues
   - Instruction: "Revise the design to address the Testability Issues listed below"
3. Re-run Step 3 with the revised design
4. If still `FAIL` after one retry → **Abort** (see below)

#### Abort (second consecutive FAIL)

Use `AskUserQuestion` to present the user with three options:
- Proceed with the current design despite testability concerns
- Exit plan mode to revise the requirements
- Provide explicit design hints and re-run Step 2

### Step 4: Review

Read the critical files identified in the plan. Verify that the Plan agent's design and the `test-designer` agent's test cases are consistent with each other and with the user's intent.

### Step 5: Write the Plan File

Assemble the plan file with the following sections:

1. **Context** — why this change is needed
2. **Implementation Design** — from Step 2 Plan agent output
3. **Test Cases** — pasted verbatim as one block from the `test-designer` agent output (all 5 layers: Editor tests, Unit tests, Integration tests, Visual verification tests, Manual tests). Do NOT rewrite, translate, or clean up the output — the `test-designer` agent already enforces the content restrictions defined in `test-designing-guide` (no framework attributes, no async/coroutine patterns, no rationale text, etc.).
4. **Known Trade-offs** — from `TESTABILITY: WARN` issues (if any)
5. **Development Workflow** — Read `${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/resources/development-workflow-template.md` and paste its full contents verbatim as the body of this section in the plan file, then add any project-specific steps per `CLAUDE.md`

### Step 6: Call ExitPlanMode
