plan-create from markshust/hcf is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Create structured implementation plans for autonomous TDD development. Use for new features, multi-file changes, or anything requiring multiple steps or tests. Triggers on aspirational openers ("let's build", "let's start building", "I want to make", "I want an app that", "help me build"), capability lists ("users should be able to X, Y, Z"), vague-noun patterns ("a system for", "a way to", "an app that", "functionality for"), and explicit build verbs ("build", "create", "add a feature…

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 Create

Transform feature requests into structured plans with task breakdowns, dependencies, and TDD requirements for parallel autonomous execution.

## Execution Flow

### Phase 0: Pre-plan hook

Run this once, at the very start, before Phase 1 discovery.

**Run the `pre-plan` hook.**

Run the discovery script — never enumerate agent files by hand:

```bash
"{skill-base-dir}/../../hooks/discover-hooks.sh" --hook=pre-plan
```

`{skill-base-dir}` is the **`Base directory for this skill`** value stated when this skill loaded. `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}` is not available in a skill's Bash calls.

- **Exit 0, empty stdout** → empty hook. This is the default. Return immediately: print nothing, spawn nothing, say nothing about the hook at all, and proceed to Phase 1. Do **not** narrate that the script returned no agents — that is the narration `HOOKS.md` forbids.
- **Exit 0, output** → **print the output verbatim** as the resolved agent order, then spawn each listed agent in order per its `mode`.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add markshust/hcf/plan-create@sha256:dde505e9d6c1f676

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261008.f6f75cc, 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.
