# Planning

Read and follow the installed
[Open Dough planning reference](../dough-story-refinement/references/planning.md)
for scope discipline, story-home ownership, refinement lifecycle, and cleanup.

Use `dough-story-decomposition` when the parent problem or candidate selection
is unresolved, `dough-story-refinement` for selected-story understanding,
`dough-slice-planning` for an executable PLAN, and `dough-slice-plan-refinement` for complex
or overrun execution leaves.
