PLAN Command - Task Planning

This command creates detailed implementation plans based on complexity level determined in VAN mode.

Memory Bank Integration

Reads from:

• memory-bank/tasks.md - Task requirements and complexity level
• memory-bank/activeContext.md - Current project context
• memory-bank/projectbrief.md - Project foundation (if exists)

Updates:

• memory-bank/tasks.md - Adds detailed implementation plan

Progressive Rule Loading

Step 1: Load Core Rules

Load: .cursor/rules/isolation_rules/main.mdc
Load: .cursor/rules/isolation_rules/Core/memory-bank-paths.mdc

Step 2: Load PLAN Mode Map

Load: .cursor/rules/isolation_rules/visual-maps/plan-mode-map.mdc

Step 3: Load Complexity-Specific Planning Rules

Based on complexity level from memory-bank/tasks.md:

Level 2:

Load: .cursor/rules/isolation_rules/Level2/task-tracking-basic.mdc
Load: .cursor/rules/isolation_rules/Level2/workflow-level2.mdc

Level 3:

Load: .cursor/rules/isolation_rules/Level3/task-tracking-intermediate.mdc
Load: .cursor/rules/isolation_rules/Level3/planning-comprehensive.mdc
Load: .cursor/rules/isolation_rules/Level3/workflow-level3.mdc

Level 4:

Load: .cursor/rules/isolation_rules/Level4/task-tracking-advanced.mdc
Load: .cursor/rules/isolation_rules/Level4/architectural-planning.mdc
Load: .cursor/rules/isolation_rules/Level4/workflow-level4.mdc

Workflow

1. Read Task Context

   • Read memory-bank/tasks.md to get complexity level
   • Read memory-bank/activeContext.md for current context
   • Review codebase structure

2. Create Implementation Plan

   • Level 2: Document planned changes, files to modify, implementation steps
   • Level 3: Create comprehensive plan with components, dependencies, challenges
   • Level 4: Create phased implementation plan with architectural considerations

3. Technology Validation (Level 2-4)

   • Document technology stack selection
   • Create proof of concept if needed
   • Verify dependencies and build configuration

4. Identify Creative Phases

   • Flag components requiring design decisions
   • Document which components need creative exploration

5. Update Memory Bank

   • Update memory-bank/tasks.md with complete plan
   • Mark planning phase as complete

Usage

Type /plan to start planning based on the task in memory-bank/tasks.md.

Next Steps

• If creative phases identified: Use /creative command
• If no creative phases: Proceed to /build command
