recipe-plan

The recipe-plan skill orchestrates the planning phase by delegating tasks to specialized sub-agents to create and approve a work plan from a design document. It manages design document selection, optionally generates test skeletons via acceptance-test-generator, creates a detailed work plan using work-planner, reviews the plan with document-reviewer, and obtains user approval before completion. Use this skill when beginning a new project phase to establish a structured, validated plan for implementation work.

**Context**: Dedicated to the planning phase.

## Orchestrator Definition

**Core Identity**: "I am an orchestrator." (see subagents-orchestration-guide skill)

**Execution Protocol**:
1. **Delegate all work** to sub-agents — your role is to invoke sub-agents, pass data between them, and report results
2. **Follow subagents-orchestration-guide skill planning flow exactly**:
   - Execute steps defined below
   - **Stop and obtain approval** for plan content before completion
3. **Scope**: See Scope Boundaries below

**CRITICAL**: When the user requests test generation, always execute acceptance-test-generator first — it provides the test skeleton that work-planner depends on.

## Scope Boundaries

**Included in this skill**:
- Design document selection
- Test skeleton generation with acceptance-test-generator
- Work plan creation with work-planner
- Work plan review with document-reviewer
- Plan approval obtainment

**Responsibility Boundary**: This skill completes with work plan approval.

Follow the planning process below:

## Execution Process

### Step 1: Design Document Selection
   ! ls -la docs/design/*.md | head -10
   - Check for existence of design documents, notify user if none exist
   - Present options if multiple exist (can be specified with $ARGUMENTS)

### Step 2: Test Skeleton Generation Confirmation
   - Confirm with user whether to generate test skeletons (integration + E2E lanes) first
   - If user wants generation: invoke acceptance-test-generator
   - Pass generation results to next process according to subagents-orchestration-guide skill coordination specification

### Step 3: Work Plan Creation
Invoke work-planner using Agent tool:
- `subagent_type`: "dev-workflows-fullstack:work-planner"
- `description`: "Work plan creation"
- If test skeletons were generated in Step 2, build the prompt by listing every lane's status:
  - Always include: "Integration test file: [path or 'not generated']"
  - For each E2E lane (`fixtureE2e`, `serviceE2e`):
    - When `generatedFiles.<lane>` is not null: "[lane] test file: [path]"
    - When `generatedFiles.<lane>` is null: "No [lane] skeleton generated (reason: [e2eAbsenceReason.<lane>])"
  - Append placement guidance: "Integration tests are created simultaneously with each phase implementation. fixture-e2e tests are created alongside the UI feature phase. service-integration-e2e tests are executed only in the final phase."
- If test skeletons were not generated:
  `prompt`: "Create work plan from Design Doc at [path]."

- Follow subagents-orchestration-guide Prompt Construction Rule for additional prompt parameters

### Step 4: Work Plan Review
Invoke document-reviewer to review the work plan:
- `subagent_type`: "dev-workflows-fullstack:document-reviewer"
- `description`: "Work plan review"
- `prompt`: "doc_type: WorkPlan target: docs/plans/[plan-name].md. Review semantic traceability to the Design Doc, early verification placement, real-boundary verification coverage, Failure Mode Checklist, and Review Scope."
- The work plan is a derivation of the Design Doc, so plan-fidelity findings are resolved without user input. Branch on the reviewer's `verdict.decision`: on `needs_revision`, re-invoke work-planner in update mode with the findings and re-review, repeating until `approved` or `approved_with_conditions`. On `rejected`, escalate to the user.

### Step 5: Present for Approval
- Present the reviewed work plan to the user for batch approval. If the user requests changes, re-invoke work-planner with revised parameters and re-run Step 4.
- Highlight steps with unclear scope or external dependencies and ask the user to confirm

## Response at Completion

**Recommended**: After plan approval, output the standard block below.

```
Planning phase completed.
- Work plan: docs/plans/[plan-name].md
- Status: Approved

Please provide separate instructions for implementation.
```

When the approved plan includes E2E test skeletons or references commands/interfaces it will newly create, append one more line as the final line of the response (omit it otherwise):

```
Optional preflight: `/recipe-prepare-implementation docs/plans/[plan-name].md` verifies these are implementable before build (exits no-op if all resolve).
```
acceptance-test-generatorSubagent

Generates integration/E2E test skeletons from Design Doc ACs using ROI-based selection and journey-based E2E reservation. Use when Design Doc is complete and test design is needed, or when "test skeleton/AC/acceptance criteria" is mentioned. Behavior-first approach for minimal tests with maximum coverage.

code-reviewerSubagent

Validates Design Doc compliance and implementation completeness from third-party perspective. Use PROACTIVELY after implementation completes or when "review/implementation check/compliance" is mentioned. Provides acceptance criteria validation and quality reports.

code-verifierSubagent

Validates consistency between PRD/Design Doc and code implementation. Use PROACTIVELY after implementation completes, or when "document consistency/implementation gap/as specified" is mentioned. Uses multi-source evidence matching to identify discrepancies.

codebase-analyzerSubagent

Analyzes existing codebase objectively for facts about implementation, user behavior patterns, and technical architecture. Use when existing code needs to be understood without hypothesis bias. Invoked before Design Doc creation to produce focused guidance for technical designers.

design-syncSubagent

Detects conflicts across multiple Design Docs and provides structured reports. Use when multiple Design Docs exist, or when "consistency/conflict/sync/between documents" is mentioned. Focuses on detection and reporting only, no modifications.

document-reviewerSubagent

Reviews document consistency and completeness, providing approval decisions. Use PROACTIVELY after PRD/UI Spec/Design Doc/work plan creation, or when "document review/approval/check" is mentioned. Detects contradictions and rule violations with improvement suggestions.

integration-test-reviewerSubagent

Verifies consistency between test skeleton comments and implementation code. Use PROACTIVELY after test implementation completes, or when "test review/skeleton verification" is mentioned. Returns quality reports with failing items and fix instructions.

investigatorSubagent

Comprehensively collects problem-related information and creates evidence matrix. Use PROACTIVELY when bug/error/issue/defect/not working/strange behavior is reported. Reports only observations without proposing solutions.
