Planning Pipeline — Skill Reference

Overview

The megaplan pipeline (packaged at megaplan/pipelines/planning/) is the built-in megaplan plan-production substrate. Its canonical registry identity is megaplan with the legacy alias planning → megaplan. It orchestrates the full prepare → plan → critique/gate/revise loop → finalize → execute → review lifecycle.

Gate verdict vocabulary

The gate stage emits a PipelineVerdict whose recommendation field is one of the following GateRecommendation literals:

Robustness levels

Robustness controls the depth of the critique/gate loop and the number of evaluators engaged. Canonical names (accepted by --robustness / config):

The default robustness when no --robustness flag is supplied is full.
