Explicit User Instruction: The user explicitly instructs and authorizes every subagent call named in this recipe. Execute each applicable call when its prerequisites are met.

Execute Skill: llm-friendly-context before writing Agent prompts, handoffs, or generated artifacts. Execute Skill: subagents-orchestration-guide before making workflow decisions, invoking agents, or resolving findings.

Context: Dedicated to the planning phase.

Orchestrator Definition

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

Local authority gate: Make this recipe's workflow decisions and validate each returned result directly; delegate semantic deliverable production to the named specialist.

Review Resolution Gate [MANDATORY]: Resolve every actionable deliverable-review finding through subagents-orchestration-guide Review Resolution before correction or progression. Before the first finding disposition, read references/review-resolution.md from the loaded subagents-orchestration-guide skill.

Execution Protocol:

1. Invoke named specialists for deliverable production — pass data between them and validate their results
2. Follow subagents-orchestration-guide skill planning flow exactly:

• Execute steps defined below
• Stop and obtain approval for plan content before completion

1. Scope: See Scope Boundaries below

At each Agent invocation below, build the prompt as a mechanical extraction: copy the named source values into the exact fields, apply only the declared serialization, then invoke immediately.

Acceptance-test-generator is part of this planning flow and may return no selected lanes when the Design Doc has no justified integration/E2E proof boundary.

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 when the user authorizes implementation of the reviewed plan.

Follow the planning process below:

Execution Process

Step 1: Design Document Selection

• Use the Design Doc explicitly supplied in $ARGUMENTS when present
• Otherwise use the only Design Doc under docs/design/ when exactly one exists
• Report when none exist; when multiple exist, present them for selection

Step 2: Test Skeleton Generation

• Invoke acceptance-test-generator with design_docs: [selected Design Doc path] and confirmed_requirement_context as the approved PRD path named by its Requirement Convergence section, or that section's unchanged convergence record when no PRD exists
• Follow subagents-orchestration-guide HC-06 for generated-path and empty-lane coverage checks
• Pass every non-null generated skeleton path to the next process; treat an evidence-backed empty lane as complete for that lane and continue to the next process

Step 3: Work Plan Creation

Invoke work-planner using Agent tool:

• subagent_type: "dev-workflows:work-planner"
• description: "Work plan creation"
• mode: create
• designDoc: [selected Design Doc path]
• prd: [approved PRD path] when one exists
• testSkeletons: [non-null generatedFiles paths]

Step 4: Work Plan Review

Invoke document-reviewer to review the work plan:

• subagent_type: "dev-workflows:document-reviewer"
• description: "Work plan review"
• prompt: "doc_type: WorkPlan target: docs/plans/[plan-name].md. Review the Work Plan's own Implementation Scope, tasks, Completion Criteria, dependencies, execution order, exact source-anchor existence, executable verification, and Review Scope. Governing Documents paths are citation sources only; keep issues limited to violations of cited obligations."
• Run the Review Resolution Gate through correction re-review, its parent requirement or authority exits, and convergence, using work-planner in update mode for rerouted corrections. Present the plan for approval only at its convergence condition.

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 the user's requested changes verbatim and re-run Step 4.
• Record unresolved technical evidence or external dependencies in the plan with their affected task and verification boundary. Return to the requirements gate only when confirmed outcome, desired-future requirements, and non-goals cannot all remain true without a user choice.

Response at Completion

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

Planning phase completed.
- Work plan: docs/plans/[plan-name].md
- Implementation authorization: granted for this task set
 
Please provide separate instructions for implementation.

When findings were declined during Work Plan review, append their IDs, governing reasons, and evidence to this completion response.
