Documentation

README

Excerpt

Happier Plan

Create a repository plan only on an explicit current-user request. Planning is a human-controlled product/design decision, not an agent-selected prerequisite. Do not invoke this skill to implement an existing plan, update ordinary execution status, review completed work, or create an internal ephemeral checklist.

1. Establish authorization and mode

Classify the explicit request as one of:

CREATE: author a new repository plan;
REFINE: materially change a draft or approved plan as the user requested;
REPLACE: supersede an existing plan with a user-requested successor;
AMEND: record a user-approved change to an approved execution contract.

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
