Omc Plan

<Use_When>

• User wants to plan before implementing -- "plan this", "plan the", "let's plan"
• User wants structured requirements gathering for a vague idea
• User wants an existing plan reviewed -- "review this plan", --review
• User wants multi-perspective consensus on a plan -- --consensus, "ralplan"
• Task is broad or vague and needs scoping before any code is written </Use_When>

<Do_Not_Use_When>

• User wants autonomous end-to-end execution -- use autopilot instead
• User wants to start coding immediately with a clear task -- use ralph or delegate to executor
• User asks a simple question that can be answered directly -- just answer it
• Task is a single focused fix with obvious scope -- use an execution skill instead of running it from this planning module </Do_Not_Use_When>

<Why_This_Exists> Jumping into code without understanding requirements leads to rework, scope creep, and missed edge cases. Plan provides structured requirements gathering, expert analysis, and quality-gated plans so that execution starts from a solid foundation. The consensus mode adds multi-perspective validation for high-stakes projects. </Why_This_Exists>

<Execution_Policy>

• Auto-detect interview vs direct mode based on request specificity
• Ask one question at a time during interviews -- never batch multiple questions
• Gather codebase facts via explore agent before asking the user about them
• Plans must meet quality standards: 80%+ claims cite file/line, 90%+ criteria are testable
• Consensus mode runs fully automated by default; add --interactive to enable user prompts at draft review and final approval steps
• Consensus mode uses RALPLAN-DR short mode by default; switch to deliberate mode with --deliberate or when the request explicitly signals high risk (auth/security, data migration, destructive/irreversible changes, production incident, compliance/PII, public API breakage)
• Planning/execution boundary: planning modes inspect context and produce plans/specs/proposals only. They MUST mark artifacts as pending approval unless the user has explicitly opted into execution in the current turn or via the structured approval UI. Before explicit execution approval, planning modes MUST NOT run mutation-oriented shell commands, edit source files, commit, push, open PRs, invoke execution skills, or delegate implementation tasks.
• Goal workflow boundary: when a plan compares Claude Code /goal, Ralph, Team, or artifact-only Ultragoal, identify exactly one primary loop authority and use the deterministic conflict policies refuse, adopt_existing, and artifact_only rather than non-deterministic warning handling. /goal facts must cite Claude Code/Anthropic sources only (Claude Code /goal docs: https://code.claude.com/docs/en/goal; Anthropic Claude Code changelog: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/anthropics/claude-code/main/CHANGELOG.md), and plans MUST NOT claim the /goal evaluator independently runs commands or reads files; require surfaced proof evidence before any completion claim.
• Goal workflow doc target: for user-facing comparisons, keep examples aligned with docs/shared/mode-selection-guide.md#goal-oriented-workflow-selection and docs/REFERENCE.md#goal-workflow-ux-goal-ralph-team-ultragoal. </Execution_Policy>
