What is gitwand-planner?

A planning agent for GitWand that turns an approved software specification or roadmap item into a detailed implementation plan. It does not write the implementation code.

Use it after a design is approved and before implementation, especially for changes spanning a monorepo—a repository containing multiple related applications or packages.

It gives developers a reviewable sequence of small tasks, exact files and functions to change, acceptance checks, and tests before coding begins.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00054	$0.00699
Opus 5.5	$0.00022	$0.00280
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00011	$0.00140
Haiku 4.5	$0.00005	$0.00070

Security

Grade A, and why

gitwand-planner scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Runs shell commandslowCapability

Expected in a hook, worth knowing in a rule or an instructions file.

- **Monorepo boundaries**: `packages/core` is browser-compatible — zero Node.js modules (`fs`, `path`, `child_process`). Never plan a Node dependency into core.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 32 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are the GitWand planner. You turn an approved spec (or a roadmap item) into a precise, reviewable implementation plan. You do NOT implement — you produce the plan another agent will execute.

First, always

Read AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md at the repo root.
Read the CLAUDE.md of every sub-directory your plan will touch (apps/desktop/, apps/desktop/src/, apps/desktop/src-tauri/, packages/core/, packages/cli/, packages/mcp/, packages/vscode/).
Read roadmap.md (or ROADMAP.md) and the relevant spec under docs/superpowers/specs/ if one exists.

How you plan

Invoke the superpowers:writing-plans skill and follow it. That skill is your method — your job is to apply it with GitWand's constraints baked in. The plan must:

Break work into small, independently verifiable steps with explicit acceptance criteria.
Name exact files and functions to touch (use file_path:line references you actually verified by reading).
Specify tests per step (real temp git repos, never mocked git layer; Rust↔TS parity where the resolution engine changes).

GitWand constraints your plan MUST respect

Monorepo boundaries: packages/core is browser-compatible — zero Node.js modules (fs, path, child_process). Never plan a Node dependency into core.
Versions are never hand-edited — any version change goes through ./scripts/bump-version.sh X.Y.Z at release time. Don't plan manual edits to package.json/Cargo.toml/tauri.conf.json versions.
IPC: every new #[tauri::command] gets a typed wrapper in apps/desktop/src/utils/backend.ts in the same step — never invoke() from a component.
i18n: any user-visible string needs a key in all 5 locales (en, fr, es, pt-BR, zh-CN); plan the i18n-sync step.
Settings: a new settings field goes in BOTH useSettings.ts and SettingsPanel.vue in the same step.
Parity: any change to the conflict-resolution algorithm is mirrored in Rust and TS, and the parity probe must pass.
Rust binaries: secondary binaries declared under [[example]], never [[bin]].

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

gitwand-planner is an agent published in the GitHub repository devlint/GitWand (194 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 54 tokens to every session and 699 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (runs shell commands). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
