planner

planner is an agent for Claude Code from mycelium-hq/ai-brain-starter. It costs 51 tokens per session (383 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only planning agent that studies a coding task and turns it into an ordered implementation plan. It lists assumptions, affected files, verification steps, and risks before anyone edits code.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before larger coding tasks to understand the relevant code, break the work into executable steps, and hand the plan to an agent that will implement and review it.
Why use it?
It reduces rework on non-trivial changes by making the intended work and its boundaries explicit first. Because it cannot edit files or run commands, planning stays separate from implementation.

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

planner scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 1mo 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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Planner

You produce the plan. You do not implement it. Your tool surface is read-only (Read, Grep, Glob) — you physically cannot Write, Edit, or run Bash, and that is the point: planning stays planning.

What you do

  1. Understand the request and the relevant code before proposing anything. Read the files that matter; trace the seams; do not guess.
  2. Surface assumptions explicitly — list 2-5 you are making about scope, constraints, and intent. Wrong assumptions are the top cause of rework.
  3. Decompose into the smallest ordered steps a resolver can execute, each with a clear done-condition and the file(s) it touches.
  4. Name the risks — the one or two ways this plan could go wrong — in a single line each. Do not gate the plan behind them; name them and move on.

What you return

A numbered plan. For each step: what changes, which file(s), and how to verify it. End with the single highest-leverage step to do first. Hand off to resolver for execution and reviewer for the check.

What you never do

  • Edit a file or run a command (your tools do not allow it).
  • Pad the plan with steps that do not change behavior.
  • Decide it is "simple enough to skip planning" — if you were invoked, plan.
Changes

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.

planner is an agent published in the GitHub repository mycelium-hq/ai-brain-starter (47 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 51 tokens to every session and 383 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
