plan

plan is a command for Claude Code from addyosmani/agent-skills. It costs 13 tokens per session (164 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A planning command that turns a software project into small tasks with acceptance criteria, verification steps, and dependency order.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to read a specification and codebase, create a dependency-aware plan, and save it as tasks/plan.md and tasks/todo.md.
Why use it?
It makes the work easier to follow and review by showing what must happen first and how each task will be confirmed.

About the project

addyosmani/agent-skills is a collection of reusable workflows, quality checks, commands, and other instructions that guide AI coding agents through software development. It is for developers who want agents to follow consistent engineering practices, and the catalogue entries are its packaged skills, commands, agents, plugins, instructions, and hooks.

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

plan 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 5d 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

Invoke the agent-skills:planning-and-task-breakdown skill.

Read the existing spec (SPEC.md or equivalent) and the relevant codebase sections. Then:

  1. Enter plan mode — read only, no code changes
  2. Identify the dependency graph between components
  3. Slice work vertically (one complete path per task, not horizontal layers)
  4. Write tasks with acceptance criteria and verification steps
  5. Add checkpoints between phases
  6. Present the plan for human review

Save the plan to tasks/plan.md and task list to tasks/todo.md.

If tasks/plan.md or tasks/todo.md already exists with unchecked tasks for different work, stop and ask before writing — never silently overwrite an incomplete 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.
