plan

plan is a command for Claude Code, GitHub Copilot from affaan-m/ECC. It costs 9 tokens per session (369 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that turns a requested software change into a step-by-step implementation plan with risks and dependencies.

In plain words
What is it for?
It clarifies requirements, breaks work into phases, lists needed services or APIs, estimates complexity, and waits for approval.
Why use it?
It gives the developer a chance to review the approach before any code is written.

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 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

Implementation Planner

Before writing any code for this feature/task, produce a structured plan.

Steps

  1. Clarify the goal — restate the requirement in one sentence; flag any ambiguities.
  2. Research first — identify existing utilities, libraries, or patterns in the codebase that can be reused. Do not reinvent what already exists.
  3. Identify dependencies — list external packages, APIs, environment variables, or database changes needed.
  4. Break into phases — structure work as ordered phases, each independently shippable:
    • Phase 1: Core data model / schema changes
    • Phase 2: Business logic + unit tests
    • Phase 3: API / integration layer + integration tests
    • Phase 4: UI / consumer layer + E2E tests
  5. Identify risks — note anything that could block progress or cause regressions.
  6. Define done — list the exact acceptance criteria (tests passing, coverage ≥ 80%, no lint errors, docs updated).

Output Format

## Goal
[One-sentence summary]

## Reuse Opportunities
- [Existing utility/pattern]

## Dependencies
- [Package / API / env var]

## Phases
### Phase 1 — [Name]
- [ ] Task A
- [ ] Task B

### Phase 2 — [Name]
...

## Risks
- [Risk and mitigation]

## Definition of Done
- [ ] All tests pass (≥80% coverage)
- [ ] No new lint errors
- [ ] Docs updated if public API changed

Apply ECC coding standards throughout: immutable patterns, small focused files, explicit error handling.

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.
