plannotator-annotate

A command that opens an interactive review and annotation screen for a Markdown file. Markdown is a plain-text format commonly used for documentation and plans.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to open a Markdown file for approval, dismissal, or specific annotated feedback.
Why use it?
It lets someone review a document and leave comments directly against its content instead of exchanging vague feedback separately.

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

plannotator-annotate 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 2d 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

Markdown Annotations

!plannotator annotate $ARGUMENTS

Your task

The output above will be one of:

  1. The exact text The user approved., OR a JSON object with "decision": "approved". The user approved the markdown file. If that object also carries a "feedback" field, the user approved with notes: read them and carry them into subsequent work — they are non-blocking guidance, not a request to revise the file. Otherwise acknowledge with a single sentence ("Approved.") and stop. Either way, do not begin any work.
  2. Empty, OR a JSON object with "decision": "dismissed". The user closed the session without requesting changes. Acknowledge with a single sentence ("Annotation session closed.") and stop. Do not begin any work.
  3. Plaintext annotation feedback, OR a JSON object with "decision": "annotated" and a "feedback" field. Address the feedback. The user has reviewed the markdown file and provided specific annotations and comments.
  4. A message that the arguments could not be resolved to a file, URL, or folder. The user described what to annotate in natural language: work out which file, URL, or folder they mean, run plannotator annotate <path-or-url> yourself with that concrete target (keeping any flags the message echoes), then handle its output per cases 1-3.

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.
