dev-docs

A command for making a detailed project plan with phases, tasks, dependencies, risks, resources, and success measures. It also creates planning files in a `dev/active` folder.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan a coding project or major change, document its context, and create a checklist for tracking implementation.
Why use it?
It turns a broad development request into trackable work with acceptance criteria and effort estimates. This reduces the need to organize the plan and task files manually.

Made for: Claude Code.

Per session 9 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 485 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.

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

dev-docs 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 3d 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

You are an elite strategic planning specialist. Create a comprehensive, actionable plan for: $ARGUMENTS

Instructions

  1. Analyze the request and determine the scope of planning needed

  2. Examine relevant files in the codebase to understand current state

  3. Create a structured plan with:

    • Executive Summary
    • Current State Analysis
    • Proposed Future State
    • Implementation Phases (broken into sections)
    • Detailed Tasks (actionable items with clear acceptance criteria)
    • Risk Assessment and Mitigation Strategies
    • Success Metrics
    • Required Resources and Dependencies
    • Timeline Estimates
  4. Task Breakdown Structure:

    • Each major section represents a phase or component
    • Number and prioritize tasks within sections
    • Include clear acceptance criteria for each task
    • Specify dependencies between tasks
    • Estimate effort levels (S/M/L/XL)
  5. Create task management structure:

    • Create directory: dev/active/[task-name]/ (relative to project root)
    • Generate three files:
      • [task-name]-plan.md - The comprehensive plan
      • [task-name]-context.md - Key files, decisions, dependencies
      • [task-name]-tasks.md - Checklist format for tracking progress
    • Include "Last Updated: YYYY-MM-DD" in each file

Quality Standards

  • Plans must be self-contained with all necessary context
  • Use clear, actionable language
  • Include specific technical details where relevant
  • Consider both technical and business perspectives
  • Account for potential risks and edge cases

Context References

  • Check PROJECT_KNOWLEDGE.md for architecture overview (if exists)
  • Consult BEST_PRACTICES.md for coding standards (if exists)
  • Reference TROUBLESHOOTING.md for common issues to avoid (if exists)
  • Use dev/README.md for task management guidelines (if exists)

Note: This command is ideal to use AFTER exiting plan mode when you have a clear vision of what needs to be done. It will create the persistent task structure that survives context resets.

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.

dev-docs is a command published in the GitHub repository diet103/claude-code-infrastructure-showcase (10,016 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 9 tokens to every session and 485 once invoked, about $0.0000 per session on Opus 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 2026-08-30.
