plan

A task-planning command that defines the work, its file boundaries, risk level, and supporting evidence before coding starts.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to turn a feature or bug description into a reviewed task contract, list intended files, assess confidence, and request clarification when needed.
Why use it?
It helps prevent unclear scope and catches uncertainty or high-risk changes before implementation begins.

Getting it into your agent

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

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 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

/ag:plan - Task Planning

Triggers

  • User wants to plan a coding task
  • User describes a feature or fix to implement
  • User types /ag:plan

Context Trigger Pattern

/ag:plan <task-description> [--intended-files <file1>, <file2>] [--risk-level standard|high]

Default behavior: npx agent-guardrails plan --task "<task-description>"

Behavioral Flow

  1. Confidence check: Assess confidence before planning
    • ≥90%: Proceed directly
    • 70-89%: Present plan alternatives
    • <70%: Ask user for clarification
  2. Plan: Execute npx agent-guardrails plan --task "<description>"
  3. Review: Show task contract (allowed paths, intended files, risk level)
  4. Confirm: Ask user if plan looks correct before implementation

Key Patterns

  • Scope definition: Clearly define what files are in/out of scope
  • Risk assessment: Flag high-risk changes (auth, security, critical paths)
  • Evidence tracking: Set up evidence file for task tracking

Examples

Basic planning

/ag:plan Add user authentication
# Runs: npx agent-guardrails plan --task "Add user authentication"
# Shows: task contract with allowed paths, risk level

Planning with scope

/ag:plan Fix login bug --intended-files src/auth.js, tests/auth.test.js
# Runs: npx agent-guardrails plan --task "Fix login bug" --intended-files src/auth.js tests/auth.test.js

High-risk planning

/ag:plan Refactor database layer --risk-level high
# Runs: npx agent-guardrails plan --task "Refactor database layer"
# Marks as high-risk, requires explicit confirmation

Boundaries

Will:

  • Create task contract with clear scope
  • Assess confidence before planning
  • Show plan for user confirmation

Will Not:

  • Start implementation without user approval
  • Override user-specified constraints
  • Proceed with low-confidence plans without alternatives
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.

plan is a command published in the GitHub repository logi-cmd/agent-guardrails (29 stars, last pushed 17d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 11 tokens to every session and 494 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
