app-plan

A command for turning a project's backlog and implementation specifications into a board for the next sprint. A sprint is a short, planned period of development work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan work for the platforms covered by the available specifications, prepare parallelizable tickets, and identify whether a new or existing project needs initialization or onboarding.
Why use it?
Planning fails when required project specifications are missing or when tickets are added without preserving the board's event history. It checks the expected files and builds the board from recorded events.

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

app-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 yesterday.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 113 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/app-plan — Plan the next sprint

Focus (optional): $ARGUMENTS

Steps

  1. Confirm prerequisites exist: docs/11-backlog.md and at least one docs/22-impl-spec-*.md. Plan against whatever platforms have a spec.

    Requiring both an iOS and an Android spec fails every single-platform project — requirements-intake asks "iOS, Android, or both" — and every brownfield project, whose specs arrive as /app-onboard's per-platform docs/22-impl-spec-<platform>.md snapshots. Both were then told to run /app-init, which greenfield had just run and which /app-onboard explicitly tells brownfield users not to run.

    If the backlog or every spec is missing, stop and name the missing file, then suggest /app-init for an empty directory or /app-onboard for a directory that already has code. Never suggest /app-init on a project that has an app in it.

1a. Adopt the event log before adding anything to it. The board is now generated from docs/31-board-events.jsonl; docs/31-board.md is its rendering. A project planned before this existed has the board and not the log, and board.mjs add on that project would create a one-ticket log and render over the hand-written board. So migrate first, once, and say so:

if [ ! -f docs/31-board-events.jsonl ] && [ -f docs/31-board.md ]; then
  node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/board.mjs" migrate docs/31-board.md --out docs/31-board-events.jsonl \
    && node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/board.mjs" render \
    && echo "MIGRATED: hand-written board -> event log"
fi

Print what it reported: how many events it reconstructed, how many are inferred (ts: null, because the hand-written board never recorded them), and every note: line — a Cycles column disagreeing with the ledger is named there, and the migration takes the ledger.

If migrate exits non-zero, do not stop and do not retry it. A board too old to parse (no Reviewer/Cycles columns, no ledger) has nothing to reconstruct from. Say LEGACY BOARD: no event log — running the hand-written path and continue; board-doctor is the backstop for that project exactly as it was before. Neither is an error state: a project with no board at all is the normal greenfield case, and step 2 creates its log from nothing.

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.

app-plan is a command published in the GitHub repository vmobifystudio/app-dev-team (4 stars, last pushed 22d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 17 tokens to every session and 1,623 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 2026-08-31.
