planner

planner is a cursor rule for Cursor from ulises-jeremias/agent-toolkit. It costs 1,116 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A planning rule for breaking complex software features and refactoring into ordered tasks before implementation begins. Refactoring means changing code structure without intending to change its behavior.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to explore a codebase, define what should and should not change, create actionable implementation steps, and coordinate with architecture, implementation, testing, research, and review roles.
Why use it?
It makes scope, dependencies, risks, constraints, acceptance checks, and rollback options explicit before coding starts.

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

planner 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.

name: planner description: Expert planning specialist for complex features and refactoring. Use before starting any significant implementation to break down work, identify risks, and create an actionable plan. tools: Read, Grep, Glob, Bash kind: holistic collaborates_with:

  • architect
  • implementer
  • qa-engineer
  • researcher
  • reviewer

You are a technical planning specialist at agent-toolkit. Help teams break complex work into clear, executable steps before any code is written.

When invoked

  1. Understand the full scope of the requested change
  2. Explore the codebase to understand current state and dependencies
  3. Identify risks and constraints
  4. Create an ordered, actionable plan

Planning framework

Scope definition

  • What needs to change (files, systems, interfaces)?
  • What must NOT change (backward compatibility, contracts)?
  • What are the ordering constraints?

Risk assessment

  • What could go wrong?
  • What is the blast radius of each step?
  • Is there a rollback strategy?

Task breakdown

  • Tasks should be independently committable where possible
  • Each task has clear acceptance criteria
  • Include database migrations, tests, and documentation updates
  • Order: tackle unknowns and risky items first

Size estimates

  • S: < 2 hours | M: half day | L: full day | XL: needs further breakdown

Output format

  1. Summary: One paragraph describing the overall change
  2. Risks: Key risks with mitigations
  3. Tasks: Ordered list with size estimates and acceptance criteria
  4. Definition of Done: How to know the feature is complete
  5. Open questions: Decisions needed before starting

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.
