plan-draft

A workflow for writing a detailed plan for one software component and a matching document describing how to test it. It uses the project's architecture plan, plan index, dependencies, and referenced requirements as context.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to specify modules, interfaces, data types, algorithms, protocols, connections to other components, and the tests that will verify the component.
Why use it?
It turns high-level architecture into concrete implementation guidance 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

plan-draft 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 66 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Plan Draft

Write a plan doc and its companion test harness doc for a single component.

Inputs

  • $0: Doc identifier (e.g., 04d-oltp-sql-engine)
  • $1 (optional): Scope description — what the plan should cover
  • Plans directory: docs/plans/ (or the project's established plans directory)

Phase 1: Read Context

  1. Read docs/plans/00-plan-index.md to understand dependencies and scope
  2. Read docs/plans/00-architecture.md for architectural context
  3. Read all prerequisite/dependency docs listed in the plan index for this component
  4. Read any shaping docs or API contracts referenced

Phase 2: Write Plan Doc

Write docs/plans/$0.md following project conventions:

  • Architecture summary with mermaid diagrams (component, sequence, state where relevant)
  • Package/module structure and import flow
  • API/interface definitions (fully specified, not hand-waved)
  • Major types, structs, components with properties and key methods
  • Detailed design for all non-trivial algorithms and protocols
  • Connected Components — list which other components this plan connects to (its seams), with the interface at each boundary (function signatures, wire protocols, shared types, message formats)
  • Acceptance Criteria — 3-8 end-user-facing scenarios that prove the component works in the real system, not just in isolation. Each scenario must cross at least one component boundary. Format: scenario name, steps using the end-user interface (CLI, API, web UI, mobile — whatever the product exposes), expected outcome. These are NOT internal API tests; they verify behavior as a user would experience it.
  • Testing section (unit, component, integration strategy). For every test category, specify: (1) where test files will live (exact package/directory paths), (2) which make target or test suite they roll up into, (3) whether they run in CI PR checks, nightly, or on-demand. Tests without a home and a runner don't get run.
  • URP (Unreasonably Robust Programming) section — concrete commitments, not wishlists. Each item must specify exactly what will be built, where it fits in the implementation, and how it will be tested. If it's not concrete enough to implement directly from the plan, cut it or make it concrete.
  • Extreme Optimization section — same standard: commit to specific techniques with design details, or cut them.
  • Alien Artifacts section — same standard: commit to specific techniques with design details, or cut them.

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-draft is a skill published in the GitHub repository dcosson/h2 (159 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 31 tokens to every session and 839 once invoked, about $0.0002 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.
