qstack-plan-to-html

A process for turning a Markdown software plan into a numbered HTML document for review, with open questions resolved and work divided into execution-board cards. HLD and LLD mean high-level and low-level design.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create a reviewable QStack plan from Markdown or a team discussion, or to add an execution board to an existing HTML plan.
Why use it?
It gives reviewers a shared document whose sections can be cited precisely and whose status shows what is settled or still open.

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

qstack-plan-to-html 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 4 executable files (template/serve.sh, template/v1/board.js, template/v1/plan.js, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 608 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/qstack-plan-to-html

Takes a plan, from a Markdown draft or from the conversation that worked it out, and produces a controlled document: numbered, citable, offline-safe, and readable by two audiences at once.

A plan is not a landing page. It opens with a title block, every clause is numbered so a reviewer can say "§4.2 is wrong", and every section carries a status stamp so a reader knows what is settled before reading a word.

Language: plain words, always

Write it the way you would say it out loud. Jargon is not precision; most of the time it is precision's opposite, because it lets a vague sentence pass as an informed one. If a sentence would survive being read aloud to a smart person outside the team, keep it. If it would not, rewrite it.

Cut these on sight: they carry no information:

leverage · utilize · synergy · holistic · robust · seamless · paradigm · best-in-class · surface area (as a metaphor) · first-class citizen · orthogonal · non-trivial · trivially · simply · just · obviously

Instead of Write
"leverage the existing abstraction" "use the code that is already there"
"a non-trivial refactor" "about three days of work across four files"
"the system exhibits sub-optimal latency characteristics" "it takes 40 seconds; it should take 2"
"we surface this to the operator" "the operator sees it"
"simply add a policy rule" "add a policy rule": if it were simple you would not be writing a plan

Precise is not the same as jargon. A term of art that names a real thing in A term already used in the codebase, such as first-match, hot reload, or run-to-completion, stays because replacing it with a vague paraphrase loses information an implementer needs. The rule is: use the exact word, then explain it once in an ELI10 box the first time it appears.

Numbers beat adjectives. "Fast" is an opinion; "16 ms" is a fact. Wherever the source markdown has a measurement, use the measurement.

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.

qstack-plan-to-html is a skill published in the GitHub repository hani-q/qstack (7 stars, last pushed 5d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 68 tokens to every session and 7,124 once invoked, about $0.0003 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.
