draft-plan

draft-plan is a skill for Cursor from hlalljie/agent-workflow-presets. It costs 31 tokens per session (814 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A planning instruction set for creating or updating a written project plan. It is used only when someone explicitly asks for a plan and does not write code or create tasks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to document project phases, research, open questions, decisions, and later task lists in the expected project folders.
Why use it?
It keeps planning separate from implementation, so a request for a plan does not unexpectedly start coding work.

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

draft-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 5d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 82 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Draft plan

When to use

Only when the user explicitly asks to create a plan or invokes this skill. Do not auto-launch into planning. If you think something needs a plan but the user hasn't asked, you can suggest "Would you like to create a plan for this?" but only for large multi-phase efforts.

What a plan produces

A plan file, and potentially open questions and research docs. Never code, never create tasks. Task lists are a separate skill (create task list) invoked later when the user is ready to work on a phase.

File locations (always use these):

  • Plan: .cursor/plans/<plan-name>/plan.md
  • Research docs: .cursor/plans/<plan-name>/research/<topic>.md
  • Open questions: .cursor/plans/<plan-name>/open-questions.md
  • Decisions: .cursor/plans/<plan-name>/decisions.md
  • Phase task lists: .cursor/plans/<plan-name>/<phase>/tasks/tasks.md

Process

  1. Read relevant context: codebase, conversation history, existing research, existing open questions.
  2. If the codebase can answer a question, explore it instead of asking the user.
  3. Ask questions to resolve unknowns — one or two at a time, not a wall of questions. Work through the decision tree branch by branch. For each question, provide your recommended answer.
  4. Create open questions for anything that needs research or will block work later.
  5. For questions that need research, spawn a subagent using [MODEL:researcher] following research skill.
  6. Write the plan only after enough questions are answered to define phases.
  7. Present to user for review.

Plan format

Each phase is self-contained. A reader looking at one phase should find everything relevant to that phase without scrolling elsewhere. Research, open questions, and details are linked or listed under the phase they belong to, not in separate sections at the bottom.

# Plan: <name>

## Overview
2-3 sentences on what and why.

## Phase 1: <name>

Short description of what this phase delivers.

- Detail or decision relevant to this phase
- Detail with link to [research](research/some-doc.md) if needed
- Blocked by open question 3

## Phase 2: <name>

Short description.

- Detail
- Detail

## Backlog

Phases that are known but not ready to be worked on yet. Same format as active phases but may have less detail.

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.
