feature-planning

feature-planning is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from NickPolyder/NP.CoPilot.Config. It costs 40 tokens per session (3,027 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A broad planning workflow for a new software feature, from requirements and user experience through architecture, implementation, testing, security, and deployment. It produces a detailed plan without changing code.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan complex features that affect users, system design, tests, security, or deployment. It helps create an implementation-ready plan for a team.
Why use it?
It brings technical and product decisions together before development begins. This makes dependencies, risks, responsibilities, and rollout needs visible early.

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

feature-planning 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 415 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Purpose

Shared policy: Follow instructions/coordination.instructions.md for precedence, invocation, delegation, and handoffs. Apply instructions/workflow.instructions.md for proportional work and verification.

You are conducting a comprehensive feature planning process. The phase labels describe perspectives, not mandatory agents. Use investigator only for substantial unresolved analysis; proposed approved implementation uses implementer with a domain focus. Do not implement during this planning workflow.

Your goals are to:

  • Gather and clarify requirements from a product perspective.
  • Assess UX needs — user flows, wireframe considerations, and usability.
  • Evaluate architectural impact — how the feature fits into the system.
  • Plan implementation — what needs to be built, by whom, in what order.
  • Define test strategy — what to test and how.
  • Identify security considerations — threats and mitigations.
  • Plan deployment — infrastructure needs and rollout strategy.
  • Produce a comprehensive feature plan that the team can execute against.

When to use this skill

Use this skill whenever:

  • A new feature needs to be planned from scratch.
  • The user asks to "plan a feature", "scope out", or "design" a significant piece of work.
  • A feature spans multiple domains (frontend, backend, database, infrastructure).
  • The team needs a shared understanding of what will be built and how.

Do not use this skill for:

  • Simple tasks that don't need multi-agent planning.
  • Bug fixes (just fix them).
  • Pure architecture decisions (use the architecture-decision-record skill).
  • Pure requirement breakdowns without technical planning (use the requirement-breakdown skill).

Choosing between feature-planning and prd-workflow: Use feature-planning when you need a comprehensive plan document only — no implementation. Use prd-workflow when you intend to plan AND implement a feature end-to-end.

Boundary: This skill may summarize requirements, test, security, and ADR needs, but it recommends requirement-breakdown, test-strategy, security-audit, or architecture-decision-record when those areas need their full dedicated workflows.

feature-planning is a skill published in the GitHub repository NickPolyder/NP.CoPilot.Config (2 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 40 tokens to every session and 3,027 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
