author-planning-commands

author-planning-commands is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from radiantlogicinc/fastworkflow. It costs 271 tokens per session (11,225 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide for writing fastworkflow planning commands in Python. These commands turn a multi-step job into a numbered plan whose phases can pass information to later phases.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create parameterized workflow plans, validate their inputs, and connect user requests to the right planning command.
Why use it?
It explains when a normal command is not enough and how to define typed inputs, phases, and command matching consistently.

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

author-planning-commands 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 yesterday.

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

Writing planning commands

A planning command is one Python file, _commands/<name>.py, or _commands/<Context>/<name>.py for a planning command of a context (named <Context>/<name>). It is written like a command file: its Signature describes a job and its Input declares the job's typed arguments, exactly as a command's does. Where a command has a ResponseGenerator, a planning command has a top-level PlanGenerator: each public method is a phase that returns its steps as text.

How a matched planning command runs (workflow_agent.match_planning_command matches it; planning_commands.typed_planning_call fills it):

  1. A planning command is a label of the classifiers whose scope holds it, trained from its plain_utterances, so a request can reach it as it reaches an execution command. With JEV_API_KEY the matcher picks the planning command for a sub-task from its description and plain_utterances first. Without the key the planner finds the command in its list, and no typed call fills its inputs.
  2. The planner fills Input in one typed call.
  3. The arguments are checked: check_arguments checks each field against its type and its options (copied_from_command_text here), and the file's own rules run.
  4. A refused call is filled once more with the refusal in view. A second refusal is asked of the user as a question when the turn may ask; otherwise the text planner takes over.
  5. The call's phases run, and the steps they return become the agent's plan. Code runs the steps it can (see the step grammar below).

There is no separate planning step in front of a matched call and no fast path around it.

The one-page guide is docs/planning_command_file_layout.md in the fastWorkflow repository (not in the wheel), with the preview; docs/planning_command_phases.md covers phases, facts, code-run steps and answers. The module documentation of fastworkflow.planning (the form), fastworkflow.planning_commands and fastworkflow.planning_phases (the runtime) ships with the package and is the source of truth.

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.
