orchestrate:plan

A planning workflow for turning a repository review into a staged list of improvements. A repository is the project's code and related files.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review a scan report, discuss priorities, choose improvement phases, break work into tasks, and write a plan for separate pull requests.
Why use it?
It helps decide which improvements matter, how to group them, and what order to tackle them in before code changes begin.

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

orchestrate: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 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.

Follow this diagram as the workflow.

Orchestrate: Plan

Take the scan report and turn it into a concrete phased enhancement plan. This is Phase 1 — interactive brainstorming with the developer, no PRs.

When to Use

  • After orchestrate:scan has produced a scan report
  • Before starting any PR-producing phase

Prerequisites

Scan report must exist:

cat /tmp/rossoctl/orchestrate/<target>/scan-report.md

Planning Process

1. Read the scan report

Review the Gap Summary and Recommended Phases sections.

2. Present findings to developer

Summarize the key gaps in plain language. Use AskUserQuestion to confirm understanding and gather context about the repo's priorities.

3. Brainstorm which phases apply

Not all repos need all phases. Use AskUserQuestion to decide:

Gap Found Phase Default
No pre-commit config orchestrate:precommit Always (foundation)
No/incomplete CI workflows or security scanning orchestrate:ci Yes if missing
No/few tests (<5 test files) orchestrate:tests Yes if low coverage
No CODEOWNERS/SECURITY.md/LICENSE orchestrate:security Recommended
No .claude/skills/ directory orchestrate:replicate Always (last phase)

4. Determine phase order

Default order: precommit → tests → ci → security → replicate

Tests come before CI (so CI can run them) and before security (so code refactoring for security fixes has test coverage as a safety net). Pre-commit is always first (it validates subsequent PRs). Replicate is always last.

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.

orchestrate:plan is a skill published in the GitHub repository rossoctl/examples (11 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 26 tokens to every session and 1,138 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.

Use when the repo holds real source code but no specs: the existing-codebase branch of setting-up-a-project, normally reached via that dispatcher, directly only when the situation is unmistakable.

Use when the workspace is empty — no code yet — and the user brings a raw idea: the brand-new branch of setting-up-a-project, normally reached via that dispatcher, directly only when the situation is unmistakable. Not for features in an existing project — use brainstorming instead.

This chat has a shared, live TODO plan — your tasks for the conversation, which the user also edits. Read this skill and reach for the todo tools whenever a request takes more than a couple of steps. It covers the plan model (group = task, items = its steps; loose items are the user's lane), how to work it: propose…

brainstorming

Use this BEFORE any creative or feature work: building a new feature, adding functionality, changing behavior, or making a nontrivial design decision. Turns the user's request into a validated design — recorded as a spec-graph task-spec — before any implementation. Do not skip this because a change looks small.
