goal-planner

A planning aid for defining the goal, boundaries, restrictions, and completion checks of a substantial frontend task. Frontend means the part of an app that users see and interact with.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare plans for multi-file features, new frontend screens, architecture work, new projects, or requests that are too unclear to implement safely.
Why use it?
It reduces guesswork before work spans several files or involves a new screen, flow, or broad redesign. It also creates a short record of what “done” means.

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

goal-planner 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.

Goal Planner

Purpose

Create a clear goal contract for standard or deep frontend work before implementation begins.

This skill exists to prevent ambiguous or large requests from turning into unfocused coding. It defines what the user wants, what is in scope, what is out of scope, which constraints apply, and what observable conditions mean the task is done.

When To Use

Use this skill only after AGENTS.md and common/prompt-intent-routing-rules.md classify the task as Standard Workflow or Deep Workflow.

Use this skill when:

  • the user asks for a multi-file feature;
  • the user asks for a new screen, flow, or frontend capability;
  • the user asks for architecture, greenfield project creation, or broad redesign;
  • the request is ambiguous enough that implementation would require guessing the goal;
  • the task needs a compact goal before execution planning;
  • the task needs a durable goal contract because work may span multiple slices.

When Not To Use

Do not use this skill for Lightweight Workflow prompts, including:

  • one small bug;
  • one obvious typo;
  • one obvious type error;
  • one small styling adjustment;
  • one isolated component change;
  • one direct file-scope edit;
  • one local refactor with clear boundaries.

Do not use this skill to implement code, install tools, scaffold projects, rewrite architecture, or perform visual QA.

If a lightweight task reveals hidden scope, escalate first using common/prompt-intent-routing-rules.md, then use this skill only if the escalated task is standard or deep.

Required Context

  1. Read AGENTS.md.
  2. Read common/prompt-intent-routing-rules.md when task scale is not obvious.
  3. Read common/goal-contract.md.
  4. Confirm the workflow level is Standard Workflow or Deep Workflow.
  5. Read only project overlays that are needed to understand the goal boundary, such as project/stack-profile.md, project/architecture-map.md, or project/design-reference-profile.md.
  6. Read affected source files only when the goal cannot be stated without them.

Changes

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.

goal-planner is a skill published in the GitHub repository ytvee-dev/webdev-agent-kit (5 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 40 tokens to every session and 1,882 once invoked, about $0.0002 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.
