plan-management

A set of rules for creating, reading, and updating a development plan stored in `.devloop/plan.md`. The plan records phases, tasks, acceptance criteria, branches, pull requests, review feedback, and progress.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to maintain feature plans, mark tasks complete or blocked, record progress, and add follow-up work from pull-request reviews.
Why use it?
It keeps planned work and its progress in one consistent format. This makes tasks easier to track and lets other development tools understand the plan's state.

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

plan-management 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.

Model Hint Markers

Annotate tasks with model selection for optimized execution:

Marker When to Use Examples
[model:haiku] Simple, mechanical, low-reasoning Writing tests from patterns, docs, formatting, linting, config changes, file renames
[model:sonnet] Complex reasoning, multi-file coordination Architecture, debugging, multi-file refactoring, security analysis, performance
(no annotation) Orchestrator does inline Single-line edits, running a command, status checks

Place at the end of the task line:

- [ ] Task 1.1: Write unit tests for UserService [model:haiku]
- [ ] Task 1.2: Refactor authentication middleware [model:sonnet]
- [ ] Task 1.3: Update version in package.json

Parallelism Markers

  • [parallel:A] - Can run concurrently with other Group A tasks
  • [parallel:B] - Can run concurrently with other Group B tasks (etc.)
  • [depends:N.M] - Must wait for Task N.M to complete first

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.
