Description
Structured plan-writing skill adapted from obra/superpowers. Produces actionable plans that map directly to cortex workflows and tasks.

/collaboration:writing-plans

Transforms brainstorm output into a concrete execution plan that cortex can enforce.

Inputs

  • Brainstorm summary (see /ctx:brainstorm).
  • Relevant workflows in workflows/ and rules in rules/Planning.md.
  • Any mandated modes (e.g., modes/Super_Saiyan.md, modes/Security_Audit.md).

Steps

  1. Restate Objective
    • One paragraph referencing ticket/issue + constraints.
  2. Identify Workstreams
    • Break work into 2–5 streams (frontend, backend, docs, infra, etc.).
    • For each, list required agents/modes/rules.
  3. Define Tasks per Stream
    • Bullet tasks with Definition of Done + validation (tests, lint, visual review).
    • Include verification hooks (rules/, commands/testing.yaml).
  4. Risk / Mitigation
    • Capture open questions, dependencies, rollback steps.
  5. Task Sync
    • For each bullet, create a Task TUI entry (press TA).
    • OR run /ctx:execute-plan after this skill to auto-seed tasks (coming soon).

Output template

## Objective

## Workstreams
### Stream 1 – <name>
- Task … (agent/mode/rule, validation)

### Stream 2 – …

Store the plan in chat + docs/plans/<date>-<slug>.md if long-lived. Then move to /ctx:execute-plan.
