Plan With Team

Create an implementation plan with builder/validator agent teams.

  • /plan-with-team (this skill) — Multi-expert planning for complex features, refactors, system components.
  • /build-plan — Execute the plan produced here. Run AFTER plan is approved.
  • /hop-build <task_id> — For a SINGLE task (not a multi-task plan).
  • /build — Toggle session into Build Mode.
  • /prime-build — Load lightweight build context into session.

Instructions

You are creating a detailed implementation plan that assigns work to specialized agent teams.

Step 1: Research (MANDATORY)MANDATORY — with Context Isolation)

Before planning, research:delegate research to specialist agents using ISOLATION PATTERN:

  1. If building a company/org: FindDispatch proxima with isolation preamble:

    • "Research 2-3 existing examples, analyzewrite theirFULL structureanalysis to /tmp/{task_id}-research-deliverables.md"
    • "Return ONLY: summary + deliverable path + memory_candidates"

  2. If building software: Dispatch petter-graff/martin-kleppmann with isolation:

    • "Explore thecodebase codebase,patterns, understandwrite existingFULL patternsarchitecture analysis to deliverable"
    • "Return structured summary only"

  3. If building process: FindDispatch sentinel-ba with isolation:

    • "Research industry standardsstandards, andwrite bestFULL practicesreport to deliverable"

UseLoad Glob,isolation Grep,template: Read,~/system/prompts/SUBAGENT_ISOLATION.md

WebSearch

Collect assummaries, needed.Read Documentdeliverables findings.ONLY for critical details needed in plan.

Step 2: Analyze

Based on research:

  • What patterns should we copy?
  • What should we adapt for our needs?
  • What are the key components?

Step 3: Define Team

For each major task, assign:

  • Builder — Creates/implements
  • Validator — Verifies the work

Reference agents from ~/.claude/agents/:

  • builder.md — Implementation agent
  • validator.md — Verification agent (read-only)

Step 4: Create Plan

Write plan to ~/system/specs/<name>-plan.md with this structure:

# Plan: [Name]

## Research Summary
[What we learned from existing examples]

## Objective
[1-2 sentences]

## Team Orchestration

### Team Members
| ID | Name | Role | Agent Type |
|----|------|------|------------|
| B1 | [name]-builder | Build [what] | builder |
| V1 | [name]-validator | Validate [what] | validator |

### Step-by-Step Tasks

#### Phase 1: [Name]
**Task 1:** [Description]
- Owner: B1
- BlockedBy: none
- Acceptance:
  - [ ] Criterion 1
  - [ ] Criterion 2

**Task 2:** Validate [above]
- Owner: V1
- BlockedBy: 1
- Acceptance: [criteria]

## Validation Commands
[How to verify the work]

Step 5: Validate Plan

Self-validate the plan:

  • All tasks have acceptance criteria
  • Dependencies make sense (validators blocked by builders)
  • No circular dependencies

MANDATORY CHECK — plan is INCOMPLETE without both:

  • Validation task exists — owner: Proveo/Angie Jones, end-to-end test with real evidence (not dry-run), BlockedBy all build tasks
  • Documentation task exists — owner: Skillforge, BookStack page for every system built or changed, BlockedBy validation task

If either is missing → add them before presenting to CEO. Do not ask. Just add.

Step 6: Present for Approval

Show the user:

  1. Research summary
  2. Plan overview
  3. Number of tasks and phases
  4. Ask: "Approve plan? Then run /build-plan to execute."

Output

The plan file path: ~/system/specs/<name>-plan.md

Ready for execution with /build-plan.
