- What to try:
48
- 1. Run /pbr:plan 3 to create a plan first
49
- 2. Check if the phase directory exists: ls .planning/phases/03-*
50
- 3. Run /pbr:health to check planning directory integrity

79
- This format is used by validate-commit.js and check-dangerous-commands.js. The `decision: "block"` and `reason` fields in the JSON output follow this pattern.
80
-
81
- Block reasons should always include a "To fix:" line with actionable guidance so the user or agent knows how to resolve the block.

- # State Loading Pattern
3
-
4
- Standard pattern for loading project state at the start of a skill invocation. Include this fragment in skills that need project context.
5
-
6
- ---
7
-
8
- ## Minimal State Read (for simple skills)
9
-
10
- Use when the skill only needs to know the current position. Skills: status, help, note, todo, pause, config.
11
- STATE.md is lean — it contains only current-phase context. Historical data lives in HISTORY.md.
12
-
13
- ```
14
- 1. Read .planning/STATE.md lines 1-20 only
15
- 2. Extract: current phase, plan, status
16
- 3. If STATE.md missing: inform user, suggest /pbr:begin
17
- ```
18
-
19
- ## Full State Read (for workflow skills)
20
-
21
- Use when the skill needs complete project context. Skills: build, plan, review, begin, milestone, continue, resume, debug.
22
-
23
- Reading order (always this sequence):
24
-
25
- ```
26
- 1. Read .planning/STATE.md
27
- - Extract: Current Position section (phase, plan, status)
28
- - Extract: Blockers/Concerns section (if not "None")
29
- - Extract: Session Continuity section (if present)
30
-
31
- 2. Read .planning/config.json
32
- - Extract: depth, mode, features flags
33
- - Extract: models configuration
34
- - Extract: gates configuration
35
-
36
- 3. Read .planning/ROADMAP.md (if exists)
37
- - Extract: Phase Overview table (current + next 2 phases)
38
- - Extract: dependency chain for current phase
39
- - Do NOT read full phase details for past phases
40
-
41
- 4. Read .planning/HISTORY.md (ONLY when cross-phase context is needed)
42
- - Do NOT read HISTORY.md for normal build/plan/review operations
43
- - Read ONLY when: debugging a regression that may trace to a prior phase,
44
- or when a milestone audit needs historical context
45
- - Use: `node ${PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/pbr-tools.js history load`
46
- - This returns structured JSON -- do not read the raw file
47
- ```

7
-
8
- ## Overview
9
-
10
- Plan-Build-Run's configuration lives at `.planning/config.json` in the project root. It is created by `/pbr:begin` and can be modified via `/pbr:config` or by editing the file directly. The config controls workflow behavior, model selection, parallelization, git integration, and confirmation gates.
11
-
12
- ---
13
-
14
- ## Schema Version
15
-
16
- ```json
17
- { "version": 2 }
18
- ```
19
-
20
- The `version` field tracks schema migrations. Current version is `2`. When loading a config with an older version, Plan-Build-Run runs automatic migration (e.g., v1 to v2 adds missing fields with defaults, renames `model_profile` to per-agent `models` object).

- ### context_strategy
44
-
45
- Controls how aggressively Plan-Build-Run manages context budget:
46
-
47

- | `context_isolation` | `true` | Isolate work into subagents to protect main context |
65
- | `atomic_commits` | `true` | Require one commit per task (vs. batched commits) |
66
- | `session_persistence` | `true` | Persist state across sessions via STATE.md |
67
- | `research_phase` | `true` | Run research before planning |
68
- | `plan_checking` | `true` | Run plan-checker agent before execution |
69
- | `tdd_mode` | `false` | Enable Test-Driven Development for all tasks (Red-Green-Refactor) |
70
- | `status_line` | `true` | Show status line in session UI |
71
- | `auto_continue` | `false` | Write `.auto-next` signal on phase completion for automatic continuation |
72
- | `auto_advance` | `false` | Chain build→review→plan automatically in autonomous mode (requires `mode: autonomous`) |
73
- | `team_discussions` | `false` | Enable team-based discussion workflows (never used for execution) |
74
- | `inline_verify` | `false` | Run per-task verification after each executor commit (opt-in, adds latency) |
75
-
76
- ### Notable interactions
77
-
78
- - `goal_verification: false` skips the post-build verification step. The build skill appends a note suggesting `/pbr:review` manually.
79
- - `tdd_mode: true` causes all task types to follow Red-Green-Refactor, producing 3 commits per task instead of 1.
80
- - `auto_continue: true` writes a `.planning/.auto-next` file containing the next command (e.g., `/pbr:plan 4`), allowing wrapper scripts to chain phases.
81
- - `auto_advance: true` + `mode: autonomous` enables full phase cycling: build completes → auto-invoke review → if verification passes → auto-invoke plan for next phase. Hard stops at: checkpoints, verification gaps, errors, milestone boundaries.
82
- - `inline_verify: true` spawns a haiku-model verifier after each plan completes within a wave. Adds ~10-20s latency per plan but catches issues before dependent plans run.
83

85

86
- ## models
87
-
88
- Per-agent model selection. See `references/model-profiles.md` for full details.
89
-
90
- ```json
91
- {
92
- "models": {
93
- "researcher": "sonnet",

109
- ## parallelization
110
-
111
- Controls whether and how plans execute concurrently.
112
-
113
- | Field | Type | Default | Description |
114
- |-------|------|---------|-------------|
115
- | `enabled` | boolean | `true` | Enable parallel plan execution within a wave |
116
- | `plan_level` | boolean | `true` | Parallelize at plan level (multiple plans in same wave) |
117
- | `task_level` | boolean | `false` | Parallelize at task level within a plan (not currently used) |
118
- | `max_concurrent_agents` | number | `3` | Maximum simultaneous executor subagents |
119
- | `min_plans_for_parallel` | number | `2` | Minimum plans in a wave to trigger parallel execution |
120
- | `use_teams` | boolean | `false` | Use Agent Teams for coordination (discussion only, never execution) |
121
-
122
- ### Behavior
123
-
124
- When `enabled: true` and a wave has >= `min_plans_for_parallel` plans, the build orchestrator spawns up to `max_concurrent_agents` executor Task() calls in parallel using `run_in_background: true`.
125
-
126
- When `enabled: false` or a wave has only 1 plan, executors run sequentially.
127
-
128
- Git lock conflicts can occur with parallel execution. Executors handle this with retry logic (wait 2s, max 3 attempts). If conflicts persist, reduce `max_concurrent_agents` to 1.
129
-
130

131
-
132
- ## planning
133
-
134
- Controls planning behavior and documentation.
135
-
136
- | Field | Type | Default | Description |
137
- |-------|------|---------|-------------|
138
- | `commit_docs` | boolean | `true` | Commit planning docs (SUMMARY, VERIFICATION) after builds |
139
- | `max_tasks_per_plan` | number | `3` | Maximum tasks per plan (keeps plans focused and atomic) |
140
- | `search_gitignored` | boolean | `false` | Include gitignored files in codebase scanning |
141
-
142
- ### commit_docs
143
-
144
- When `true`, after all plans in a phase complete, the build orchestrator stages and commits planning artifacts:
145
- ```
146
- docs({phase}): add build summaries and verification
147
- ```
148
-
149
- When `false`, planning docs remain unstaged/uncommitted.
150

- ## git
154
-
155
- Controls git integration and branching.

158
- |-------|------|---------|-------------|
159
- | `branching` | string | `"none"` | Branching strategy: `none`, `phase`, `milestone`, `disabled` |
160

166
-
167
- ### mode: disabled
168
-
169
- When `git.mode` is `"disabled"`, no git commands are run at all -- no commits, no branching, no hook validation. Useful for prototyping or non-git projects.
170

172
-
173
- ## gates
174
-
175
- Confirmation gates that pause execution to ask the user before proceeding.
176
-
177
- | Field | Default | When Triggered |
178
- |-------|---------|----------------|
179
- | `confirm_project` | `true` | Before creating a new Plan-Build-Run project (`/pbr:begin`) |
180
- | `confirm_roadmap` | `true` | Before finalizing a roadmap |

192
- Safety controls for destructive or external operations.

195
- |-------|------|---------|-------------|
196
- | `always_confirm_destructive` | boolean | `true` | Always ask before destructive git operations |
197
- | `always_confirm_external_services` | boolean | `true` | Always ask before calling external APIs or services |
198
-
199
- These cannot be disabled via `/pbr:config` -- they require manual editing of `config.json` as a deliberate action.

- ## When to Spawn vs Inline
9
-
10
- | Condition | Action |
11
- |-----------|--------|
12
- | >50 lines of analysis or code generation needed | Spawn a subagent |
13
- | Simple state read or file write | Do it inline |
14
- | Multiple files need reading for a decision | Spawn — protect orchestrator context |
15
- | User interaction needed (questions, confirmations) | Do it inline |
16
- | Work needs a fresh context window | Spawn |
17
-
18
- ---
19
-
20
- ## Spawning Pattern
21
-
22
- Always use the modern subagent_type syntax. Agent definitions are auto-loaded by Claude Code — never inline them.
23
-
24
- ```
25
- Task({
26
- subagent_type: "pbr:{agent-name}",
27
- prompt: <structured prompt with context>
28
- })
29
- ```
30
-
31
- ### Structured Input Format
32
-
33
- Provide context to subagents using tagged blocks:
34
-
35
- ```xml
36
- <phase_context>
37
- Phase: {NN}-{slug}
38
- Goal: {goal from ROADMAP.md}
39
- </phase_context>
40
-
41
- <prior_work>
42
- {Frontmatter from relevant SUMMARY.md files}
43
- </prior_work>
44
-
45
- <instructions>
46
- {Specific instructions for this agent invocation}
47
- </instructions>
48
- ```
49
-
50
- ### What NOT to Include in Spawn Prompts
51
-
52
- - Full agent definition text (auto-loaded via subagent_type)
53
- - Full SUMMARY.md bodies (agent reads from disk)
54
- - Full PLAN.md bodies unless the agent needs them (executor does, verifier doesn't)
55
- - Content from unrelated phases
56
-
57
- ---
58
-
59
- ## Reading Output
60
-
61
- After a subagent completes, read its output file — but only what you need.
62
-
63
- | Output Type | Orchestrator Reads | Agent Reads Full |
64
- |-------------|-------------------|-----------------|
65
- | SUMMARY.md | Frontmatter only (status, key_files, commits) | Yes, from disk |
66
- | VERIFICATION.md | Frontmatter only (status, must_haves_passed/failed) | Yes, from disk |
67
- | PLAN.md | Frontmatter only (wave, depends_on, files_modified) | Yes, from disk |
68
- | RESEARCH.md | Frontmatter + recommendations section | Yes, from disk |
69
- | Debug files | Latest hypothesis + result only | Yes, from disk |
70
-
71
- ### Frontmatter-Only Read Pattern
72
-
73
- ```
74
- Read the file, extract YAML frontmatter between --- markers.
75
- Parse: status, key_files, commits, provides.
76
- Do NOT read past the closing --- of frontmatter.
77
- ```
78
-
79
- ---
80
-
81
- ## State Update After Agent Completion
82
-
83
- After reading agent output, update STATE.md with minimal information:
84
- 1. Update phase/plan status
85
- 2. Record completion timestamp
86
- 3. Note any blockers or warnings from frontmatter
87
- 4. Do NOT copy agent output into STATE.md
88
-
89
- ---
90
-
91
- ## Error Handling
92
-
93
- | Scenario | Action |
94
- |----------|--------|
95
- | Agent times out | Report to user, suggest retry |
96
- | Agent produces no output file | Report failure, check for partial work |
97
- | Output file has `status: failed` | Read failure details, present to user |
98
- | Agent reports warnings | Continue but show warnings in completion summary |
99
-
100
- ### Retryable vs Fatal
101
-
102
- - **Retryable**: Timeout, transient file errors, partial completion
103
- - **Fatal**: Missing plan files, invalid state, circular dependencies
104
- - **User decision**: Verification failures, ambiguous requirements
105
-
106

107
-
108
- ## Context Budget Impact
109
-
110
- Each subagent coordination step has a token cost in the orchestrator:
111
-
112
- | Step | Approximate Cost |
113
- |------|-----------------|
114
- | Reading state before spawn | 200-500 tokens |
115
- | Constructing spawn prompt | 500-1000 tokens |
116
- | Reading output frontmatter | 100-300 tokens |
117
- | Updating STATE.md | 200-400 tokens |
118
- | **Total per agent cycle** | **1,000-2,200 tokens** |
119
-
120
- Compare to inlining the same work: 5,000-20,000 tokens. Delegation saves 3-10x.
