+## Plan-first turns
+
+A browser-owned turn is planned before it runs, exactly like a turn in the
+terminal: the planner agent writes the ordered steps, then each step is executed
+one at a time. The plan is written into the transcript as an assistant message,
+so it shows up in the conversation with everything else, and it is saved with the
+session (`plan` in the session file) so a resumed transcript still knows its
+steps.
+
+The plan travels in every live snapshot as a structured field — no text parsing
+needed by a client:
+
+```json
+"plan": {
+  "goal": "build and animate the scene",
+  "steps": [
+    { "title": "Model the case from box.png", "detail": "match the reference", "status": "done" },
+    { "title": "Model the monitor from vision.jpg", "status": "active" },
+    { "title": "Animate the camera", "status": "pending" }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+`status` is `pending`, `active`, `done` or `failed`; `stopped: true` marks a plan
+whose turn was paused before the last step. The terminal draws this in its `ⓘ`
+card; a browser client can render the same timeline from the snapshot. The page
+itself currently shows the plan as the message it already is.
+
+Planning is the default for both loops. It can be turned off with
+`"plan_first": false` in `~/.neutrino/config.json` or `NEUTRINO_PLAN=off`; a
+request that produces no usable plan then runs in one pass.
