+description: Enhance a plan with parallel research agents for each section to add depth, best practices, and implementation details
+argument-hint: "[path to plan file]"
+---
+
+# Deepen Plan - Power Enhancement Mode
+
+## Introduction
+
+**Note: The current year is 2026.** Use this when searching for recent documentation and best practices.
+
+This command takes an existing plan (from `/workflows-plan`) and enhances each section with parallel research agents. Each major element gets its own dedicated research sub-agent to find:
+- Best practices and industry patterns
+- Performance optimizations
+- UI/UX improvements (if applicable)
+- Quality enhancements and edge cases
+- Real-world implementation examples
+
+The result is a deeply grounded, production-ready plan with concrete implementation details.
+
+## Plan File
+
+<plan_path> #$ARGUMENTS </plan_path>
+
+**If the plan path above is empty:**
+1. Check for recent plans: `ls -la docs/plans/`
+2. Ask the user: "Which plan would you like to deepen? Please provide the path (e.g., `docs/plans/2026-01-15-feat-my-feature-plan.md`)."
+
+Do not proceed until you have a valid plan file path.
+
+## Main Tasks
+
+### 1. Parse and Analyze Plan Structure
+
+<thinking>
+First, read and parse the plan to identify each major section that can be enhanced with research.
+</thinking>
+
+**Read the plan file and extract:**
+- [ ] Overview/Problem Statement
+- [ ] Proposed Solution sections
+- [ ] Technical Approach/Architecture
+- [ ] Implementation phases/steps
+- [ ] Code examples and file references
+- [ ] Acceptance criteria
+- [ ] Any UI/UX components mentioned
+- [ ] Technologies/frameworks mentioned (Rails, React, Python, TypeScript, etc.)
+- [ ] Domain areas (data models, APIs, UI, security, performance, etc.)
+
+**Create a section manifest:**
+```
+Section 1: [Title] - [Brief description of what to research]
+Section 2: [Title] - [Brief description of what to research]
+...
+```
+
+### 2. Discover and Apply Available Skills
+
+<thinking>
+Dynamically discover all available skills and match them to plan sections. Don't assume what skills exist - discover them at runtime.
+</thinking>
+
+**Step 1: Discover ALL available skills from ALL sources**
+
+```bash
+# 1. Project-local skills (highest priority - project-specific)
+ls .claude/skills/
+
+# 2. User's global skills (~/.claude/)
+ls ~/.claude/skills/
+
+# 3. compound-engineering plugin skills
+ls ~/.claude/plugins/cache/*/compound-engineering/*/skills/
+
+# 4. ALL other installed plugins - check every plugin for skills
+find ~/.claude/plugins/cache -type d -name "skills" 2>/dev/null
+
+# 5. Also check installed_plugins.json for all plugin locations
+cat ~/.claude/plugins/installed_plugins.json
+```
+
+**Important:** Check EVERY source. Don't assume compound-engineering is the only plugin. Use skills from ANY installed plugin that's relevant.
+
+**Step 2: For each discovered skill, read its SKILL.md to understand what it does**
+
+```bash
+# For each skill directory found, read its documentation
+cat [skill-path]/skill.md
+```
+
+**Step 3: Match skills to plan content**
+
+For each skill discovered:
+- Read its SKILL.md description
+- Check if any plan sections match the skill's domain
+- If there's a match, spawn a sub-agent to apply that skill's knowledge
+
+**Step 4: Spawn a sub-agent for EVERY matched skill**
+
+**CRITICAL: For EACH skill that matches, spawn a separate sub-agent and instruct it to USE that skill.**
+
+For each matched skill:
+```
+Task general-purpose: "You have the [skill-name] skill available at [skill-path].
+
+YOUR JOB: Use this skill on the plan.
+
+1. Read the skill: cat [skill-path]/skill.md
+2. Follow the skill's instructions exactly
+3. Apply the skill to this content:
+
+[relevant plan section or full plan]
+
+4. Return the skill's full output
+
+The skill tells you what to do - follow it. Execute the skill completely."
+```
+
+**Spawn ALL skill sub-agents in PARALLEL:**
+- 1 sub-agent per matched skill
+- Each sub-agent reads and uses its assigned skill
+- All run simultaneously
+- 10, 20, 30 skill sub-agents is fine
+
+**Each sub-agent:**
+1. Reads its skill's SKILL.md
+2. Follows the skill's workflow/instructions
+3. Applies the skill to the plan
+4. Returns whatever the skill produces (code, recommendations, patterns, reviews, etc.)
+
+**Example spawns:**
+```
+Task general-purpose: "Use the dhh-rails-style skill at ~/.claude/plugins/.../dhh-rails-style. Read SKILL.md and apply it to: [Rails sections of plan]"
+
+Task general-purpose: "Use the frontend-design skill at ~/.claude/plugins/.../frontend-design. Read SKILL.md and apply it to: [UI sections of plan]"
+
+Task general-purpose: "Use the agent-native-architecture skill at ~/.claude/plugins/.../agent-native-architecture. Read SKILL.md and apply it to: [agent/tool sections of plan]"
+
+Task general-purpose: "Use the security-patterns skill at ~/.claude/skills/security-patterns. Read SKILL.md and apply it to: [full plan]"
+```
+
+**No limit on skill sub-agents. Spawn one for every skill that could possibly be relevant.**
+
+### 3. Discover and Apply Learnings/Solutions
+
+<thinking>
+Check for documented learnings from /workflows-compound. These are solved problems stored as markdown files. Spawn a sub-agent for each learning to check if it's relevant.
+</thinking>
+
+**LEARNINGS LOCATION - Check these exact folders:**
+
+```
+docs/solutions/           <-- PRIMARY: Project-level learnings (created by /workflows-compound)
+├── performance-issues/
+│   └── *.md
+├── debugging-patterns/
+│   └── *.md
+├── configuration-fixes/
+│   └── *.md
+├── integration-issues/
+│   └── *.md
+├── deployment-issues/
+│   └── *.md
+└── [other-categories]/
+    └── *.md
+```
+
+**Step 1: Find ALL learning markdown files**
+
+Run these commands to get every learning file:
+
+```bash
+# PRIMARY LOCATION - Project learnings
+find docs/solutions -name "*.md" -type f 2>/dev/null
+
+# If docs/solutions doesn't exist, check alternate locations:
+find .claude/docs -name "*.md" -type f 2>/dev/null
+find ~/.claude/docs -name "*.md" -type f 2>/dev/null
+```
+
+**Step 2: Read frontmatter of each learning to filter**
+
+Each learning file has YAML frontmatter with metadata. Read the first ~20 lines of each file to get:
+
+```yaml
+---
+title: "N+1 Query Fix for Briefs"
+category: performance-issues
+tags: [activerecord, n-plus-one, includes, eager-loading]
+module: Briefs
+symptom: "Slow page load, multiple queries in logs"
+root_cause: "Missing includes on association"
+---
+```
+
+**For each .md file, quickly scan its frontmatter:**
+
+```bash
+# Read first 20 lines of each learning (frontmatter + summary)
+head -20 docs/solutions/**/*.md
+```
+
+**Step 3: Filter - only spawn sub-agents for LIKELY relevant learnings**
+
+Compare each learning's frontmatter against the plan:
+- `tags:` - Do any tags match technologies/patterns in the plan?
+- `category:` - Is this category relevant? (e.g., skip deployment-issues if plan is UI-only)
+- `module:` - Does the plan touch this module?
+- `symptom:` / `root_cause:` - Could this problem occur with the plan?
+
+**SKIP learnings that are clearly not applicable:**
+- Plan is frontend-only → skip `database-migrations/` learnings
+- Plan is Python → skip `rails-specific/` learnings
+- Plan has no auth → skip `authentication-issues/` learnings
+
+**SPAWN sub-agents for learnings that MIGHT apply:**
+- Any tag overlap with plan technologies
+- Same category as plan domain
+- Similar patterns or concerns
+
+**Step 4: Spawn sub-agents for filtered learnings**
+
+For each learning that passes the filter:
+
+```
+Task general-purpose: "
+LEARNING FILE: [full path to .md file]
+
+1. Read this learning file completely
+2. This learning documents a previously solved problem
+
+Check if this learning applies to this plan:
+
+---
+[full plan content]
+---
+
+If relevant:
+- Explain specifically how it applies
+- Quote the key insight or solution
+- Suggest where/how to incorporate it
+
+If NOT relevant after deeper analysis:
+- Say 'Not applicable: [reason]'
+"
+```
+
+**Example filtering:**
+```
+# Found 15 learning files, plan is about "Rails API caching"
+
+# SPAWN (likely relevant):
+docs/solutions/performance-issues/n-plus-one-queries.md      # tags: [activerecord] ✓
+docs/solutions/performance-issues/redis-cache-stampede.md    # tags: [caching, redis] ✓
+docs/solutions/configuration-fixes/redis-connection-pool.md  # tags: [redis] ✓
+
+# SKIP (clearly not applicable):
+docs/solutions/deployment-issues/heroku-memory-quota.md      # not about caching
+docs/solutions/frontend-issues/stimulus-race-condition.md    # plan is API, not frontend
+docs/solutions/authentication-issues/jwt-expiry.md           # plan has no auth
+```
+
+**Spawn sub-agents in PARALLEL for all filtered learnings.**
+
+**These learnings are institutional knowledge - applying them prevents repeating past mistakes.**
+
+### 4. Launch Per-Section Research Agents
+
+<thinking>
+For each major section in the plan, spawn dedicated sub-agents to research improvements. Use the Explore agent type for open-ended research.
+</thinking>
+
+**For each identified section, launch parallel research:**
+
+```
+Task Explore: "Research best practices, patterns, and real-world examples for: [section topic].
+Find:
+- Industry standards and conventions
+- Performance considerations
+- Common pitfalls and how to avoid them
+- Documentation and tutorials
+Return concrete, actionable recommendations."
+```
+
+**Also use Context7 MCP for framework documentation:**
+
+For any technologies/frameworks mentioned in the plan, query Context7:
+```
+mcp__plugin_compound-engineering_context7__resolve-library-id: Find library ID for [framework]
+mcp__plugin_compound-engineering_context7__query-docs: Query documentation for specific patterns
+```
+
+**Use WebSearch for current best practices:**
+
+Search for recent (2024-2026) articles, blog posts, and documentation on topics in the plan.
+
+### 5. Discover and Run ALL Review Agents
+
+<thinking>
+Dynamically discover every available agent and run them ALL against the plan. Don't filter, don't skip, don't assume relevance. 40+ parallel agents is fine. Use everything available.
+</thinking>
+
+**Step 1: Discover ALL available agents from ALL sources**
+
+```bash
+# 1. Project-local agents (highest priority - project-specific)
+find .claude/agents -name "*.md" 2>/dev/null
+
+# 2. User's global agents (~/.claude/)
+find ~/.claude/agents -name "*.md" 2>/dev/null
+
+# 3. compound-engineering plugin agents (all subdirectories)
+find ~/.claude/plugins/cache/*/compound-engineering/*/agents -name "*.md" 2>/dev/null
+
+# 4. ALL other installed plugins - check every plugin for agents
+find ~/.claude/plugins/cache -path "*/agents/*.md" 2>/dev/null
+
+# 5. Check installed_plugins.json to find all plugin locations
+cat ~/.claude/plugins/installed_plugins.json
+
+# 6. For local plugins (isLocal: true), check their source directories
+# Parse installed_plugins.json and find local plugin paths
+```
+
+**Important:** Check EVERY source. Include agents from:
+- Project `.claude/agents/`
+- User's `~/.claude/agents/`
+- compound-engineering plugin (but SKIP workflow/ agents - only use review/, research/, design/, docs/)
+- ALL other installed plugins (agent-sdk-dev, frontend-design, etc.)
+- Any local plugins
+
+**For compound-engineering plugin specifically:**
+- USE: `agents/review/*` (all reviewers)
+- USE: `agents/research/*` (all researchers)
+- USE: `agents/design/*` (design agents)
+- USE: `agents/docs/*` (documentation agents)
+- SKIP: `agents/workflow/*` (these are workflow orchestrators, not reviewers)
+
+**Step 2: For each discovered agent, read its description**
+
+Read the first few lines of each agent file to understand what it reviews/analyzes.
+
+**Step 3: Launch ALL agents in parallel**
+
+For EVERY agent discovered, launch a Task in parallel:
+
+```
+Task [agent-name]: "Review this plan using your expertise. Apply all your checks and patterns. Plan content: [full plan content]"
+```
+
+**CRITICAL RULES:**
+- Do NOT filter agents by "relevance" - run them ALL
+- Do NOT skip agents because they "might not apply" - let them decide
+- Launch ALL agents in a SINGLE message with multiple Task tool calls
+- 20, 30, 40 parallel agents is fine - use everything
+- Each agent may catch something others miss
+- The goal is MAXIMUM coverage, not efficiency
+
+**Step 4: Also discover and run research agents**
+
+Research agents (like `best-practices-researcher`, `framework-docs-researcher`, `git-history-analyzer`, `repo-research-analyst`) should also be run for relevant plan sections.
+
+### 6. Wait for ALL Agents and Synthesize Everything
+
+<thinking>
+Wait for ALL parallel agents to complete - skills, research agents, review agents, everything. Then synthesize all findings into a comprehensive enhancement.
+</thinking>
+
+**Collect outputs from ALL sources:**
+
+1. **Skill-based sub-agents** - Each skill's full output (code examples, patterns, recommendations)
+2. **Learnings/Solutions sub-agents** - Relevant documented learnings from /workflows-compound
+3. **Research agents** - Best practices, documentation, real-world examples
+4. **Review agents** - All feedback from every reviewer (architecture, security, performance, simplicity, etc.)
+5. **Context7 queries** - Framework documentation and patterns
+6. **Web searches** - Current best practices and articles
+
+**For each agent's findings, extract:**
+- [ ] Concrete recommendations (actionable items)
+- [ ] Code patterns and examples (copy-paste ready)
+- [ ] Anti-patterns to avoid (warnings)
+- [ ] Performance considerations (metrics, benchmarks)
+- [ ] Security considerations (vulnerabilities, mitigations)
+- [ ] Edge cases discovered (handling strategies)
+- [ ] Documentation links (references)
+- [ ] Skill-specific patterns (from matched skills)
+- [ ] Relevant learnings (past solutions that apply - prevent repeating mistakes)
+
+**Deduplicate and prioritize:**
+- Merge similar recommendations from multiple agents
+- Prioritize by impact (high-value improvements first)
+- Flag conflicting advice for human review
+- Group by plan section
+
+### 7. Enhance Plan Sections
+
+<thinking>
+Merge research findings back into the plan, adding depth without changing the original structure.
+</thinking>
+
+**Enhancement format for each section:**
+
+```markdown
+## [Original Section Title]
+
+[Original content preserved]
+
+### Research Insights
+
+**Best Practices:**
+- [Concrete recommendation 1]
+- [Concrete recommendation 2]
+
+**Performance Considerations:**
+- [Optimization opportunity]
+- [Benchmark or metric to target]
+
+**Implementation Details:**
+```[language]
+// Concrete code example from research
+```
+
+**Edge Cases:**
+- [Edge case 1 and how to handle]
+- [Edge case 2 and how to handle]
+
+**References:**
+- [Documentation URL 1]
+- [Documentation URL 2]
+```
+
+### 8. Add Enhancement Summary
+
+At the top of the plan, add a summary section:
+
+```markdown
+## Enhancement Summary
+
+**Deepened on:** [Date]
+**Sections enhanced:** [Count]
+**Research agents used:** [List]
+
+### Key Improvements
+1. [Major improvement 1]
+2. [Major improvement 2]
+3. [Major improvement 3]
+
+### New Considerations Discovered
+- [Important finding 1]
+- [Important finding 2]
+```
+
+### 9. Update Plan File
+
+**Write the enhanced plan:**
+- Preserve original filename
+- Add `-deepened` suffix if user prefers a new file
+- Update any timestamps or metadata
+
+## Output Format
+
+Update the plan file in place (or if user requests a separate file, append `-deepened` after `-plan`, e.g., `2026-01-15-feat-auth-plan-deepened.md`).
+
+## Quality Checks
+
+Before finalizing:
+- [ ] All original content preserved
+- [ ] Research insights clearly marked and attributed
+- [ ] Code examples are syntactically correct
+- [ ] Links are valid and relevant
+- [ ] No contradictions between sections
+- [ ] Enhancement summary accurately reflects changes
+
+## Post-Enhancement Options
+
+After writing the enhanced plan, use the **ask_user_question tool** to present these options:
+
+**Question:** "Plan deepened at `[plan_path]`. What would you like to do next?"
+
+**Options:**
+1. **View diff** - Show what was added/changed
+2. **Run `/technical_review`** - Get feedback from reviewers on enhanced plan
+3. **Start `/workflows-work`** - Begin implementing this enhanced plan
+4. **Deepen further** - Run another round of research on specific sections
+5. **Revert** - Restore original plan (if backup exists)
+
+Based on selection:
+- **View diff** → Run `git diff [plan_path]` or show before/after
+- **`/technical_review`** → Call the /technical_review command with the plan file path
+- **`/workflows-work`** → Call the /workflows-work command with the plan file path
+- **Deepen further** → Ask which sections need more research, then re-run those agents
+- **Revert** → Restore from git or backup
+
+## Example Enhancement
+
+**Before (from /workflows-plan):**
+```markdown
+## Technical Approach
+
+Use React Query for data fetching with optimistic updates.
+```
+
+**After (from /workflows-deepen-plan):**
+```markdown
+## Technical Approach
+
+Use React Query for data fetching with optimistic updates.
+
+### Research Insights
+
+**Best Practices:**
+- Configure `staleTime` and `cacheTime` based on data freshness requirements
+- Use `queryKey` factories for consistent cache invalidation
+- Implement error boundaries around query-dependent components
+
+**Performance Considerations:**
+- Enable `refetchOnWindowFocus: false` for stable data to reduce unnecessary requests
+- Use `select` option to transform and memoize data at query level
+- Consider `placeholderData` for instant perceived loading
+
+**Implementation Details:**
+```typescript
+// Recommended query configuration
+const queryClient = new QueryClient({
+  defaultOptions: {
+    queries: {
+      staleTime: 5 * 60 * 1000, // 5 minutes
+      retry: 2,
+      refetchOnWindowFocus: false,
+    },
+  },
+});
+```
+
+**Edge Cases:**
+- Handle race conditions with `cancelQueries` on component unmount
+- Implement retry logic for transient network failures
+- Consider offline support with `persistQueryClient`
+
+**References:**
+- https://tanstack.com/query/latest/docs/react/guides/optimistic-updates
+- https://tkdodo.eu/blog/practical-react-query
+```
+
+NEVER CODE! Just research and enhance the plan.
+## Pi + MCPorter note
+For MCP access in Pi, use MCPorter via the generated tools:
+- `mcporter_list` to inspect available MCP tools
+- `mcporter_call` to invoke a tool
