 ## 2. Detect State
 
+### 2a. Load Plan Inventory from GitHub
+
+When GitHub integration is active (`phase_issue_number` is set):
+
+1. Fetch the phase issue and its comments:
+   ```
+   mcp_get_issue_detail(issue_number: phase_issue_number)
+   ```
+
+2. Parse issue comments to identify plan comments. A plan comment is one that contains either:
+   - A `<!-- maxsim:type=plan -->` HTML comment marker, OR
+   - A heading matching `## Plan NN` (where NN is a number)
+
+3. For each plan comment found:
+   - Extract the plan number (from the `## Plan NN` heading or frontmatter)
+   - Parse YAML frontmatter from the comment body for: `wave`, `dependencies`, `autonomous`, `objective`, `gap_closure`
+   - Store plan content in memory as `PLAN_COMMENTS[]`
+
+4. Check completion status for each plan by calling:
+   ```
+   mcp_list_sub_issues(issue_number: phase_issue_number)
+   ```
+   A plan is considered complete when ALL of its task sub-issues are closed (state: closed).
+   Additionally, check for `<!-- maxsim:type=summary -->` comments on the phase issue as a secondary completion signal.
+
+5. Build `plan_inventory` from GitHub data:
+   - `plans[]`: each with `id`, `wave`, `autonomous`, `objective`, `has_summary` (derived from sub-issue closure)
+   - `incomplete_plans[]`: plans where not all task sub-issues are closed
+   - `plan_count`: total plan comments found
+   - `incomplete_count`: count of incomplete plans
+
+When GitHub integration is NOT active (no `phase_issue_number`), fall back to local file scanning:
+```bash
+PLAN_INDEX=$(node .claude/maxsim/bin/maxsim-tools.cjs phase-plan-index "${PHASE_NUMBER}")
+```
+
+### 2b. Check for External Edits (WIRE-06)
+
+If phase_issue_number is set, optionally detect whether the phase issue was externally modified since last read:
+
+```
+mcp_detect_external_edits(issue_number: phase_issue_number)
+```
+
+If external edits are detected: warn the user before proceeding.
