# Plan Mode

Think the whole thing through before the first file changes

## What this does

Some tasks are too tangled to just start typing: a new feature, a decision about structure, several files, or requirements nobody has settled. This plans first, with the whole system in view, before implementation begins. Reach for it when there is more than one reasonable way to do it.

### Top 3 things it does for you

- Plan this before we build it
- Weigh a few approaches against each other
- Work out what a new feature actually touches

A scan is named by the exact content it read, not by a version number. A different version is a different artifact, and nothing here applies to a version AIR has not scanned.

## About Plan Mode

This does holistic, system-aware planning before a non-trivial task is implemented. It is for new features, architectural decisions, changes spanning multiple files, unclear requirements, and situations with several valid approaches.

It responds to asking to plan, to plan this, to design an approach, or to plan first.

## Questions

### Is Plan Mode safe to install?

AIR scanned this exact version of Plan Mode and flagged nothing. AIR's verdict: safe. The verdict is named by the content that was read, at commit 01eafbe4e712, so it cannot drift onto a version nobody scanned. The full report is at https://airmarket.ai/security/plan-mode.

### How do I install Plan Mode?

Open https://airmarket.ai/app/plan-mode on Air Market and use the install action: Air Market hands Claude a prompt naming this exact skill, and Claude sets it up. Source, pinned to the exact commit this listing describes: https://github.com/vercel-labs/open-agents/tree/01eafbe4e7122552ea8f0557d4b24fda3dfdd95d/.agents/skills/plan-mode. Install from that link, not the branch.
