Workflow Plan Command (/workflow:plan)

Overview

Creates actionable implementation plans with intelligent input source detection. Supports text, files, issues, and templates through automatic recognition.

Core Principles

File Structure: @~/.claude/workflows/workflow-architecture.md

Usage

/workflow:plan [--AM gemini|codex] <input>

Analysis Method Flag (--AM)

Optional flag to specify which CLI tool to use for context analysis:

• gemini (default): Uses Gemini CLI for pattern-based analysis and architectural understanding
• codex: Uses Codex CLI for autonomous development context gathering with intelligent file discovery

Examples:

/workflow:plan --AM codex "Build authentication system"
/workflow:plan --AM gemini requirements.md
/workflow:plan ISS-001  # Uses default (gemini)

Input Detection Logic

The command automatically detects input type:

File Input (Auto-detected)

/workflow:plan requirements.md
/workflow:plan PROJECT_SPEC.txt
/workflow:plan config.json
/workflow:plan spec.yaml

Triggers: Extensions: .md, .txt, .json, .yaml, .yml Processing: Reads file contents and extracts requirements

Issue Input (Auto-detected)

/workflow:plan ISS-001
/workflow:plan ISSUE-123
/workflow:plan feature-request-45

Triggers: Patterns: ISS-, ISSUE-, -request- Processing: Loads issue data and acceptance criteria

Template Input (Auto-detected)

/workflow:plan web-api
/workflow:plan mobile-app
/workflow:plan database-migration
/workflow:plan security-feature

Triggers: Known template names Processing: Loads template and prompts for customization

Text Input (Default)

/workflow:plan "Build user authentication with JWT and OAuth2"
/workflow:plan "Fix performance issues in dashboard"

Triggers: Everything else Processing: Parse natural language requirements

Automatic Behaviors

Session Management

• Creates new session if none exists
• Uses active session if available
• Generates session ID: WFS-[topic-slug]

Complexity Detection

• Simple: <5 tasks → Direct IMPL_PLAN.md
• Medium: 5-15 tasks → IMPL_PLAN.md + TODO_LIST.md
• Complex: >15 tasks → Full decomposition

Task Generation

• Automatically creates .task/ files when complexity warrants
• Generates hierarchical task structure (max 3 levels)
• Updates session state with task references

Implementation Field Requirements

⚠️ CRITICAL: All generated tasks must include detailed implementation guidance

analysis_source Assignment Rules:

• "manual": User provides complete implementation details (including specific files and code snippets)
• "gemini": Insufficient information, requires Gemini analysis (missing file paths or code context)
• "codex": Insufficient information, requires Codex autonomous development analysis (complex refactoring or intelligent file discovery)
• "auto-detected": System automatically infers implementation details (based on pattern recognition)

Decision Flow:

1. IF user provides file paths + code snippets → "manual"
2. ELIF system can infer implementation location → "auto-detected"
3. ELIF --AM codex specified → "codex" (requires autonomous development analysis)
4. ELSE → "gemini" (requires deep analysis, default method)

Auto-fill Strategy:

1. Sufficient Information: Auto-fill implementation field based on user input and project context

2. Insufficient Information: Mark analysis_source appropriately and prompt:

   For Gemini Analysis (default):

   ⚠️ Implementation details incomplete, recommend using gemini analysis:
   gemini --all-files -p "@{relevant-file-patterns} @{CLAUDE.md} 
   Analyze task: [task description]
   Extract: 1) File locations and code snippets 2) Modification logic and data flow 3) Risks and dependencies"
   

   For Codex Analysis (when --AM codex specified):

   ⚠️ Implementation details incomplete, recommend using codex analysis:
   codex --full-auto exec "Analyze and implement: [task description]
   Context: Autonomous analysis and implementation guidance needed
   Extract: 1) Intelligent file discovery 2) Implementation strategy 3) Autonomous development approach"
   

Required Implementation Sub-fields:

• files: Must contain at least 1 file with detailed info (path, location, original_code, modifications)
• context_notes: Dependencies, risks, performance considerations
• analysis_source: manual|gemini|codex|auto-detected

Quality Standards:

• logic_flow must use specified symbols (───►, ◊───, ◄───)
• Each file must have specific location (function name or line range)
• risks array cannot be empty, must contain at least 1 risk assessment

Session Check Process

⚠️ CRITICAL: Check for existing active session before planning

1. Check Active Session: Check for .workflow/.active-* marker file
2. Session Selection: Use existing active session or create new
3. Context Integration: Load session state and existing context

Output Documents

IMPL_PLAN.md (Always Created)

# Implementation Plan - [Project Name]
*Generated from: [input_source]*

## Requirements
[Extracted requirements from input source]

## Task Breakdown
- **IMPL-001**: [Task description]
- **IMPL-002**: [Task description]

## Success Criteria
[Measurable completion conditions]

Optional TODO_LIST.md (Auto-triggered)

Created when complexity > simple or task count > 5

Task JSON Files (Auto-created)

Generated in .task/ directory when decomposition enabled

Error Handling

Input Processing Errors

• File not found: Clear error message with suggestions
• Invalid issue: Verify issue ID exists
• Unknown template: List available templates
• Empty input: Prompt for valid input

Integration Points

Related Commands

• /workflow:session:start - Create new session first
• /context - View generated plan
• /task/execute - Execute decomposed tasks
• /workflow:execute - Run implementation phase

Template System

Available templates:

• web-api: REST API development
• mobile-app: Mobile application
• database-migration: Database changes
• security-feature: Security implementation
