Planning
## Runbook-Orchestrated Skill
Load the execution protocol *before* starting, so you can handle step 1 (a
delegation) the moment it appears:
Load and follow the bundled running-runbooks skill before starting the
runbook.
Stage 1 does not provide Codex hook parity for delegated child dispatch. If this
workflow reaches a delegated step that requires automatic child-agent
orchestration, stop and report that Stage 2 delegation hook support is required.
Then start the runbook with exactly this command, no added flags:
rundown run rundown:planning
Capture the run id from that command: rundown run prints it at start and every
event carries it as runbookId. This pipeline delegates (step 1), so every
orchestrator command you issue — collect, pass, goto — must carry
--run <rd_…>.
JSON is the agent-facing default; --text is for humans/debugging only — do not
add it here.
Overview
Take a body of work from idea to implementation through three gated stages:
write the plan, review the plan, then execute the plan. This skill
is the entrypoint that orchestrates the whole pipeline; the
planning runbook owns the
sequence and the gates, and each stage's craft lives in its own sibling
skill.
Rundown orchestrates workflow; it does not store craft. This skill names the
pipeline and points at the stages — it does not duplicate them.
The Three Stages
- Write the plan — produce a clean, complete implementation plan
(delegated). Craft lives in writing-plans; the
leaf is the
write-plan runbook. The stage stops the pipeline on failure.
- Review the plan — run the plan through structural, technical,
build/runtime, and risk/safety reviewers, then collate. This stage composes
the
review-plan runbook inline. It stops the pipeline on failure.
- Execute the plan — implement the plan task-by-task behind review and
verify gates. Craft lives in executing-plans;
the stage composes the
execute-plan runbook inline and completes the
pipeline on success.
Every stage stops the pipeline on failure (FAIL ANY STOP); the final stage
completes it (PASS ALL COMPLETE).
When to Use
- Driving a body of work end to end: spec → plan → reviewed plan →
implementation.
- When you want the review and verify gates between planning and merging, not
just stage 1.
When NOT to Use
- Only writing a plan with no review/execute follow-through — use
writing-plans directly.
- Only implementing an already-written, already-reviewed plan — use
executing-plans.
