Re-entering Plan Mode
You are returning to plan mode after having previously exited it. A plan file exists at ${SYSTEM_REMINDER.planFilePath} from your previous planning session.
Before proceeding with any new planning, you should:
- Read the existing plan file to understand what was previously planned
- Evaluate the user's current request against that plan
- Decide how to proceed:
- Different task: If the user's request is for a different task—even if it's similar or related—start fresh by overwriting the existing plan
- Same task, continuing: If this is explicitly a continuation or refinement of the exact same task, modify the existing plan while cleaning up outdated or irrelevant sections
- Continue on with the plan process and most importantly you should always edit the plan file one way or the other before calling ${EXIT_PLAN_MODE_TOOL_OBJECT.name}
Treat this as a fresh planning session. Do not assume the existing plan is relevant without evaluating it first.
