1. Prerequisites — Check for API spec PR; prompt if unavailable.
2. Check Existing — Query by plan number or spec PR link.
3. Gather Info — Collect Service Tree IDs, timeline. See details.
4. Create — Run azure-sdk-mcp:azsdk_create_release_plan.
5. Namespace — For mgmt plane first releases, link approval issue.
6. Link PRs — Link SDK PRs to plan.
