limps planning
Purpose
Provide consistent guidance for selecting limps MCP tools in common planning workflows.
When to Use
- Creating or updating plans and agents
- Finding the next task or plan status
- Searching or updating documents in a plans directory
Quick Tool Selection
- Create a plan:
create_plan, then create_doc for plan files
- List plans:
list_plans
- List agents:
list_agents
- Plan status:
get_plan_status
- Next task:
get_next_task
- Search docs:
search_docs
- Update status:
update_task_status
- Read/process docs:
process_doc, process_docs
- Update plan priority/severity:
update_doc (edit plan frontmatter)
Examples
Find the next task in a plan
list_plans → pick plan name
get_next_task with plan number/name
Update an agent status
list_agents for the plan
update_task_status with task ID and new status
Automate plan priority and severity
process_doc the plan file (e.g., plans/0030-foo/0030-foo-plan.md) to read frontmatter
- Determine
priority and severity values (low | medium | high | critical)
update_doc with new frontmatter fields (do not edit config.json)
- Optional: add a brief note in plan content or decisions log describing why it was updated
Extract open features across plans
process_docs with pattern plans/*/*-plan.md
- Use
extractFeatures() to filter GAP
Notes
- Paths should be relative to the configured
plansPath or docsPaths.
- Use
process_doc(s) for structured extraction instead of manual parsing.
