masterplan

masterplan

description

Generic/Codex entrypoint for masterplan: bare /masterplan, /masterplan:masterplan, $masterplan, or any verb. All verbs (full, brainstorm, plan, execute, finish, retro, import, doctor, status, validate, stats, clean, next, verbs, render, publish, follow) route through this single command — v8 ships NO per-verb /masterplan:<verb> skills (they shadowed Claude Code built-ins like /plan, /status, /doctor and added nothing over bare-command routing).

Central agent policy

AUQ, Serena, Hindsight, context-mode, and agent policy is centralized in AGENTS.md in the agent-dispatch repo (agent-dispatch where). This skill must not duplicate or override dispatch rules. User-facing choices must use ask_user_question / AskUserQuestion, never prose questions.

Codex entrypoint for Superpowers Masterplan

This skill is the Codex-visible entrypoint for Superpowers Masterplan. Its job is to load the canonical command prompt and adapt it to the current Codex runtime.

Source of truth (v8 clean-core layout)

As of v8, commands/masterplan.md is a self-contained thin orchestrator (~800 lines) that sequences the whole workflow inline — there are no parts/ phase files to lazy-load. The deterministic decisions live in lib/*.mjs behind bin/masterplan.mjs subcommands (invoked as mp), and doctor is bin/doctor.mjs + the lib/doctor/*.mjs modules. Load the command prompt once and follow its own §0 Boot → §1 Parse verb → §2 Resume sequencing; do not look for per-phase files.

Resolve commands/masterplan.md in this order (its siblings bin/ and lib/ sit beside it at the plugin root):

1. ../../commands/masterplan.md relative to this SKILL.md file.
2. $PWD/commands/masterplan.md when running inside the plugin repo.
3. /path/to/masterplan/commands/masterplan.md.
4. $HOME/.codex/.tmp/marketplaces/rasatpetabit-masterplan/commands/masterplan.md.
5. $HOME/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/rasatpetabit-masterplan/commands/masterplan.md.
6. $HOME/.claude/commands/masterplan.md.

If none exists, say the local masterplan command file is missing and stop before inventing behavior.

Run the deterministic core with the Node entrypoints that sit beside the command file. The prompt writes them as node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/bin/masterplan.mjs" and node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/bin/doctor.mjs"; ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} is a Claude Code variable that may be unset under Codex, so resolve bin/ as the sibling of the located commands/masterplan.md:

• mp <subcommand> → node <plugin-root>/bin/masterplan.mjs <subcommand> … — the state reads/writes (decide, finish-status, gate verbs, set-status). This is the sole state writer; the shell owns git (commit/checkout), the bin is fs-only.
• doctor → node <plugin-root>/bin/doctor.mjs.

In Codex, prefer summary-first inventory (rg --files docs/masterplan plus targeted state.yml reads) before opening plan/spec artifacts. Avoid exploratory full-file dumps of large prompt, plan, transcript, or event-log files.

Configuration (seed flags + set-review-config → state.yml)

v8 has no .masterplan.yaml config hierarchy — there is no built-in/user-global/repo-local merge step to perform. Configuration is set on the run bundle and read back from docs/masterplan/<slug>/state.yml:

• Seed-time flags (mp seed): --autonomy, --complexity, --planning-mode (serial|parallel|auto), --adversary-review=on|off (default on; alias --codex-review) — persisted into state.yml at run creation. Every fresh bundle arms state.review.adversary: true automatically; pass off for explicit opt-out.
• Review config (mp set-review-config --review=true|false [--routing=auto|on|off]; alias mp set-codex-config): a CD-7 write that arms state.review.adversary. The finish-step gate gates the optional review stage on state.review.adversary === true (falling back to the legacy state.codex.review for in-flight bundles). New bundles inherit true from the seed-time default; pass --review=false post-seed to opt out. --routing is the legacy per-task dispatch default (state.codex.routing), still read by prepare-wave for in-flight bundles.

Read the run's config from state.yml; do not look for or merge any config file.

When Codex hosts the run, host suppression only forces the effective review behavior off for the current invocation to avoid recursive Codex-on-Codex dispatch; it does not rewrite the persisted state.yml values (state.review.adversary, or legacy state.codex.{routing,review}), which still apply to future Claude Code runs.

Invocation mapping

Treat these user inputs as this skill:

• Use masterplan <args> as a normal Codex chat message
• masterplan <args> when it appears as natural-language chat, not shell input
• $masterplan
• $masterplan <args> when it appears as normal chat; do not recommend this form because Codex TUI shell-command mode sends it to Bash
• /masterplan
• /masterplan <args>
• /masterplan:masterplan
• /masterplan:masterplan <args>
• natural-language requests to use, resume, check, import, or continue masterplan work.

No per-verb skills (v8). masterplan ships exactly two skill dirs — this one and masterplan-detect. There are no /masterplan:<verb> per-verb skills: every verb (brainstorm, full, execute, finish, retro, import, doctor, status, validate, stats, clean, next, verbs, render, publish, follow, and plan) is dispatched by the bare /masterplan <verb> command through bin/masterplan.mjs (verb routing in commands/masterplan.md §1/§3). The per-verb namespace was removed because it added nothing over bare-command routing and the reserved words plan/status/doctor actively shadowed Claude Code built-ins (/plan plan-mode, /status, /doctor). The namespace-collision guard (lib/hygiene.mjs → findNamespaceCollisions, driven by test/publish-hygiene.test.mjs) keeps it that way: only masterplan + masterplan-detect are allowed under skills/.

The arguments are the text after the command name. If there are no arguments, follow the command's bare invocation flow: resume active state.yml first, re-render pending gates, poll background continuations, and treat status: blocked as critical-error recovery rather than an ordinary pause. When Codex renders a manual resume hint or close-out instruction, use an explicit normal chat instruction, e.g. send a normal Codex chat message: Use masterplan execute docs/masterplan/<slug>/state.yml; do not surface Claude-only /masterplan ... or shell-looking $masterplan ... as the primary Codex resume command.

Codex native goal bridge

Codex native goal support is a pursuit wrapper for Masterplan plans, not a Masterplan verb. After a plan exists, follow the command prompt's Codex native goal pursuit contract: use get_goal to inspect the active thread goal, create one with create_goal when an in-progress state.yml has no matching goal, and call update_goal(status="complete") only after Masterplan's own completion finalizer proves the plan is complete. Do not run /goal, $goal, or goal in shell-command mode; those are host UI inputs, not executables. state.yml remains authoritative for task position and recovery.

Existing Claude-created projects

Codex must recognize plans created by Claude Code. Before starting a new plan, inspect the current repo/worktree for:

• docs/masterplan/*/state.yml
• docs/masterplan/*/{spec.md,plan.md,retro.md,events.jsonl}
• legacy docs/superpowers/plans/*-status.md
• legacy docs/superpowers/{plans,specs,retros,archived-plans,archived-specs}/*.md

Do not assume there is no active work because Codex did not create the run bundle. state.yml is the durable source of truth.

Codex tool adaptation

When the command prompt names Claude Code tools, use the local Codex equivalents:

• Read/LS/Grep/Glob: shell reads with sed, ls, rg, or rg --files.
• Edit/MultiEdit: apply_patch.
• Bash: exec_command.
• AskUserQuestion/Question: request_user_input when available; otherwise ask one concise prose question and wait.
• Task/Todo task tracking: update_plan.
• Workflow: no Codex equivalent — and none needed. Under host suppression mp continue never returns dispatch_fabric: execute waves come back as the dispatch_fabric op (Residual 3B, delivered) — run op.tasks one at a time in this session from op.cwd (track with update_plan), honor each task's files scope, then assemble the standard per-task digest array and feed it to mp record-result exactly as the §2 op table describes — and planning is forced onto §3a's SERIAL path (planning_mode: serial in the resume-phase op; the parallel plan fan-out is CC-only). Never run either workflow inline — the foreground-sequential op IS the Codex execution path.
• Skill: open the referenced SKILL.md and follow it.
• Agent/Subagent/Parallel: only spawn agents when the user explicitly asked for subagents or parallel agent work; otherwise run sequentially in this Codex session and use multi_tool_use.parallel only for independent tool calls.

Follow the command prompt's Codex-host suppression rules: do not recursively dispatch to Codex from inside a Codex-hosted masterplan run.

Use masterplan ... is the primary Codex chat/skill trigger for user-facing resume hints. $masterplan ... can work only when the host records it as normal chat; Codex TUI shell-command mode sends it to Bash. Never pass $masterplan ..., masterplan ..., or /masterplan ... to exec_command; Bash will either expand $masterplan as an environment variable or look for a nonexistent executable.

Codex host suppression is only about recursive dispatch and review. When a Codex request_user_input gate returns an answer label, treat that as explicit interactive selection evidence even when it is the first/recommended option and no free-form note is present. Follow the command prompt's codex_host_gate_continuation rule for continuation answers and keep moving for full / execute flows until a true halt gate, sensitive live-auth blocker, or actual Codex host budget stop fires.
