name	plan-mode
description	Create, execute, and adjust structured multi-step plans. Use when a task requires multiple tool calls in sequence with dependency tracking and error handling. Supports delegation to other Chooms.

Plan Mode

When to Use

• Complex multi-step tasks -> create_plan first, then execute_plan
• Research + write workflows -> plan steps with dependencies
• Multi-Choom collaboration -> delegate steps to specialist Chooms
• Task failed mid-plan -> adjust_plan to modify remaining steps
• Any task requiring 3+ tool calls with ordering constraints

How It Works

1. create_plan: Define a goal and ordered steps. Each step is either a tool step (calls a tool directly) or a delegate step (sends a task to another Choom). Use dependsOn to express ordering. Use {{step_N.result.field}} to reference previous step outputs.
2. execute_plan: Runs the plan step-by-step. Delegate steps are routed through delegate_to_choom automatically. A watcher evaluates each step result and decides: continue, retry, skip, or abort. Streams progress events.
3. adjust_plan: If a step fails during execution, modify remaining steps (change args, skip steps, or add new steps).

Step Types

Tool Steps (type: "tool")

Standard tool calls routed through the skill registry:

{ "id": "step_1", "type": "tool", "toolName": "web_search", "args": { "query": "..." } }

Delegate Steps (type: "delegate")

Send a task to another Choom and get their response:

{ "id": "step_2", "type": "delegate", "choomName": "Genesis", "task": "Research the topic and summarize findings", "dependsOn": ["step_1"] }

Important

• Maximum 10 steps per plan
• Tool names must exist in the skill registry
• Delegate steps require choom-delegation skill to be enabled
• Use {{step_N.result.response}} to reference a delegation result's text content
• Plans live in memory for the current request only
• Execute sends plan_step_update SSE events for real-time progress
