Trigger Reference

This skill activates on:

• Keywords: "plan this", "how should I approach", "create plan", "quick plan", "break down into steps", "research tech", "planning", "approach", "strategy", "implementation plan"
• Intent Patterns: (plan|approach|strategy).*(this|feature|task), how.*?(approach|implement|structure), break.*?down.*?steps, research.*(tech|technology|options), create.*(plan|strategy)

From: skill-rules.json - contextkit-planning-trigger configuration

Purpose

Automatically trigger ContextKit planning commands (/ctxk:plan:quick, /ctxk:plan:1-spec, /ctxk:plan:2-research-tech, /ctxk:plan:3-steps) when users request planning assistance using natural language.

Core Behavior

In any DAIC mode:

1. Planning Intent Detection

   • Detect planning requests from natural language
   • Route to appropriate ContextKit planning command

2. Command Routing

   • Quick planning: "plan this feature" → /ctxk:plan:quick
   • Detailed spec: "create detailed spec" → /ctxk:plan:1-spec
   • Tech research: "research technology options" → /ctxk:plan:2-research-tech
   • Implementation steps: "break down into steps" → /ctxk:plan:3-steps

Natural Language Examples

Triggers this skill:

• ✓ "Plan this feature"
• ✓ "How should I approach this?"
• ✓ "Break down into steps"
• ✓ "Research tech options"
• ✓ "Create implementation plan"

Safety Guardrails

ANALYSIS-ONLY RULES:

• ✓ NEVER call write tools
• ✓ Only invokes ContextKit planning commands (read-only)
• ✓ Safe to run in any DAIC mode
