- →Generate PRP
- →Create implementation plans
- →Retrieve context
- →Define verification commands
How it works
It analyzes requests, retrieves context from memory/code, and drafts a structured plan with verification steps.

PRP Planner Skill
Workflow
- Analyze Request: Identify user intent.
- Context Retrieval (JIT): Query
supermemory(past decisions),qdrant(code patterns),context7(external docs). - Drafting: Load template
prp_base.md. Populate Context, Goals, Changes.- Crucial: Generate EXACT verification commands (e.g.,
npm test).
- Crucial: Generate EXACT verification commands (e.g.,
- Output: Save to
.prp/plans/<feature>.plan.md.
Constraints
- Do NOT write implementation code.
- Do NOT read >5 files. Use Qdrant summaries.
When not to use it
- →Writing implementation code
Limitations
- →Limited to 5 files for context
- →Requires manual code implementation later
How it compares
It enforces a planning-first workflow that explicitly forbids writing code during the planning phase.
