Edit and save one plan

Edit one plan, save the reviewed version in the right place and open it before Build.

Step 1 of 2

Open one Plan Mode draft. Remove a step that duplicates existing code, then add a non-goal and the exact test and lint commands. Decide who needs the plan next. Leave it in the default home location for personal work, or choose Save to workspace for project or team review. Open the saved Markdown and compare it with the revised plan before you click Build.

Prune the plan, add a gate, then keep it as the contract

  1. Plan Mode writes this out as prose, not a checklist with an approve button. It's Markdown, sitting right there — you can edit it directly, and nothing builds until you say go.
  2. Step 3 stands up a brand-new Redis client, but billing already owns one — that doesn't serve this task, so delete it right in the plan text. Add an out-of-scope line and a verify gate while you're editing.
  3. Now every step has an owner — Agent, the reviewer, or CI — and the verify gate lives in the plan itself. That's the version the build and the review both point to.
Prune the plan's own Markdown, add a verify gate and owners, then treat the revised plan as the contract.

Practice next: Now try it: open a plan the agent wrote, cut what doesn't serve the task, add a verify gate, and tag each step with its owner.
