Planning Inventory Skill

Provides a unified view of all planning-related components across the marketplace, including core planning infrastructure and derived components in domain bundles.

Purpose

Planning-related components are distributed across bundles:

This skill provides a single command to discover all planning components.

Note: pm-dev-java and pm-dev-frontend no longer contain planning-specific components. The thin agent architecture in pm-workflow loads domain skills dynamically via references.json.

When to Use This Skill

Activate this skill when you need to:

• •Get a complete inventory of planning-related components
• •Understand the planning component ecosystem
• •Validate planning system integrity
• •Generate reports on planning capabilities

Workflow

Step 1: Execute Planning Inventory Scan

Run the planning inventory scanner script:

Script: pm-workflow:planning-inventory

python3 .plan/execute-script.py pm-workflow:planning-inventory:scan-planning-inventory scan

Step 2: Parse and Return Results

The script outputs JSON organized into core and derived categories.

Script Parameters

--format (optional)

Output format. Default: full

Examples:

python3 .plan/execute-script.py pm-workflow:planning-inventory:scan-planning-inventory scan --format full
python3 .plan/execute-script.py pm-workflow:planning-inventory:scan-planning-inventory scan --format summary

--include-descriptions (optional flag)

When specified, includes description fields from YAML frontmatter.

python3 .plan/execute-script.py pm-workflow:planning-inventory:scan-planning-inventory scan --include-descriptions

Component Categories

Core Components (pm-workflow bundle)

Thin Agents (4 generic agents that load domain skills dynamically):

• •plan-init-agent - Initialize plan, detect domains
• •solution-outline-agent - Create deliverables
• •task-plan-agent - Create tasks from deliverables
• •task-execute-agent - Execute single task

Derived Components (domain bundles)

Note: pm-dev-java and pm-dev-frontend no longer have planning-specific components. Domain skills are loaded by thin agents via references.json.

Dependencies

This skill uses pm-plugin-development:tools-marketplace-inventory internally with:

• •--bundles: Filtered to planning-related bundles
• •--name-pattern: Filtered to planning-related patterns

Non-Prompting Requirements

This skill is designed to run without user prompts. Required permissions:

Script Execution:

• •Bash(bash:*) - Bash interpreter
• •Script permissions synced via /tools-setup-project-permissions

Script only reads marketplace directory structure (no writes).
