RightNow Agent plan mode separates exploration and design from implementation. Use it when the task has meaningful architectural ambiguity and you want to approve an approach before code changes begin.
| Action | How |
|---|---|
| Enter before the next prompt | /plan or cycle to Plan with Shift+Tab. |
| Enter and start immediately | /plan <description>. |
| Agent-requested entry | The agent calls enter_plan_mode; you approve or decline. |
| Leave with approval | Approve the preview opened by exit_plan_mode. |
| Leave without building | Press q in the approval view. |
/plan Design the authentication migration before changing filesDuring active plan mode, RightNow can read and search the workspace. Edit tools may change only the session's plan.md; attempts to edit other files are rejected even when always-approve is armed.
The edit gate does not inspect shell redirection, and child agents have their own plan-mode state. A write-capable subagent can edit files unless its own tools or permissions prevent it.
The plan is stored inside the current session directory at ~/.rightnow/sessions/<cwd>/<session-id>/plan.md. The working-directory segment is encoded rather than copied literally.
Run /view-plan, /show-plan, or /plan-view to reopen the saved preview.
When planning finishes, the approval view reads plan.md from disk and presents it in a scrollable preview. You can approve, request revisions, attach line comments, copy the plan, or quit without implementation.
| Key | Action |
|---|---|
| a | Approve and start implementation, including pending comments. |
| s | Move to the prompt and request changes. |
| c | Comment on the selected line or range. |
| y | Copy the complete plan. |
| q | Abandon the plan and turn plan mode off. |
