Summary

Add a session-scoped /plan workflow to the TUI, with durable per-workspace/session storage outside the workspace and external editing through $VISUAL or $EDITOR. A plan update is accepted only after its durable write succeeds, so failed saves cannot leave the tool and panel ahead of status and reloads.

Refs #854. This PR continues the plan-mode work from the closed PR.

Changes

  • Add /plan on, /plan status, /plan open, and /plan off, permission-mode restoration, and lifetime notices. Switching sessions exits Plan mode; returning from BTW restores the parent's mode.
  • Restrict tools and permission requests during Plan mode, pause automatic loop and goal continuations, and propagate accepted plan snapshots to the TUI.
  • Keep candidate plan updates private to each run. Persist before reporting tool success, then publish the accepted snapshot to the visible tool and panel. On failure, return a tool error and recover the latest durable value when readable; otherwise retain the last accepted session snapshot and display the storage error alongside it.
  • Keep hidden-parent publication separate from the visible BTW tool. Ignore cancelled parent snapshots, preserve empty clears, and carry accepted state through completion when no live message sink is configured.
  • Store plans under protected directory handles with Unix no-follow and Windows reparse-point checks. Exclude all sandbox-writable temporary roots from trusted storage and editor staging.
  • Serialize baseline comparison and atomic replacement across processes, require editor baseline metadata, preserve rejected saved edits for recovery, and honor cancellation during writer-lock acquisition.
  • Version newly written plan files with <!-- zero-plan-format: 2 --> so leading backslashes remain literal. Retain the legacy decoder and convert older plans with a baseline check before staging; an unchanged editor still produces no authored edit. Document the marker and continuation quoting in the README.

Test plan

Validated with Go 1.26.6:

  • make fmt-check, go vet ./..., and full Linux go test ./....
  • go run ./cmd/zero-release build and go run ./cmd/zero-release smoke.
  • make lint-static with pinned golangci-lint v2.12.2; make vulncheck with pinned govulncheck v1.3.0.
  • Full Linux race tests for internal/tui and internal/planmode, Windows plan/editor/BTW/storage tests, and macOS arm64 TUI test cross-compilation.
  • git diff HEAD --check.

Windows temporary-directory cleanup failures were intermittent; the affected tests passed on focused reruns. The macOS check above is cross-compilation, not native execution.

On d5411482, Linux and macOS CI passed. Windows CI failed in TestExecCommandForegroundServerReturnsSessionAndServesHTTP: server output did not include listening address. The test is unchanged from main and expects the address in the initial 500 ms output window. A maintainer rerun is needed; GitHub rejected the rerun request because it requires repository admin rights.

Regressions were run against the original PR head and the fixed code:

  • TestPlanPublicationFailureKeepsConsumersAligned forces conflicts, lock failures, startup read errors, and persistent unreadability through the actual TUI agent/tool callback path. It checks the tool, panel, status, durable file, model error result, and BTW return; success, empty clears, and completion without a live sink are also covered. The original code failed with tool accepted rejected publication and model error result = false, want true for durable publication.

  • TestCancelledParentPlanMessageCannotReplaceBTWSnapshot failed on the original code with cancelled parent replaced accepted BTW snapshot.

  • TestPlanEditorPreservesLiteralBackslashes failed on the original code with editor reload changed literal backslashes, losing one backslash from a two-backslash path. Fixed tests also cover legacy decoding, CRLF, continuation quoting, and conversion without a false edit event.

  • The earlier TestPlanPublicationCancelsWhileLockIsHeld regression returned lockutil: lock is held on the original implementation instead of context deadline exceeded; the fixed code preserves the durable plan while honoring cancellation.

  • The publication integration regression also checks read-versus-write error labels across live, BTW, and completion delivery. On the previous head it failed with publication failure reported the wrong operation; the fixed code names the operation that failed.

Prior reviewer feedback addressed

  • Implement the persist-then-propagate strategy from the latest maintainer review, with one accepted plan shared by publication, status, tool state, and BTW restoration. Save failure is a failed tool operation rather than a success followed only by a transcript error.
  • Preserve interprocess acceptance locking, required baseline sidecars, full sandbox temporary-root coverage, rejected-edit recovery, cancellation ordering, and editor no-op/authorship handling.
  • Address the leading-backslash editor finding with an explicit format marker and legacy compatibility. Show the required pipe followed by one space in literal README examples.
  • Distinguish startup baseline-read errors from attempted-write errors in the tool result.
  • Preserve canonical status, Windows editor-path handling, agent-loop integration assertions, isolated test storage, and the confirmed session-scoped lifetime policy.
  • Keep the existing temp-root regression fix: Unix tests use both TMPDIR and an actual directory beneath /tmp.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added /plan open to edit and save a session’s plan using your configured editor. Failed or conflicting saves leave the accepted plan unchanged and preserve recoverable edits.
    • Plan files support literal backslashes and structural-looking lines; existing plans remain readable.
    • Plans are saved per session, and /plan status reflects the saved plan when available.
  • Behavior Changes
    • Plan mode ends when you switch sessions and is restored when you return from a /btw conversation.
    • Automatic loops and goal continuations pause in plan mode and resume after you exit.
    • /plan is unavailable within /btw; /spec remains available.

Recreated from closed PR #1008 by @euxaristia (approved but unmerged). Original branch: euxaristia/zero:feat/tui-plan-mode-v2

euxaristia and others added 30 commits September 17, 2026 21:46
- restrict plan file permissions to owner only (0o700 dir, 0o600 file)
- surface editor failures from /plan open in the transcript
- simplify fileExists to return a bool
- collapse redundant plan path resolution in planText
/plan open was non-functional because run.go assigned the live program
to a copy of the model after tea.NewProgram had already captured it by
value; the field is removed and tea.ExecProcess is used directly.
Shift+Tab no longer silently drops plan mode, planmode.DraftSystemPrompt
is wired into plan-mode runs, plan file paths reject symlink escapes,
read errors are no longer swallowed, opening a new plan file seeds it
from the agent's draft instead of leaving it blank and shadowing that
draft, /plan off restores the prior permission mode instead of forcing
Auto, and the session slug is stable when no session ID exists yet.
…g, and persistence

Make a bare /plan toggle off when already active instead of only
reprinting the plan. Scope plan mode to the session that entered it:
/new and /resume to a different session now exit plan mode instead of
leaking a stale grant or restore-mode across sessions. Create the
active session before naming its plan file so a fresh TUI no longer
collides on a shared plan.md. Persist every update_plan call to the
plan file so it is the durable source of truth instead of an
in-memory snapshot. Replace the preflight Lstat symlink check with
os.Root, closing the check/use race via descriptor-relative
operations. Skip the plan-file permission assertions on Windows,
where POSIX mode bits aren't meaningful.
…odes

exitPlanMode() unconditionally reset permissionMode to Auto before
restoring permissionModeBeforePlan, so /new and /resume to a different
session dropped an explicit Ask/Auto choice made outside plan mode.
Only touch permissionMode when actually leaving PermissionModePlan.
…tus and notes

/plan open let the user edit the plan file in $EDITOR, but the edit was
never synced back into the in-memory update_plan, so it kept driving
execution off the stale pre-edit draft. reloadPlanFromFile() now parses
the saved file and pushes it back into update_plan via a new SetPlan
method.

The first version of that parser discarded each item's [status] bracket
(resetting everything to pending on reload) and mis-parsed a "Notes: ..."
continuation line as its own bogus plan step. Both are fixed: status is
parsed back through the tool's existing normalization, and a Notes line
folds into the preceding item instead of becoming a new one.
The palette showed "/plan - Show planning mode status" but /plan
actually toggles plan mode and supports open/off subcommands.
…and session reset

- executeRequestPermissions now denies plan/spec-draft mode
  unconditionally, instead of relying on the registry-based
  ToolAdvertised gate, which only fires when the tool happens to be
  present in whatever registry the caller passed in.
- /new and /resume now clear the shared update_plan state and sticky
  plan panel on a session switch, not just the permission mode.
- A successful $EDITOR exit from /plan open now always emits
  planEditorFinishedMsg, so edited plan content actually reloads
  instead of being silently dropped.
- /plan open now blocks while a run is active, matching the bare
  /plan toggle's guard.
- parsePlanFileLines now folds multi-line Notes blocks instead of
  treating continuation lines as bogus new steps.
…ext, other findings

- /plan open now stages the plan file for $EDITOR in config.UserConfigDir()
  instead of handing it a workspace-relative path: ReadPlan/WritePlan resolve
  through os.Root and can't be redirected, but the external editor process
  opens its argument path with ordinary I/O, so a sandboxed tool invocation
  could previously replace the plan file with a symlink between our
  protected write and the editor's open. The OS temp directory doesn't avoid
  this since the sandbox's default write scope explicitly includes it.
- A user-edited plan now gets recorded as a session event on reload, so it
  actually reaches the model's context instead of only updating the
  update_plan tool's in-memory state, which the model has no way to observe
  on its own.
- /resume now hydrates the destination session's own persisted plan file
  after a session switch, instead of leaving update_plan and the sticky
  panel empty until the next update_plan call risks overwriting it.
- formatPlanItems/parsePlanFileLines now indent multi-line Content
  continuations the same way Notes continuations already were, so
  agent-authored multi-line plan steps survive a round-trip through $EDITOR
  instead of shattering into bogus new pending steps.
- WritePlan now Chmods the plan directory and file unconditionally after
  MkdirAll/OpenFile, since those only apply their mode at creation and would
  otherwise leave a pre-existing, more permissive dir/file broadly readable.
- /plan open now checks plan mode is active before ensureActiveSession
  instead of after, so an invalid invocation doesn't leave a persistent
  empty session behind in /resume.
- StageForEditor rejects a staging directory that XDG_CONFIG_HOME has
  redirected into the sandbox's default-writable roots (the workspace or
  the OS temp directory) instead of silently staging somewhere a sandboxed
  process could symlink-swap.
- The staged file is created per invocation via os.CreateTemp: a random,
  unpredictable name opened with O_EXCL, so a planted path is refused
  rather than followed, and two Zero instances editing the same resumed
  session no longer overwrite each other's staged draft. Cleanup removes
  only the file this invocation created.
- Clearing every line in the editor now records an explicit plan-cleared
  user event in the session context, so the next run does not replay the
  discarded plan from the earlier update_plan call.
- $VISUAL/$EDITOR values are parsed with POSIX shell word-splitting
  (mvdan.cc/sh/v3/shell, already a dependency) instead of strings.Fields,
  so quoted executable paths with spaces and flags launch correctly.
- The /plan palette description says the literal "off" subcommand, and
  the help expectation matches.
…an state, lossless plan encoding

- The editor staging containment check now judges physical paths: the
  staging directory is created first, resolved with EvalSymlinks, checked
  against the symlink-resolved workspace and temp roots, and the staging
  itself is anchored on the resolved path. An XDG_CONFIG_HOME symlinked
  into a sandbox-writable root no longer passes on its lexical spelling.
- update_plan refuses to apply once its run context is cancelled, with the
  check sharing the mutex that guards SetPlan, so a cancelled run's late
  call can no longer repopulate the plan the UI just reset for a new
  session; the UI-side file sync also runs only on successful results, so
  a refused call cannot rewrite the old session's plan file either.
- The plan file encoding round-trips losslessly: indentation is decided
  before content (a continuation reading "2. validate" stays a
  continuation), continuations whose text would read as structure
  ("Notes:" or a leading backslash) are escaped, and whitespace-only
  indented lines survive as blank continuation lines. Round-trip tests
  cover the adversarial cases and assert a fixed point on the second pass.
…xisting ancestor

The macOS and Windows CI runners spell temp paths through symlinks
(/var -> /private/var) and 8.3 short names (RUNNER~1): a staging directory
that does not exist yet kept its lexical spelling while the existing roots
resolved to physical form, so the containment comparison silently missed.
physicalPath now resolves the deepest existing ancestor and rejoins the
remainder, giving both sides the same spelling.
The planEditorFinishedMsg handler reloaded the edited plan file into both
the update_plan tool and the sticky panel, but emitted no visible
confirmation, so a bare /plan open with no other change looked like a
no-op. Append a system message noting the reload (or a clear when the
edited file is empty), and cover the full Update message path with a test
asserting the tool state, panel, and transcript are all updated.
Three review findings:

- Unknown /plan subcommands (a typo like "openx", or "status") fell
  through the switch to the bare toggle and silently exited the
  read-only mode. They now return a usage error; only bare /plan
  toggles.

- WritePlan opened the plan path with O_TRUNC, destroying the previous
  durable plan before the new content landed, and followed a symlink
  that resolves inside the workspace — a planted
  .zero/plans/<slug>.md symlink would redirect plan mode's one allowed
  write over an arbitrary workspace file. It now refuses symlinked
  targets and writes an owner-only O_EXCL temporary sibling renamed
  into place.

- The update_plan result callback re-read the shared tool's
  CurrentPlan() after the call released its mutex, so a cancel plus
  /new or /resume in that window persisted the wrong session's plan (or
  an empty reset) under the old run's session ID. A successful call now
  carries its own plan snapshot in the result meta and the callback
  persists exactly that snapshot.

…ctive

Plan mode promises a read-only turn, but sessionStart/sessionEnd fire on
every run and beforeTool/afterTool fire around allowed read calls, and
all four execute configured host commands outside the advertised-tool
and sandbox gates — so a project hook could mutate the workspace or
spawn a process from a session that advertises it cannot. Gate all four
dispatch points on the run's permission mode, with a regression test
asserting no hook command launches during a plan-mode run.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Entering plan mode replaced options.SystemPrompt wholesale with
planmode.DraftSystemPrompt, discarding any embedder-configured system
prompt for the whole duration of plan mode. Layer the plan-mode
instructions onto the configured prompt instead, falling back to the
plain draft prompt when nothing was configured. Also chmod the
plan-edit staging directory unconditionally after MkdirAll, so a
pre-existing, loosely permissioned directory no longer undermines the
staging design's symlink-race protection.
Plan mode still suppresses executable hooks so a read-only planning turn
cannot spawn host processes via session or tool hooks. Spec-draft keeps
the existing trust model so trusted worktrees inherit trust under
--use-spec --worktree (TestExecSpecWorktreeInheritsTrustEndToEnd).

Also close two plan-mode advertisement gaps that Twigpine#642 already fixed:
exclude process-spawning lsp_navigate, and require Safety metadata for
tools instead of a name-only ask_user/update_plan allowlist, with a
spoofed-name regression test.
update_plan is read-only and auto-allowed, but the TUI persisted every
successful call into .zero/plans under the workspace. Store durable
plans under the user config directory (scoped by workspace) so Ask mode
and plan mode no longer create workspace files without a write grant.

Also verify the editor staging directory is a plain owner-only dir
after chmod (reject group/world-writable or symlink paths), cover the
pre-existing permissive staging-dir case, and assert plan mode layers
DraftSystemPrompt onto a configured agent system prompt rather than
replacing it.
…ing checks

os.UserConfigDir (what config.UserConfigDir defers to outside darwin)
reads %AppData% on Windows and ignores XDG_CONFIG_HOME there, so tests
that only set XDG_CONFIG_HOME silently fail to isolate plan storage on
Windows and fall through to the runner's real profile directory. Set
AppData too wherever a test overrides the config root.

Also skip the new group/world-writable check in verifyPrivateDirectory
on Windows: NTFS reports a directory's POSIX mode via ACLs rather than
the bits os.Chmod sets, so the check rejected every staging directory
unconditionally and made /plan open never launch $EDITOR on Windows,
the same rationale already used to skip the file-mode assertion in
TestWritePlanUsesRestrictivePermissions.
slugify alone maps distinct session/workspace IDs that differ only by
separator (plan_a vs plan-a) onto the same path. pathKey appends a
SHA-256 suffix of the exact original string so durable plans stay
isolated across those collisions.

Refs Twigpine#643
…n mode completion, and continuation whitespace
…ool policy vetoes

Reset plan mode when drafting or approving specs, preserve beforeTool policy vetoes during plan mode, reject plan storage in temp tree, and hash unmodified identifiers in pathKey.

… by main

Both were thin unscoped wrappers around the Scoped variants, deleted
upstream in Twigpine#706 since nothing else called them directly. Only this
branch's tests still did; switch to the Scoped calls main's own tests
already use.
Reset plan mode and in-memory plan state when entering a BTW side session so
/btw matches the /new and /resume session-switch guards. Move SetTempDirForTest
into export_test.go so cmd/zero no longer depends on testing. Drop the unused
model.program field. Clarify that plan mode suppresses lifecycle and afterTool
hooks only, while beforeTool still runs for fail-closed vetoes, and pin that
behavior with a regression test.
Block /plan inside /btw, re-sync parent plan on leaveBTW, fall back to
Ask when exitPlanMode has no prior mode, clear plan only after successful
/spec session create, and omit plan_snapshot from session tool events.

Refs Twigpine#854
…load

Fail closed when the workspace root cannot be resolved for editor staging,
use a non-colliding blank-session pathKey sentinel, copy on SetPlan so
enforceSingleInProgress cannot mutate the caller, surface plan-file read
errors from the editor reload path, and tighten regression coverage for
workspace containment, StageForEditor, and plan_snapshot metadata.

Refs Twigpine#854
…mode

Bind plan reads at open with O_NOFOLLOW on Unix, route StageForEditor through
the temp-dir test seam so CI staging privacy checks pass, surface durable plan
reload failures from /btw return and /resume, fix plan_command switch/lint
nits that fail CI, and pin afterTool suppression in plan mode.

Refs Twigpine#854
Final-component O_NOFOLLOW left intermediate directory swaps able to
redirect plan reads outside the storage tree. Open the plans base as
os.Root and read relative to that handle so traversal cannot escape,
and refuse a symlink final component. Add intermediate-symlink and
plain-file regression coverage.

Directory-symlink creation is privileged on many Windows runners, so TestPlanStorageBaseSymlinkRefused skips there. A junction is an unprivileged reparse point and exercises openWindowsBaseDir's OBJ_DONT_REPARSE mapping through WritePlan.

Refs Twigpine#854
Automatic /loop ticks and /goal continuations cannot make progress in
plan mode, so entering /plan holds them and /plan off resumes them
instead of spending turns that cannot implement the plan.
Grants FILE_TRAVERSE on Windows directory handles used as RootDirectory
for NtCreateFile, since relative opens fail with STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED
without SeChangeNotifyPrivilege. Fails the non-Unix/non-Windows write
fallback closed to match the read side, since the prior os.Root-based
path had a check-to-use race and wrote plans that could never be read
back. Wraps errPlanSymlinkWrite around the shared errPlanSymlinkRefusal
sentinel so callers can detect write-side refusals with errors.Is like
the read side. Fixes stale test comments referencing a function that
was never shipped, pins the chmod ordering in the staging-privacy test,
and asserts the error from reloadPlanFromFile instead of discarding it.

…ment

editorStagingDirIsPrivate compares physical paths so a staging directory that
resolves into the workspace or the OS temp dir is refused, but physicalPath
resolved through filepath.EvalSymlinks, which hands a junction straight back:
os.Lstat maps one to ModeIrregular rather than ModeSymlink. A junction needs
no SeCreateSymbolicLinkPrivilege, so it is the reparse point an unprivileged
process can actually plant, and the check the function documents did not hold
on the one platform where that matters.

Resolve through GetFinalPathNameByHandle on Windows instead, which asks the
filesystem what the handle resolved to and so accounts for every reparse type
at once; VOLUME_NAME_DOS also returns long names, subsuming the 8.3 short-name
normalization the comparison already needed. verifyPrivateDirectory now
rejects a reparse point explicitly rather than relying on its !IsDir test
firing by accident, which is why a junctioned staging directory was refused
with "is not a directory".

The Windows staging tests skip wherever directory-symlink creation is
privileged, which is why this went unnoticed; the new ones use the junction
helper the storage tests already rely on. Verified on NTFS: both containment
tests fail before this change and pass after it.

Refs Twigpine#854
Prevent queued messages from auto-launching on turn completion while plan mode is active, requiring explicit exit or submission before running.

Refs Twigpine#854
…DIR test isolation

planSnapshotFromResult already correctly distinguishes nil (absent)
from an empty slice (intentional plan:[] clear), but the docstring
said "absent or empty" which was misleading. Updated the docstring
and added a regression test covering both cases.

Set TMPDIR per subtest in TestStorageRejectsAllSandboxTempRoots so
the second iteration does not inherit the first iteration's value,
which could cause WritePlan to accept a sandbox-writable root on
systems where t.TempDir() is outside /tmp.

Walkthrough

The TUI now supports durable, session-scoped plans and editing through /plan open. Plan updates are saved against stored baselines. Plan mode also affects session switches, BTW conversations, hooks, and automatic continuations.

Changes

Plan mode and durable plan files

Layer / File(s) Summary
Durable plan storage and safe paths
internal/planmode/*, internal/sandbox/scope.go
Plans are stored by workspace and session. Reads and writes check path containment and refuse symlink or reparse-point traversal. Platform-specific implementations and tests cover storage behavior.
Staged editing and conflict handling
internal/planmode/*
Editor copies use private staging files and content baselines. Commits detect concurrent changes, and rejected edits can be preserved for recovery. Tests cover cleanup, locking, and conflicts.
Accepted plan snapshots and publication
internal/agent/*, internal/tools/*, internal/tui/model.go, internal/tui/plan_publication.go
Tool results carry typed plan snapshots. The TUI writes updates against a baseline and applies accepted plans to the tool and panel. Plan-mode tests cover tool availability, hook behavior, and publication outcomes.
/plan commands and editor format
README.md, internal/tui/commands.go, internal/tui/plan_command.go, internal/tui/model.go, internal/tui/*plan*test.go
/plan open launches $VISUAL or $EDITOR on a staged copy. The TUI parses and serializes versioned plan files, reloads edits, and reports failures.
Session and BTW restoration
internal/tui/btw.go, internal/tui/session.go, internal/tui/spec_mode.go, internal/tui/*test.go
Session changes exit Plan mode and clear the previous plan. Resume and BTW flows load the destination or parent plan and report reload errors.
Automatic continuation gating
internal/tui/goal.go, internal/tui/loop.go, internal/tui/model.go, internal/tui/*test.go
Plan mode pauses loops and blocks loop, goal, and queued-message continuations. Exiting Plan mode resumes loops.

Holding this at the contribution gate. This is not a review of the code, which I haven't assessed.

CONTRIBUTING asks that a community pull request be tied to an existing issue carrying the issue-approved label, and says one opened before that "will be closed without review". This PR refs #854, which is a closed pull request rather than an issue, so there is no approved issue behind it. The nearest one I can find is #664, "Expose spec-draft (Plan Mode) as a settable session mode over ACP". That one is approved, but it's scoped to ACP rather than a TUI /plan command and it's assigned to someone else, so it doesn't cover this either.

At +8,699 across 53 files this is also squarely the kind of change AGENTS.md asks to be discussed with maintainers before implementation. The quickest path is an issue describing the /plan command, its lifecycle and the storage outside the workspace, so the design can be agreed there first. If it's approved, this can come back against it; a PR that has already had the design agreed will get a much faster review than one where the design and the code are being judged together.

I've left the decision on whether to close this to the maintainers.

- Skip the storage containment test instead of failing setup when the
  /tmp or /var/tmp fixture roots cannot be created (Android/Termux has
  neither directory).
- Announce loops stopped by /spec and by spec approval, matching the
  notices /new, /resume, and /btw already print.

The durable plan store is outside the workspace and protected correctly (no-follow handles, reparse checks on Windows, sandbox-writable temp roots excluded from both storage and editor staging, so the sandboxed agent cannot reach the durable plan), with a cross-process lock, baseline-hash compare-and-swap, temp-plus-rename, and versioned format marker. The gate semantics are right: plan mode restricts tools and pauses permission prompts, /plan off restores the previous mode and defaults to Ask never Auto, and plan text never bypasses per-tool permission gates. Rejected editor edits preserved for recovery is a thoughtful touch.
