/install plan-interview
Description
Ensures alignment between user and Claude during feature/spec planning through a structured interview process. Use this skill when the user invokes /plan-int...
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do what it says: interview the user, inspect the repo, and write a plan file under docs/plans. Before installing or invoking it, confirm you are comfortable granting the agent read access to project files (README.md, AGENTS.md, code files) and write access to the repository (it will create docs/plans/plan-*.md). If you prefer review before commits, restrict the agent so it can draft plans but not push or commit them automatically. Also verify the provider-specific AskUser behavior (how prompts/pauses are presented) matches your workflow. There are no requested credentials or hidden network endpoints in the provided materials.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: plan-interview
Version: 1.0.0
The 'plan-interview' skill is a structured requirements-gathering and planning tool for AI agents. It guides the agent through an interview process, codebase exploration, and iterative plan refinement before implementation. The skill uses standard agent capabilities such as reading documentation (README.md, AGENTS.md) and writing plan files to a local directory (docs/plans/). No evidence of malicious intent, data exfiltration, or unauthorized execution was found; the 'auto-start implementation' behavior is consistent with its stated purpose as a development assistant.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name and description (structured interview + plan generation) match the contents of SKILL.md. The skill requests no credentials or external binaries and is instruction-only, which is proportionate to a planning/interview helper.
Instruction Scope
Instructions explicitly tell the agent to run an interview, explore the codebase (re-read AGENTS.md, README.md, identify affected files), iteratively refine a draft, and write the final draft to docs/plans/plan-NNN-<slug>.md. This scope is coherent with planning, but it implies reading repository files and creating new files in the repo — users should be aware and consent to those repository read/write actions.
Install Mechanism
There is no install specification or packaged code; the skill is instruction-only. The SKILL.md shows an npx add command as a user-facing convenience, which is standard and not executed automatically by the skill.
Credentials
The skill declares no required environment variables or credentials and its runtime instructions do not request secrets. It does reference provider-specific tools (AskUser) but does not ask for unrelated credentials.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill does not request system-level persistence. The only persistent effect described is creating plan files under docs/plans in the repository — appropriate for its function but worth confirming before allowing writes.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install plan-interview - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/plan-interview - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
Version History
v1.0.0
- Initial release of the Plan Interview skill.
- Provides a structured upfront interview process before implementation, gathering requirements across technical constraints, scope, risk, and success criteria.
- Dynamically generates and batches thematic questions to ensure actionable specificity for the planned task.
- Calibrates planning depth based on task complexity, with user override option.
- Includes iterative plan drafting and refinement, merging best ideas if competing plans are present.
- Ensures all plans cover defined success criteria, risk assessment, affected areas, test/validation strategy, and open questions.
