About
planning-tools is a plugin bundle for AI coding tools published by Dr. Oliver Borchers. Marketplaces we read that list it: 1 (Community GitHub marketplaces). We first saw it on 2026-10-31 and have recorded no change since. As of our marketplace pass on 2026-11-01.
Manage Claude Code's plan-mode artifacts, author multi-phase master planning documents, walk through open questions from any source (master plan, scope report, or the conversation itself), and synthesize dense progress entries to markdown / Linear / GitHub. Provides /plan-context (pre-load with optional ticket fetch), /plan-master (draft with optional ticket fetch), /plan-open-questions (interactive walkthrough with a 4-rung source ladder and source-aware apply), /plan-verify (audit), /plan-tick (auto-tick provenly-achieved phases), /plan-progress (per-branch progress entry with SHA-based idempotency), and /plan-delete (per-session cleanup). Integer-only phases, no sizing, plain-language chat output, every ticket and ADR named not just numbered, project-agnostic.

Want this mark on your plugin in our catalog?
Prove you maintain it with a file in its repository, a file on your domain or a DNS record, and you can show this mark on the card, with live banners for your site and README. How verification works
You also get alerts when a marketplace lists it, drops it, changes its verified mark or what it asks for, and its remote endpoint goes on monitoring as a web service.
Data comes from public marketplace files in GitHub repositories of their authors. Figures come from our own regular passes over the marketplaces, last read on . We publish no contact details for plugin publishers.
