Research the codebase and create a concise implementation plan in one step. Use for small, focused changes where you want to go straight from research to a ready-to-implement plan without back-and-forth. For larger or more complex changes, use /research-codebase followed by /create-plan instead.

Research the codebase, then write a concise plan. No interactive Q&A — just research and output.

For code file exploration, prefer smart-explore tools (4-18x token savings):
| Tool | Use instead of |
|---|---|
smart_search(query, path) — discover files + symbols in one call | Glob + Grep discovery loop |
smart_outline(file_path) — structural skeleton (~1-2k tokens) | Read on files > 100 lines |
smart_unfold(file_path, symbol_name) — one symbol's full source | Read on large files for one function |
Rule: Use Read only for files < 100 lines or non-code files (markdown, JSON, config).
For code files > 100 lines, prefer smart_outline + smart_unfold over Read.
For small files, config, or markdown: use Read directly.
