The Project Plan is living documentation SteerCode uses to track goals, constraints, and next steps. Plan Mode can update it; Code Mode uses it as guidance during implementation.
What to include
- Project guidelines: priorities, trade-offs, and decision rules
- User personas & jobs-to-be-done
- Design direction: colors, type, layout rules, brand voice
- Coding conventions: naming, formatting, folder structure
- Integrations & APIs: links to docs, keys handling strategy
- Security & compliance: data handling, auth, PII constraints
- Release plan: milestones, acceptance criteria, test strategy
Start small. A few clear bullets dramatically improve generations. Keep it
fresh as your project evolves.
How to work with the Plan
Open the Plan tab
Review current goals, assumptions, and open tasks.
Add or edit instructions
Capture constraints, do/don’t lists, and design notes in your own words.
Use Plan Mode to refine
Ask the AI to propose milestones or a step-by-step implementation plan. When
ready, switch to Code Mode to execute.
The Plan is not code. It guides the coding agent and improves reliability
across edits.
