Break a spec into stories and tasks
Get user stories and tasks with acceptance criteria and file-level changes.
/planr:plan SPEC-001$plan SPEC-001@planr-plan SPEC-001With the OpenPlanr plugin for Codex, use $planr:plan.
Cursor applies the planr-plan rule when you mention it in chat.
Why this works
Plan reads the saved spec, so every story keeps its acceptance criteria and every task names its files, its dependencies, and the checks that prove it is done. It stops after the plan and never starts building on its own.
