rename slate ralplan to slate plan

Objective: Rename the active Slate planning skill from slate-ralplan to slate-plan, complete only when the source rule and reusable template use the new name, dependent active guidance points to slate-plan, generated skill output is synced so .agents/skills/slate-plan exists and .agents/skills/slate-ralplan does not, focused active-surface searches are clean, a --template slate-plan scratchpad smoke proves the renamed template works, pnpm lint:fix passes, and this plan passes check-complete.

Goal plan: docs/plans/2026-05-24-rename-slate-plan.md

Completion threshold:

  • Source rule is .agents/rules/slate-plan.mdc; template is docs/plans/templates/slate-plan.md; active source/generated references use slate-plan / Slate Plan; old active skill directory is absent; smoke, lint, and plan checker pass.

Verification surface:

  • find path checks, focused rg checks over .agents, generated skills, templates, and AGENTS.md, pnpm install, node --check helpers, generated scratchpad smoke with --template slate-plan, expected incomplete scratchpad rejection, pnpm lint:fix, and final node .agents/rules/goal/scripts/check-complete.mjs docs/plans/2026-05-24-rename-slate-plan.md.

Constraints:

  • Preserve the planning/review boundary; do not edit Slate v2 implementation files; do not rename unrelated historical docs/plans files unless needed for active control-surface cleanup; do not hand-edit generated SKILL.md.

Boundaries:

  • Allowed files: .agents/rules/slate-ralplan.mdc to .agents/rules/slate-plan.mdc, docs/plans/templates/slate-ralplan.md to docs/plans/templates/slate-plan.md, active rule references, generated output from pnpm install, and this goal plan.

Blocked condition:

  • Block only if skiller cannot generate .agents/skills/slate-plan from the renamed source rule or if old active skill references remain required by another live rule.

Completion rule:

  • Do not call update_goal(status: complete) while any required checklist item remains unchecked. If an item does not apply, check it and add N/A: <reason>.
  • Do not call update_goal(status: complete) until the named verification evidence is recorded below and node .agents/rules/goal/scripts/check-complete.mjs docs/plans/2026-05-24-rename-slate-plan.md passes.
  • Do not create hook state or active goal state for this goal. This file plus the active goal are the durable state.

Required checklist:

  • Skill analysis completed before edits; named skills and clearly applicable owner skills loaded/announced.
  • get_goal checked; create_goal called only when no active goal existed, or the active matching goal was recorded.
  • Objective includes outcome, completion threshold, verification surface, constraints, boundaries, and blocked condition.
  • Source of truth read before edits.
  • learnings-researcher / docs/solutions checked, or marked N/A with reason. N/A: skill/rule rename, not product behavior reuse.
  • This docs/plans goal plan created before substantive edits.
  • TDD used before behavior changes or bug fixes with a sane test surface, or marked N/A with reason. N/A: no runtime behavior.
  • Browser proof captured for browser-surface changes, or marked N/A with reason. N/A: no browser surface.
  • PR check run before PR create/update, or marked N/A with reason. N/A: no PR requested.
  • Final verification evidence recorded below.
  • node .agents/rules/goal/scripts/check-complete.mjs docs/plans/2026-05-24-rename-slate-plan.md passes after final evidence is recorded.
  • ce-compound evaluated after non-trivial verified work. N/A: the durable artifact is the rule/template rename itself.
  • Reboot status is current.
  • Every required checklist item above is checked or marked N/A with reason before goal completion.

Findings:

  • Current active control surfaces still use slate-ralplan; the target name is shorter and matches docs/plans.
  • Historical plan filenames are not active skill control surfaces and do not need renaming for this pass.

Decisions and tradeoffs:

  • Perform a hard active-surface rename to slate-plan, but avoid rewriting old dated historical plan filenames unless they block the active checks.

Timeline:

  • 2026-05-24T16:25:39.394Z Goal plan created.
  • 2026-05-24T18:25:39+02:00 Filled objective, threshold, constraints, and initial rename decision before editing source files.
  • 2026-05-24T18:26:20+02:00 Renamed .agents/rules/slate-ralplan.mdc to .agents/rules/slate-plan.mdc and docs/plans/templates/slate-ralplan.md to docs/plans/templates/slate-plan.md.
  • 2026-05-24T18:26:45+02:00 Rewrote active source references from slate-ralplan / Slate Ralplan to slate-plan / Slate Plan, including dependent rule references and template helper examples.
  • 2026-05-24T18:27:20+02:00 pnpm install synced generated skill output; .agents/skills/slate-plan/SKILL.md exists and old generated skill directory is absent.
  • 2026-05-24T18:28:00+02:00 Ran script syntax, old/new path checks, --template slate-plan smoke render, incomplete smoke rejection, stale active reference search, and smoke cleanup.
  • 2026-05-24T18:28:30+02:00 pnpm lint:fix passed with no fixes applied.

Verification evidence:

  • pnpm install -> passed; skiller apply completed successfully.
  • Generated skill check -> .agents/skills/slate-plan/SKILL.md exists with name: slate-plan and source .agents/rules/slate-plan.mdc; old .agents/skills/slate-ralplan is absent.
  • Path checks -> .agents/rules/slate-plan.mdc and docs/plans/templates/slate-plan.md exist; old source/template paths are absent.
  • node --check passed for create-goal-scratchpad.mjs, create-goal-template.mjs, and check-complete.mjs.
  • node .agents/rules/goal/scripts/create-goal-scratchpad.mjs --template slate-plan --title "smoke slate plan template" --path docs/plans/2026-05-24-smoke-slate-plan-template.md -> generated a Slate Plan scratchpad.
  • Smoke rg checks found Slate Plan lane state:, slate_plan_lane_status: pending, and Final completion gates: in the generated scratchpad.
  • node .agents/rules/goal/scripts/check-complete.mjs docs/plans/2026-05-24-smoke-slate-plan-template.md -> rejected the unfilled smoke plan as expected; smoke file removed.
  • Focused stale active-reference search over .agents, generated AGENTS.md, and docs/plans/templates -> no slate-ralplan, Slate Ralplan, or ralplan_lane_status matches.
  • pnpm lint:fix -> passed; Checked 3423 files in 7s. No fixes applied.
  • node .agents/rules/goal/scripts/check-complete.mjs docs/plans/2026-05-24-rename-slate-plan.md -> passed with [goal] complete: docs/plans/2026-05-24-rename-slate-plan.md.
