name: pre-flight-review description: Pre-flight plan review for code modification tasks. Review plan before writing any code.
Pre-Flight Plan Review
Before writing or modifying code, conduct a structured review of the implementation plan.
Review Checklist
- Scope — Changes are confined to the specified files/directories. No scope creep.
- Acceptance criteria — Every AC is addressed by a specific, traceable change.
- Minimal footprint — Only change what the task requires. No speculative additions.
- Tests first — Tests are written before implementation (TDD). Red before green.
- No regressions — Existing behavior is preserved. Changed behavior is intentional and traced to an AC.
- Conventions — Implementation follows existing project patterns (naming, style, architecture).
- Accessibility — UI changes consider semantic HTML, ARIA, keyboard nav from the start.
Output
State clearly:
- Plan summary (what will change and why)
- Any risks or unknowns
- Confirmed readiness to proceed
