Add /ultraresearch-local for structured research combining local codebase analysis with external knowledge via parallel agent swarms. Produces research briefs with triangulation, confidence ratings, and source quality assessment. New command: /ultraresearch-local with modes --quick, --local, --external, --fg. New agents: research-orchestrator (opus), docs-researcher, community-researcher, security-researcher, contrarian-researcher, gemini-bridge (all sonnet). New template: research-brief-template.md. Integration: --research flag in /ultraplan-local accepts pre-built research briefs (up to 3), enriches the interview and exploration phases. Planning orchestrator cross-references brief findings during synthesis. Design principle: Context Engineering — right information to right agent at right time. Research briefs are structured artifacts in the pipeline: ultraresearch → brief → ultraplan --research → plan → ultraexecute. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# ultraplan-local
|
|
|
|
Deep implementation planning and research with interview, specialized agent swarms, external research, adversarial review, session decomposition, disciplined execution, and headless support. A local alternative to Anthropic's Ultraplan.
|
|
|
|
**Design principle: Context Engineering** — build the right context by orchestrating specialized agents. Each step in the pipeline (research -> plan -> execute) produces a structured artifact that the next step consumes.
|
|
|
|
## Commands
|
|
|
|
| Command | Description | Model |
|
|
|---------|-------------|-------|
|
|
| `/ultraresearch-local` | Research — deep local + external research, produces structured brief | opus |
|
|
| `/ultraplan-local` | Plan — interview, explore, plan, review | opus |
|
|
| `/ultraexecute-local` | Execute — disciplined plan/session-spec executor with failure recovery | opus |
|
|
|
|
### /ultraresearch-local modes
|
|
|
|
| Flag | Behavior |
|
|
|------|----------|
|
|
| _(default)_ | Interview + background research (local + external) + synthesis + brief |
|
|
| `--quick` | Interview (short) + inline research (no agent swarm) |
|
|
| `--local` | Only codebase analysis agents (skip external + Gemini) |
|
|
| `--external` | Only external research agents (skip codebase analysis) |
|
|
| `--fg` | All phases in foreground (blocking) |
|
|
|
|
Flags can be combined: `--local --fg`, `--external --quick`.
|
|
|
|
### /ultraplan-local modes
|
|
|
|
| Flag | Behavior |
|
|
|------|----------|
|
|
| _(default)_ | Interview + background planning (non-blocking) |
|
|
| `--spec <path>` | Skip interview, use provided spec |
|
|
| `--research <brief> [brief2]` | Enrich planning with pre-built research brief(s) |
|
|
| `--fg` | All phases in foreground (blocking) |
|
|
| `--quick` | Interview + plan directly (no agent swarm) |
|
|
| `--export <pr\|issue\|markdown\|headless> <plan>` | Generate shareable output from existing plan |
|
|
| `--decompose <plan>` | Split plan into self-contained headless sessions |
|
|
|
|
`--research` can combine with `--spec`, `--fg`, and `--quick`.
|
|
|
|
### /ultraexecute-local modes
|
|
|
|
| Flag | Behavior |
|
|
|------|----------|
|
|
| _(default)_ | Execute plan — auto-detects Execution Strategy for multi-session |
|
|
| `--resume` | Resume from last progress checkpoint |
|
|
| `--dry-run` | Validate plan structure without executing |
|
|
| `--step N` | Execute only step N |
|
|
| `--fg` | Force foreground — run all steps sequentially, ignore Execution Strategy |
|
|
| `--session N` | Execute only session N from plan's Execution Strategy |
|
|
|
|

## Architecture
|
|
|
|
**Research:** 8-phase workflow: Parse mode -> Interview -> Background transition -> Parallel research (5 local + 4 external + 1 bridge) -> Follow-ups -> Triangulation -> Synthesis + brief -> Stats.
|
|
|
|
**Plan:** 12-phase workflow: Parse mode -> Interview -> Background transition -> Codebase sizing -> Spec review -> Parallel exploration (6-8 agents) -> Deep-dives -> Synthesis -> Planning -> Adversarial review -> Present/refine -> Handoff.
|
|
|
|
**Decompose:** Parse plan -> Analyze step dependencies -> Group into sessions -> Identify parallel waves -> Generate session specs + dependency graph + launch script.
|
|
|
|
**Execute:** Parse plan -> Detect Execution Strategy -> Single-session (step loop) or multi-session (parallel waves via `claude -p`) -> Verification -> Report.
|
|
|
|
**Pipeline:** Research briefs feed into planning via `--research`. The planning orchestrator uses brief context to enrich exploration and skip redundant research.
