A plan is Replo’s checklist for a piece of work: the steps it intends to take, written down before it starts. The Plans app is where those plans live. You can browse every plan in your project, read and edit them, create your own, and hand a plan to Replo to build, watching it check off steps as it goes. You can reach Plans from the + in the tab bar or the Cmd+K menu.

​
Browse your plans

Plans Home lists every plan in your project. Switch between a List view and an Icon view, search by title or filename, and open any plan to read it. Plans you have not opened yet are marked with a New badge, and each shows when it was last modified.

​
Where plans come from

Plans arrive two ways:
  • Replo drafts one. For anything beyond a small change, Replo writes a plan before it starts so you can see its approach first. You can also ask for one directly in chat.
  • You create one. Use New plan to either ask Replo to draft a plan from a prompt, or start a blank plan and write it yourself.
To have Replo draft one, describe the work in chat: 
Draft a plan to add a customer reviews section and an FAQ to my homepage.
A blank plan opens to a fresh page. Give it a title, then jot the steps as todos. For example, a from-scratch plan to add social proof to your store might look like: 
Title: Add a customer reviews section to the homepage

Todos:
- Add a "What cat parents are saying" section below the hero
- Include three reviews with names, star ratings, and a photo
- Use the cream and green brand colors
- Link to the section from the homepage navigation
When it is ready, click Build and Replo works through your steps.

​
Build a plan

A plan is an editable document, not a static list, so before you build you can correct Replo’s intended approach: reword a step, add a missing one, or delete something you do not want. Catching a wrong turn in the plan is far cheaper than fixing it after Replo has built the wrong thing. When a plan looks right, hand it to Replo with the Build button in the header. Replo picks up the plan and carries it out, checking off the todos as it completes them, and the work streams into the chat thread. The Build button reflects where the plan is in its lifecycle:
  • Build: the plan is a draft (or you have edited it since the last build). Click to start.
  • Pause: a build is running. Pause it to edit the plan or send a follow-up in chat, then build again.
  • Built: the most recent build finished. Add or edit a step and it flips back to Build so you can re-run with your changes.
When a build finishes, the header shows the Built badge and the completed steps are checked off, while the chat wraps up with a summary of everything that shipped.
