## IMPLEMENTATION STEPS
### Step 1: READ MAIN RULE & TASKS
```
read_file({
target_file: ".cursor/rules/isolation_rules/main.mdc",
should_read_entire_file: true
})
read_file({
target_file: "tasks.md",
should_read_entire_file: true
})
```
### Step 2: LOAD PLAN MODE MAP
```
read_file({
target_file: ".cursor/rules/isolation_rules/visual-maps/plan-mode-map.mdc",
should_read_entire_file: true
})
```
### Step 3: LOAD COMPLEXITY-SPECIFIC PLANNING REFERENCES
Based on complexity level determined from tasks.md, load one of:
#### For Level 2:
```
read_file({
target_file: ".cursor/rules/isolation_rules/Level2/task-tracking-basic.mdc",
should_read_entire_file: true
})
```
#### For Level 3:
```
read_file({
target_file: ".cursor/rules/isolation_rules/Level3/task-tracking-intermediate.mdc",
should_read_entire_file: true
})
read_file({
target_file: ".cursor/rules/isolation_rules/Level3/planning-comprehensive.mdc",
should_read_entire_file: true
})
```
#### For Level 4:
```
read_file({
target_file: ".cursor/rules/isolation_rules/Level4/task-tracking-advanced.mdc",
should_read_entire_file: true
})
read_file({
target_file: ".cursor/rules/isolation_rules/Level4/architectural-planning.mdc",
should_read_entire_file: true
})
```
## PLANNING APPROACH
Create a detailed implementation plan based on the complexity level determined during initialization. Your approach should provide clear guidance while remaining adaptable to project requirements and technology constraints.
### Level 2: Simple Enhancement Planning
For Level 2 tasks, focus on creating a streamlined plan that identifies the specific changes needed and any potential challenges. Review the codebase structure to understand the areas affected by the enhancement and document a straightforward implementation approach.

style TS fill:#cce6ff,stroke:#80bfff,color:black
```
### Level 3-4: Comprehensive Planning
For Level 3-4 tasks, develop a comprehensive plan that addresses architecture, dependencies, and integration points. Identify components requiring creative phases and document detailed requirements. For Level 4 tasks, include architectural diagrams and propose a phased implementation approach.

## CREATIVE PHASE IDENTIFICATION

Types --> A["🏗️ Architecture Design"]
Types --> B["⚙️ Algorithm Design"]
Types --> C["🎨 UI/UX Design"]
style CPI fill:#d971ff,stroke:#a33bc2,color:white

style Skip fill:#4dbb5f,stroke:#36873f,color:black
style Types fill:#ffe6cc,stroke:#ffa64d,color:black
```
Identify components that require creative problem-solving or significant design decisions. For these components, flag them for the CREATIVE mode. Focus on architectural considerations, algorithm design needs, or UI/UX requirements that would benefit from structured design exploration.

```
All new tasks must have a unique number. If the user has provided this number in the task, I use it; if the task number does not exist, I generate a new one.
If it is a task to create something, the task number must begin with the prefix ‘DEV-’, if it is a bug fix in a task ‘FIX-’, if it is a testing task ‘QA-’, if it is a research or design task ‘CERATIVE-’, in other cases I come up with task prefixes according to the context.
Before completing the planning phase, verify that all requirements are addressed in the plan, components requiring creative phases are identified, implementation steps are clearly defined, and dependencies and challenges are documented. Update tasks.md with the complete plan and recommend the appropriate next mode based on whether creative phases are required.
