Before ANY tool calls, display this banner:

Then proceed to Step 1.

/pbr:config — Configure Plan-Build-Run

Overview

Reads and writes .planning/config.json. Interactive configuration with AskUserQuestion.

References

• references/config-reference.md — Full config.json schema (54 fields, 16 feature toggles, validation rules)
• references/model-profiles.md — Model selection guide for agent spawning

Flow

1. Load Current Config

Read .planning/config.json. If it doesn't exist, display:

╔══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
║  ERROR                                                       ║
╚══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝

No Plan-Build-Run project found.

**To fix:** Run `/pbr:begin` first.

2. Parse Arguments

If $ARGUMENTS is provided, handle direct setting:

• depth quick|standard|comprehensive — set depth directly
• model <agent> <model> — set model for specific agent (e.g., model executor sonnet)
• model-profile quality|balanced|budget|adaptive — set all models at once using a preset
• gate <gate-name> on|off — toggle a gate
• feature <feature-name> on|off — toggle a feature (e.g., feature auto_continue on). When the user specifies a feature name without the features. prefix, automatically prepend features. before writing to config.
• git branching none|phase|milestone|disabled — set branching strategy
• git mode disabled — disable git integration entirely
• show — display current config (default when no args)

3. Interactive Mode (no arguments or just show)

Display current configuration in a readable format:

Spinner Tips: (none configured — using defaults)

Then present the configuration menu using the settings-category-select pattern (see skills/shared/gate-prompts.md):

Use AskUserQuestion: question: "What would you like to configure?" header: "Configure" options: - label: "Depth" description: "quick/standard/comprehensive" - label: "Model profile" description: "quality/balanced/budget/adaptive" - label: "Features" description: "Toggle workflow features, gates, status line" - label: "Git settings" description: "branching strategy, commit mode" - label: "Save as defaults" description: "Save current config as user-level defaults for new projects" multiSelect: false

Note: The original 7 categories are condensed to 5. "Models" (per-agent) is accessible through "Model profile" with a follow-up option. "Gates", "Parallelization", and "Status Line" are grouped under "Features". "Save as defaults" exports to ~/.claude/pbr-defaults.json.

Follow-up based on selection:

If user selects "Depth": Use AskUserQuestion: question: "Select workflow depth" header: "Depth" options: - label: "Quick" description: "Budget mode: skip research/plan-check/verifier, 2 scan mappers, ~1-3 fewer spawns per phase" - label: "Standard" description: "Balanced mode: conditional research, full plan-check and verification, 4 scan mappers (default)" - label: "Comprehensive" description: "Thorough mode: always research, always verify, inline verification, 4 scan mappers" multiSelect: false

After setting depth, the profile is automatically resolved. Show the user the effective settings: "Depth set to {value}. Effective profile:" Then display the profile summary (research, plan-check, verify, scan mappers, debug rounds, inline verify).

To resolve the profile, run: node ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/pbr-tools.js config resolve-depth

If the user wants to override a specific profile setting, they can set depth_profiles.{depth}.{key} directly. For example: to use quick mode but keep plan-checking, the user would set depth to quick and then override: /pbr:config -> Features -> Plan checking -> Enable This writes depth_profiles.quick.features.plan_checking: true to config.json.

If user selects "Model profile": Use the model-profile-select pattern: Use AskUserQuestion: question: "Select model profile" header: "Profile" options: - label: "Quality" description: "opus for all agents (highest cost)" - label: "Balanced" description: "sonnet/inherit mix (default)" - label: "Budget" description: "haiku for all agents (lowest cost)" - label: "Adaptive" description: "sonnet planning, haiku execution" multiSelect: false

If user asks for per-agent model selection (typed "models" or "per-agent"), present individual agent selection as plain text: list the agents and ask which one to change, then ask for the model. This is a freeform flow because agent names are dynamic.

If user selects "Features": List all features and gates with current status, then use the toggle-confirm pattern for each change. Feature name normalization: When toggling a feature, if the user specifies a bare name (e.g., inline_verify), normalize it to features.inline_verify before writing to config. All feature flags live under the features.* namespace in config.json. Use AskUserQuestion: question: "Enable {feature_name}?" header: "Toggle" options: - label: "Enable" description: "Turn this feature on" - label: "Disable" description: "Turn this feature off" multiSelect: false

Repeat for each feature the user wants to change. Show updated status after each toggle.

If user selects "Git settings": Use AskUserQuestion: question: "Select branching strategy" header: "Branching" options: - label: "None" description: "All work on current branch" - label: "Phase" description: "New branch per phase" - label: "Milestone" description: "New branch per milestone" - label: "Disabled" description: "No git integration" multiSelect: false

If user selects "Save as defaults": Save current project config as user-level defaults for future projects:

node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/pbr-tools.js" config save-defaults

Display: "Saved your preferences to ~/.claude/pbr-defaults.json. New projects created with /pbr:setup will use these as starting values."

If user types something else (freeform): interpret as a direct setting command and handle via Step 2 argument parsing logic.

4. Apply Changes

Update config.json with new values. Show what changed with a branded completion:

╔══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
║  PLAN-BUILD-RUN ► CONFIG UPDATED ✓                           ║
╚══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝

Updated:
  depth: standard → quick
  models.executor: inherit → sonnet



╔══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
║  ▶ NEXT UP                                                   ║

**Continue your workflow** — settings saved

`/pbr:status`

<sub>`/clear` first → fresh context window</sub>



**Also available:**
- `/pbr:continue` — execute next logical step
- `/pbr:config` — change more settings

Config Schema

See skills/begin/templates/config.json.tmpl for the full schema with defaults.

Version Migration

If config version is older than current (2), run migration:

• v1 → v2: Add missing fields with defaults, rename model_profile → per-agent models object

Model Profile Presets

The model-profile command sets all agent models at once:

Profile	researcher	planner	executor	verifier	int-checker	debugger	mapper	synthesizer
quality	opus	opus	opus	opus	sonnet	opus	sonnet	sonnet
balanced	sonnet	inherit	inherit	sonnet	sonnet	inherit	sonnet	haiku
budget	haiku	haiku	haiku	haiku	haiku	haiku	haiku	haiku
adaptive	sonnet	sonnet	inherit	sonnet	haiku	inherit	haiku	haiku

balanced is the default and matches the initial config template. adaptive front-loads intelligence in research/planning and uses lighter models for mechanical work.

Feature Reference

Feature	Key	Default	Description
Auto-continue	features.auto_continue	false	Automatically spawn continuation agents without user prompt
Auto-advance	features.auto_advance	false	Chain build→review→plan automatically in autonomous mode
Team discussions	features.team_discussions	false	Enable team-based discussion workflows

Team boundaries: Teams are NEVER used for execution, planning, or verification. Teams are only for discussion and brainstorming workflows. All execution, planning, and verification use single-agent Task() spawns with proper subagent types.

Validation

• depth must be one of: quick, standard, comprehensive
• models.* must be one of: sonnet, inherit, haiku, opus
• context_strategy must be one of: aggressive, balanced, minimal
• git.branching must be one of: none, phase, milestone, disabled
• git.mode must be one of: enabled, disabled. When disabled, no git commands are run (no commits, no branching). Useful for prototyping or non-git projects.
• Boolean fields must be true/false
