For complex tasks, OpenOri can create execution plans — structured, multi-phase work breakdowns that track progress across your conversation.

​
How it works

When you ask OpenOri to tackle something substantial — a multi-step refactor, a research project, a migration — it can break the work into phases with substeps: 
Help me migrate our API from Express to Hono. Plan it out first.
OpenOri creates a plan with phases like:
  1. Audit current routes — list all Express endpoints, middleware, and patterns
  2. Set up Hono — install dependencies, create the app skeleton
  3. Migrate routes — convert each endpoint to Hono syntax
  4. Update middleware — adapt auth, logging, and error handling
  5. Test and verify — run the test suite, fix regressions
Each phase can have substeps, and OpenOri tracks the status of each one as work progresses.

​
Plan cards

Plans appear inline in your chat as timeline cards. Each card shows:
  • Plan title — what the overall plan is about
  • Phase list — each phase with its status indicator
  • Progress — visual indication of completed, in-progress, and pending phases

Managing plans

​
From conversation

You can manage plans entirely through conversation:
You say…OpenOri does…
”Show me all my plans”Lists every plan with its progress
”What’s the status of the API migration plan?”Shows the specific plan’s phases and progress
”Mark the auth phase as done”Updates the phase status
”Skip the testing phase for now”Sets the phase to skipped
”Delete the old migration plan”Removes it permanently
”Actually, let’s add a deployment phase”Proposes an edit to the plan
Click the ListTodo icon in the activity bar to open the Plans panel. From there you can:
  • View all plans — see every plan across your conversations
  • Click to preview — opens the plan detail view in the right panel
  • Track progress — see which phases are complete at a glance

​
Detail panel

Click any plan in the sidebar list to open its detail view. This shows the full plan with all phases, substeps, and notes.

​
Editing plans

Plans aren’t static. As OpenOri works through each phase, it can:
  • Update phase statuses — mark phases as complete, blocked, or skipped
  • Propose edits — suggest changes to the plan as new information comes to light
You can also ask OpenOri to modify the plan at any time: 
Actually, let's skip the middleware migration for now. Focus on routes first.
Plans are especially useful for long-running tasks that span multiple messages. Even if you close and reopen the conversation, the plan’s state is preserved.

​
When to use plans

Plans work best for:
  • Multi-step refactors — migrating frameworks, restructuring code
  • Research projects — investigating a topic with multiple angles
  • Release checklists — tracking all the steps needed for a deployment
  • Learning paths — working through a tutorial or concept step by step
For simple, single-step tasks, OpenOri handles them directly without creating a plan.
