# Plan mode

> Use plan mode to iterate on ideas, refine assumptions, and keep AI work grounded in the planning context.

Plan mode is the part of the AI workflow where an idea turns into a working planning path. It helps you move from a prompt or rough question toward a set of structured next steps.

## What plan mode should help with

* breaking a large planning task into smaller actions
* clarifying the sequence of work
* surfacing assumptions before edits are made
* helping teams review a proposed approach before it becomes part of the model

## Why this matters

AI is most useful when it improves decision quality, not just speed. Plan mode creates a pause between suggestion and execution so teams can review the shape of the work first.

## Use it for structured iteration

Plan mode is especially useful when a task affects multiple parts of the workspace, such as models, boards, scenarios, or connected sources at once.
