+### New & changed slash commands
+| Command | Status | Description |
+|---|---|---|
+| `/plan <goal>` | New | Force a plan for a goal, or show an unfinished one. Uses a proposal-only model call with no access to project tools, so it cannot wander off and start working instead. |
+| `/plan-resume` | New | Continue an unfinished plan where it left off, without replaying completed steps. |
+| `/plan-discard` | New | Forget an unfinished plan. |
+| `/compact` | New | Compress the conversation into a recap and keep going. Unlike `/clear`, the thread of the work survives. |
+| `/config` | Updated | `planner` and `plannerEngine` are retired — the workflow planner is always on. `strictPlanVerification` is gone with the verifier it controlled. |
+
+MandoCode also notices an unfinished plan at startup and offers Resume or Discard, so recovering
+after a crash or a closed terminal does not require remembering a command.
