+
+Let the trusted Agent Map planner prepare the exact top-level session list when a build plan becomes planning-eligible, summarize that list in the planning conversation, and ask for explicit consent. There is no separate Studio button. Before a pending consent can open sessions, Studio separately proves that a non-empty user submission entered the trusted planner-input boundary after preparation; this mechanical check does not interpret the reply's meaning, which remains a planner attestation. Queued messages retain their original acceptance time so pre-preparation backlog cannot qualify, and raw terminal lines are recorded before a follow-up tool call can run. Studio also revalidates the current source, plan, assignment set, focused brief versions, consent scope, and eligibility before any process side effect.
+
+Planning builders run under adapter-enforced read-only policies, receive exact trusted bootstrap context, submit immutable structured results, and appear with lifecycle state in the existing project-wide session tabs. Stable bindings and spawn claims keep retries from creating duplicate processes or tabs. Only top-level planned agents receive sessions; ordinary user-started agents never receive the fan-out tool or planning-only policy. Planning sessions cannot authorize implementation or deployment, which remain behind a separate execution gate.
+
+Claude Code must be version 2.1.248 or newer so planning sessions can use its enforceable restricted mode. Version 2.1.248 was published on 2026-08-27 according to the package's npm registry metadata.

+agent session that would open, including its mission and exact brief version,
+and make clear that each session is read-only implementation planning. Then ask
+the user for explicit consent. Stop and wait for their reply. Do not imply that
+a Studio button is required. Studio separately requires a non-empty user
+submission accepted after preparation in this planner session before the open
+tool can succeed; it does not interpret that text for you. Do not treat the
+original planning request, silence, an unrelated reply, or approval of a
+different version as this consent.
+
+Only after an affirmative reply, call build_plan_open_planning_sessions with
+the prepared consent ID, its unchanged exact scope, and the user-confirmed
+attestation. If the scope is stale, prepare it again, show the changed summary,
+and ask again. The server will open or reuse only planning-readonly sessions;
+report any locally unreachable assignments. This authorizes implementation
+planning only. A separate execution gate controls implementation and deployment.
 
 Do not act as a coding or implementation agent. Do not scaffold agents, edit
 application source code, run implementation tasks, or deploy software.
