Modes
Vesper Code currently has one normal working mode and one planning toggle.
- Normal - the default coding workflow
- Plan - planning only, without file edits
Normal
Normal mode is what you get when you start vesper:
- Spawns file pickers and code searchers to gather context
- Uses the editor agent for code changes
- Spawns thinker for complex problems
- Runs code review after changes
- Validates with typechecks and tests
Plan
Planning mode. No file writes.
- Gathers context about your codebase
- Asks clarifying questions when needed
- Outputs a concrete plan/spec
- Includes requirements, constraints, and relevant files
Use this to scope out work before implementing, or to discuss approaches without making changes.
Toggle it with:
/plan
Run /plan again to return to normal mode.
