Planning joins the shell: one product, one sign-on, the latest models
PFactory's planning portal picks up the fleet-wide command palette, needs-you badge, and silent single sign-on — and moves onto Claude Opus 4.8. A one-page showcase is ready to download.
PFactory turns an idea into a governed, deployment-aware plan, with a human approval gate in front of every agent. This round of work connected it to the rest of the family and moved it onto the current model lineup.
Part of one product now
The planning portal is no longer an island:
- A portal switcher in the top bar moves you between Plan, Build, Test, and Cockpit as one product.
- A global command palette — Cmd-K — searches every portal’s work, not just PFactory’s, and jumps straight to it.
- A fleet “needs you” badge shows how many tasks across the whole factory are waiting on a human, right next to the switcher.
- Silent single sign-on: arriving from a sibling portal signs you in without a second login.
On the latest models
Planning now runs on the current model lineup — defaulting to Claude Opus 4.8, with Claude Sonnet 5 and the current OpenAI, Google, and GitHub models available per stage.
Still governed, still deployment-aware
None of the guardrails changed: every agent-produced plan still waits for human approval before it can emit and hand off, plans still read the existing codebase for brownfield work, and they still carry a real deployment contract that the build and test stages inherit.

The path forward
Next: deeper code-aware planning, richer deployment contracts, and an audit trail that makes every plan traceable from requirement to reviewed pull request.
