Turn ideas, issues, PRDs, and designs into precise Coding Plans grounded in your codebase, then hand them off to any coding agent.
Platform Tour guides you through all major CodeRabbit features and surfaces. For the detailed documentation on CodeRabbit Plan, follow this link.
CodeRabbit Plan turns your ideas into detailed, project-aware Coding Plans you can review, refine, and hand off to any coding agent. Because every plan is grounded in deep codebase understanding and enriched by your project Knowledge Base, it references the right files, follows your established patterns, and produces agent-ready prompts, not generic outlines.
The fastest way to get started is the CodeRabbit web app. Go to app.coderabbit.ai/plan, describe what you want to build in free-form text, select a repository, and click Create plan. The form also supports file attachments.See the Create a plan guide for the full step-by-step walkthrough.
You can generate Coding Plans directly from your issue tracker. Comment @coderabbitai plan on any issue, or enable auto-planning to generate plans automatically when issues match your rules.

Codebase understanding
Analyzes your repository’s architecture, patterns, and existing code so
every plan fits naturally into how your project is built.
Project context
Draws on related issues, design documents, and accumulated to
ground every plan in your project’s broader context.
Chat with CodeRabbit to refine details, challenge design choices, or request changes. The conversation is collaborative: product owners and other team members can participate too, ensuring the plan reflects the team’s knowledge.

Collaborative Planning
Plans are available for review by engineers and product owners. Team members discuss, challenge design choices, and refine plans together.
Accountability and history
Every plan version is preserved. Track what was planned, when it was planned, and why decisions were made.
Once the plan reflects the team’s decisions, hand off the finalized prompts to your coding agent of choice. The agent receives precise, codebase-aware instructions it can act on immediately.
Agent-ready prompts
Finalized plans are exported as structured, codebase-aware prompts that any coding agent can act on immediately — no reinterpretation required.
Any coding agent
Hand off to Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini, or any other coding agent. The prompt format is agent-agnostic.
