The Baz Planner solution brief
A five-page brief for engineering leaders: what the rework tax costs, how Planner reviews the plan before the code exists, and how it fits the coding agents and source control you already run.
One document to circulate internally.
Everything a team needs to evaluate plan-first review, in the order the argument is usually made: the problem, the product, the fit, and the proof.
The rework tax, priced
The 50.2% correction-loop baseline and the cost curve, measured across 59,860 PRs from May to July 2026.
What Baz Planner is
The gate between intent and implementation: design review before coding and a risk matrix that blocks unsafe paths.
The integration map
A flow diagram showing where Planner sits: Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex generating code, GitHub, GitLab, or Azure DevOps carrying the PR.
How to use it
Install steps for each platform and a planning session end to end, from /baz:plan-with-baz to an approved plan.
Security and hosting
The least-privilege permission model, SOC 2 posture, and private hosting options inside your VPC or fully self-hosted.
Proof in production
Customer results, including up to 65% less rework, measured by revert and hotfix PRs after merge.
Where Planner sits in the flow.
From intent to merge, one diagram.
The brief traces a change from a ticket or an agent prompt through Baz Planner, into code generation, and out through the pull request in GitHub, GitLab, or Azure DevOps, so you can see exactly where the gate sits before you roll it out.
