Yet in v0, I only see `Be Concise` a built in instruction (see screenshot). Is this intentional?  Pauline P. Narvas (@pawlean) · 2026-04-07 Great find! Thanks for reporting, Nico. I'll share with the team and find out why plan mode isn't working :slight_smile: As a workaround, you can create a custom instruction that achieves similar behavior: - Click the *+* button in the prompt bar - Select *New Instruction* - Title: `Plan Mode` - Rule: `Before implementing any code changes, create a detailed plan outlining the approach, steps, and potential challenges. Ask for approval before proceeding with implementation.` Hope that helps! Nico (@nbbaier) · 2026-04-09 · ♥ 1 [quote="Pauline P.

Ask for approval before proceeding with implementation. [/quote] Thanks for the prompt! I’ll try that.
