Publisher documentation
Hosted service winding down
Plandex Cloud; self-hosted code assessed separately: The publisher's README says Plandex Cloud is winding down and no longer accepts new users. It separately documents local and self-hosted operation.
The notice concerns the hosted service. It does not establish that the code repository is archived or abandoned, a final service closure date, or current maintenance and security support for self-hosted installations; those remain unassessed here.
The review date is an ASE reminder, not an upstream guarantee.

About Plandex
Plandex is a terminal-based AI development tool that plans and executes large coding tasks spanning many steps and dozens of files. It handles up to 2 million tokens of context directly and indexes much larger directories with tree-sitter project maps, keeps AI changes in a cumulative diff review sandbox until you accept them, controls command execution for easy rollback, and combines models from several providers. A local self-hosted mode is available.
Plandex is listed in this index written primarily in Go, with 16k stars on GitHub. Its latest recorded repository push was in October 2025; that is not an ASE editorial review date.
