ce-plan has no numeric length ceiling. references/plan-sections.md says a deep plan "earns length through coverage", and no reference in skills/ce-plan/ sets a cap (checked at 4fbabcd: grep -rniE '200 lines|max(imum)? (plan )?length|line (cap|limit|budget)' skills/ce-plan/ → no hits).
Observed: in one long session (Aug 27–29), 7 of 18 plans exceeded 200 lines, even though the repo's CLAUDE.md caps plans for unbuilt work at 200 lines. The skill never reads that rule, so the cap only held when a human caught it.
Request: a configurable max plan length (e.g. plan_max_lines in .compound-engineering/config.yaml), or have intake surface repo-level plan rules before Phase 5 drafting.
