Branch: fix/cli/plan-status-output-panels
Commit Message: fix(cli): add spec-required multi-panel output to agents plan status command
Milestone: None (backlog)
Parent Epic: #3374

Summary

The agents plan status command uses a generic _print_lifecycle_plan() helper that shows a single plan details panel. The specification requires five distinct panels: Plan Status, Progress, Timing, Execution Detail, and Cost.

What Was Tested

Reviewed src/cleveragents/cli/commands/plan.py, the plan_status() function (line 2216) and _print_lifecycle_plan() helper (line 1326), and compared against the specification's Example 1 workflow (spec lines 36709–36748).

Expected Behavior (from spec)

The spec (lines 36709–36748) requires five panels:

╭─ Plan Status ───────────────────────────╮
│ Plan: 01HXR1C1D2E3F4G5H6I7J8K9L0        │
│ Phase: execute                          │
│ State: complete                         │
│ Action: local/fix-bug                   │
│ Project: local/api-service              │
│ Automation: manual                      │
│ Attempt: 1                              │

╰──────────────────────╯

✓ OK Status refreshed

Actual Behavior

The code at src/cleveragents/cli/commands/plan.py line 2298 calls _print_lifecycle_plan(plan, title="Plan Status") which outputs a single generic panel with all plan details merged together, not the five distinct panels required by the spec.

Code Location

File: src/cleveragents/cli/commands/plan.py
Function: plan_status() at line 2216
Output section: line 2298

Steps to Reproduce

Create and execute a plan
Run: agents plan status <PLAN_ID>
Observe the output — a single generic panel is printed instead of five distinct panels

Impact on Workflow Examples

This blocks visual verification of all workflow examples in the spec that use agents plan status. The command functions correctly (status is retrieved), but the output does not match the spec.

Subtasks

Replace _print_lifecycle_plan() call with dedicated _print_plan_status_output() function
Plan Status panel: Plan ID, Phase, State, Action, Project, Automation, Attempt
Progress panel: phase completion indicators (✓ Strategize, ✓ Execute, • Apply)
Timing panel: Started, Elapsed, ETA
Execution Detail panel: Sandbox, Tool Calls, Files Modified, Child Plans, Checkpoints
Cost panel: Tokens Used, Cost So Far, Estimated (from estimation_result if available)
Add ✓ OK Status refreshed confirmation line

Definition of Done

agents plan status <PLAN_ID> outputs five panels matching the spec format
Progress panel correctly shows completed/pending phases
Cost panel shows token usage and cost data when available
All nox stages pass
Coverage >= 97%

Backlog note: This issue was discovered during autonomous operation
on milestone None. It does not block milestone completion and has been
placed in the backlog for human review and future milestone assignment.

Milestone Triage Decision: Moved to Backlog (Belongs in Earlier Milestone)

This CLI output panel fix has been moved out of v3.6.0 during aggressive milestone triage. Basic CLI panel fixes belong in earlier milestones, not in Advanced Concepts.

Reasoning:

v3.6.0 focus: Advanced concepts that extend beyond core MVP
This issue: Plan status output panels - basic CLI functionality
Impact: Basic CLI polish, not advanced conceptual capability

Should be addressed in v3.3.0 alongside plan status core functionality.
