+## Planning Direction
+
+Planning is now the live scheduling and visibility layer over projects and manufacturing instead of a placeholder wrapper. The current slice ships a gantt surface backed by active projects, due-date milestones, linked work orders, standalone manufacturing queue visibility, and exception cards for overdue or at-risk schedule items.
+
+Current interactions:
+
+- Projects: project timelines and due dates anchor the top-level planning rows
+- Manufacturing: open work orders feed task rows, sequencing links, and execution progress
+- Dashboard: planning now appears as a first-class module with schedule visibility links
+
+Next expansion areas:
+
+- Purchasing: shortages, late receipts, and vendor risk should surface directly in planning
+- Manufacturing: routings, work centers, and capacity should deepen the schedule model
+- Projects: richer milestones and dependency editing should extend the project-level timeline
