What it does
Write or replace the whole plan on a draft scratchpad — the ordered list of records it will create.
Write or REPLACE the whole plan on a DRAFT scratchpad: the ordered create steps (≤24; seq assigned by position server-side). Every step validates against the LIVE registry + wire schema RIGHT HERE — an invalid step is MARKED with the exact problem and kept as written, never silently repaired; a plan with marked steps can be reviewed (ready) but can never be approved. A step's input may cite an earlier step's created record with the literal string @step:<n>. Bumps planRevision (the approval pin's subject). Refuses CONFLICT/REF_STATE outside draft (reopen first — the review hold freezes the plan). Requires authentication (user sessions) + the record's current revision. Template class (universal staff work).
What happens
Each step names a create operation and its input. Every step is checked immediately; a step that fails the check is MARKED with the exact problem and kept as written — nothing is silently fixed. A plan with marked steps can be reviewed but not approved. A step may reference an earlier step’s created record with @step:<n>.

Returns
Scratchpad Scratchpad! — A Scratchpad: collects intent (free text now; wizard answers/imports/suggestions/consultations mint through their own entrances later) until it holds a PLAN — ordered {operation, input} steps in wire vocabulary (≤24; creates-only v1: each operation must be a live create-class registry mutation) — and, once a human approves, REALIZES the plan into born constructs through the ordinary ops under the realizing caller's OWN session and capability (the hardened-Aldric law: the spine holds ZERO special authority; AI is just one plan author, and the spine never knows the difference). USER-parented (the collector owns the walk), group-rooted. Invalid steps are MARKED, never repaired; a marked plan can be ready for human eyes but can never be approved. Approval PINS the plan revision (the approved plan IS the executed plan); realization is idempotent + convergent-resume (the realized-id stamps are the idempotency keys) and every step's born cause narrates the scratchpad. The ops event domain (at.ops.scratchpad.*).
