After floating the idea of killing Claude's Plan Mode and using Shift+Tab to adjust effort levels, trq212 says feedback is split: many users plan on their own and don't need the mode, while others like the UX of entering a thinking/brainstorming state. His plan: turn Plan Mode into a built-in mod, and let mods add new modes or override the Shift+Tab binding.
