# Design first, build after approval

> Draft, review, redo, and approve Arka implementation plans before code changes.

```bash theme={null}
arka design plan "build a dashboard for local model benchmarks"
arka design show
arka design redo "include offline support and a CSV export"
arka design accept
arka design build --yes
```

`design plan` and `design redo` do not modify the project. `design build` is
blocked until the draft is accepted, keeping planning separate from execution.
