## Definition

**LFG** (`/LFG`) is a slash command in the **Compound Engineering** plugin that runs the full planning → build → check → merge-request cycle in a single go, typically used for personal or low-stakes projects where plan review can be skipped and iteration is cheap.

In the channel's material, **LFG** appears as the slash command **`/LFG`** in the **Compound Engineering** plugin. It is the one-shot shortcut through the plugin's full cycle: it **plans, builds, checks, and opens a merge request in a single go** — the same planning → work → review loop, run end to end without stopping for your input at each stage.Kieran Klaassen positions `/LFG` as a matter of **stakes**, not capability: for **professional work**, he reviews the plan before anything runs; for **personal or fun projects**, he reaches for `/LFG` and assumes that if a result turns out badly, the next iteration will be better. Iteration is cheap, so the risk of an unreviewed, fully automated run is acceptable.- **`/LFG`** runs the whole Compound Engineering cycle — plan, build, check, open a merge request — in one command.- It is framed as a choice for **low-stakes, personal, or fun projects**, where you can skip plan review and rely on cheap iteration.- The contrast case is **professional work**, where the recommendation is to always review the plan rather than fire the full flow in one shot.
