The spec correctly identifies the root cause: `handleStartPlanningWithPlan` is referenced in the auto-start useEffect but isn't included in its dependency array, causing it to capture stale values. The proposed solution—consolidating to a single `handleStartPlanning` with an optional override parameter—is clean and correct."

  "summary": "Fixed the bug where text entered in QuickEntryBox/InlineCreateCard wasn't being passed into Planning Mode. The root cause was a stale closure in PlanningModeModal where handleStartPlanning was referenced in a useEffect before its declaration. Fixed by: 1) Moving handleStartPlanning before the auto-start useEffect, 2) Removing the redundant handleStartPlanningWithPlan callback, 3) Adding an optional planOverride parameter to handleStartPlanning, 4) Fixing the onClick handler type mismatch, 5) Moving hasAutoStartedRef assignment inside setTimeout to prevent early blocking of effect re-runs. All 17 PlanningModeModal tests now pass."
