Hardware Design Review

Most likely because there is no active executable plan bar right now.
In Flux,
Start is only available when a valid plan has actually been created for execution; the modification-tools guidance makes @plan the thing that generates that executable plan state, and it’s separate from just showing text that says “plan is ready” . If that plan was never created, expired, was replaced by later chat turns, or the current project/session is read-only, the button won’t be clickable.In your case, one especially important clue is that your current context says User can edit project: false. If you don’t have edit access to this project, Flux may let you discuss plans but not actually execute them here.
Most likely reasons
- You don’t have edit permission on this project
- Your current context indicates read-only access, so execution can be blocked even if we’ve discussed a plan.
- The plan bar is stale or no longer active
- A newer message can invalidate the prior executable state, leaving only the text history.
- The previous response was just a summary, not an active executable plan
- Saying “click Start” in chat is not the same as a currently live plan object.
- The project/page needs a refresh
- Sometimes the UI state lags behind the conversation.
- Refresh the project tab.
- Check whether you are in your editable copy of the project, not a read-only/shared version.
- Ask me to recreate the plan, then look for a fresh plan bar immediately under that response.
- If this is someone else’s project, fork/clone it into your own editable workspace first.
Since your context says you cannot edit this project, that is probably the main blocker. If you want, I can help you create a new editable copy prompt or a fork/clone link so you can run the work there.
Make editable copy
Recreate fresh plan
Check edit access
