There was no serious threat to democracy during January 6, nor was anyone seriously planning a coup (as opposed to Trump perhaps delusionally thinking he had won). January 6 is basically the Reichstag Fire of our time, but with the Democratic Party playing the role of the ruling party using a few miscreants as an excuse to persecute their political opponents.
There appears to have been a very serious plan to stop the counting by removing VP Pence from the scene. This would have left the election uncertified, and then various alternative panels of “fake electors” would have emerged to challenge the count. There was even a plan hatched within the political DoD leadership to declare marshal law and put the military on the streets to violently crush the ensuing protests. This has all been reported on and a few Google searches will turn up all the citations you apparently missed.
The guy who sent the mob to the capital to start the whole conspiracy in action?? Are you being glib? Yeah, there's evidence. Maybe look in to the court documents for the 90+ felonies he's been charged with? Or idk, anything he has said about it? You have to be willfully sticking your head in the sand at this point or one of the cult members. Hope it's the former.
January 6th or not, the very fact that Trump intentionally persistently spread misinformation to delegitimise an election he lost is a clear and direct attack on the central pillar of democracy.
The election was not stolen. He knew. He lied and used his media reach to convince tens of millions of people that the election was fraudulent when it wasn't.

And there's evidence that Trump directly orchestrated this alleged plan?

Stochastic terrorism. Please don't be an apologist. I like democracy.
This level of brainwashing is flabbergasting…
