version: "1.0.0" name: concise-planning description: Use when a user asks for a plan for a coding task, to generate a clear, actionable, and atomic checklist.

Concise Planning

Goal

Turn a user request into a single, actionable plan with atomic steps.

Workflow

1. Scan Context

• Read README.md, docs, and relevant code files.
• Identify constraints (language, frameworks, tests).

2. Minimal Interaction

• Ask at most 1–2 questions and only if truly blocking.
• Make reasonable assumptions for non-blocking unknowns.

3. Generate Plan

Use the following structure:

• Approach: 1-3 sentences on what and why.
• Scope: Bullet points for "In" and "Out".
• Action Items: A list of 6-10 atomic, ordered tasks (Verb-first).
• Validation: At least one item for testing.

Checklist Guidelines

• Atomic: Each step should be a single logical unit of work.
• Verb-first: "Add...", "Refactor...", "Verify...".
• Concrete: Name specific files or modules when possible.
