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.

## Action Items
[ ] <Step 1: Discovery>
[ ] <Step 2: Implementation>
[ ] <Step 3: Implementation>
[ ] <Step 4: Validation/Testing>
[ ] <Step 5: Rollout/Commit>
## Open Questions
- <Question 1 (max 3)>
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.
