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.
