| 3 | ## Trigger |
| 4 | When the user asks to "break this down into tasks," "create a plan," or "what are the steps." |
| 5 | |
| 6 | ## Steps |
| 7 | |
| 8 | 1. **Scope** — Restate the goal in one sentence. |
| 9 | 2. **List tasks** — Output 5–15 ordered tasks (each actionable in 1–2 hours); dependencies first. |
| 10 | 3. **Optional** — For each task: owner placeholder, acceptance criteria, or link to doc. |
| 11 | 4. **Summary** — One-line summary and suggested order (sequential vs parallel where possible). |
| 12 | |
| 13 | ## Rules |
| 14 | - Tasks should be concrete (e.g. "Add validation in create-order handler" not "Improve API"). |
| 15 | - Do not execute the tasks unless the user asks to implement one. |
