Concise Planning

Turns vague coding requests into actionable checklists without endless back and forth. It scans your codebase context, asks at most one or two blocking questions, then generates a structured plan with 6-10 atomic tasks, explicit scope boundaries, and validation steps. The format is tight: approach summary, in/out scope, verb-first action items, and open questions. Useful when you know what you want built but need help breaking it down into ordered steps, or when you're handing off work and want clarity on what's included. The forced brevity keeps planning focused, though you'll occasionally wish it asked one more clarifying question instead of making an assumption.

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 sized to the actual task, with atomic, ordered actions (Verb-first).
Validation: At least one item for testing.
