What this skill does

Task Planning Workflow 1. Gather Information: Explore codebase and list dependencies. 2. Draft Plan: Objective: Goal of the task. Approach: High-level strategy. Steps: Sequential actions. Verification: How to prove it works. 3. Clarify: Include at least 3 clarifying questions with proposed answers. 4. Approve: Wait for user "go ahead" (empty response = approval). 5. Implement: Execute only after approval. Principles Zero-Impact: Do not modify files during planning. Iterative: Refine based on feedback. Concise: Keep plans readable and progress tracked via TODOs.
