Planning Skills

breadboard-reflection

Compare accepted intent with implementation reality, assess realized conformance and effect separately, diagnose failures backward, and prepare explicit correction decisions.

breadboarding

Map current behavior, candidate shapes, or a selected design into places, affordances, stores, consequences, and wiring when concrete behavior needs clarification.

dumplink

Turn a selected, bounded project into sequenced vertical task groups with dependencies, risks, appetite-based cuts, acceptance checks, and a bounded handoff.

executable-breadboards

Turn a selected slice into fixtures, example runs, expected outputs, edge cases, and acceptance tests when it is ready for a buildable behavioral handoff.

feed-planning-context

Prepare a compact context packet when an implementation agent needs the authoritative planning subset, execution contract, non-goals, and verification target for one active task group or slice.

framing-doc

Create a frame from research, notes, requests, or transcripts when the current problem, desired outcome, boundaries, and evidence need to become explicit.

interface-contracts

Define plain-language inputs, outputs, branches, errors, and open decisions when a selected slice crosses a meaningful data, service, or system boundary.

kickoff-doc

Create a builder-facing kickoff document from accepted planning artifacts when a team needs a durable reference organized by shaped product territory.

lead-user-research

Inspect future-facing markets with Eric von Hippel's Lead User Method when teams need evidence-traceable trend, lead-user, and opportunity research.

planning-router

Inspect product-planning context and choose the smallest next move when no specific move is selected, while preserving fluid entry points and explicit commitment gates.

shaping

Shape ambiguous product work before implementation by iterating among requirements, solution shapes, fit checks, spikes, and candidate evidence while keeping commitment gates explicit.

sketch-reconciliation

Reconcile a screenshot, wireframe, mockup, whiteboard, or sketch with existing planning artifacts when visual evidence may change the frame, criteria, scope, or shape.
