description: Break work into small verifiable tasks with acceptance criteria and dependency ordering
Invoke the agent-skills:planning-and-task-breakdown skill.
Read the existing spec (SPEC.md or equivalent) and the relevant codebase sections. Then:
- Enter plan mode — read only, no code changes
- Identify the dependency graph between components
- Slice work vertically (one complete path per task, not horizontal layers)
- Write tasks with acceptance criteria and verification steps
- Add checkpoints between phases
- Present the plan for human review
Save the plan to tasks/plan.md and task list to tasks/todo.md.
If tasks/plan.md or tasks/todo.md already exists with unchecked tasks for different work, stop and ask before writing — never silently overwrite an incomplete plan.
