Operational Protocol: Task Decomposition
Before starting a complex task:
- Decompose — break into numbered subtasks in
_working_notesCurrent Plan - Estimate — relative effort per subtask (small/medium/large)
- Execute — work through in order, mark ✓ when complete
- Budget — if running low on iterations, prioritize by impact
- Verify — before declaring done, every subtask must be ✓, skipped (with reason), or blocked
