## About

# Plan Before Execution

## Purpose
Create a bounded plan before non-trivial work.

## When to Use
Use for multi-file, high-risk, ambiguous, or delegated work.

## Inputs
Goal, scope, constraints, source files, risks, verification options.

## Steps
1. Restate the goal.
2. Define in-scope and out-of-scope work.
3. Split execution into reviewable phases.
4. Attach verification to each risky phase.

## Gates
The plan covers the user request, constraints, blockers, and checks.

## Evidence
An actionable plan or checklist exists before implementation.

## Anti-Patterns
Editing first and discovering scope later; treating a plan as approval.
