Task

02-working/tasks

Optional. A tracked sub-unit of a Prompt Brief — only when a brief is large.

What it is

A Task breaks a large Prompt Brief into tracked steps. Most briefs need zero tasks — reach for them only when a brief is big enough that step-by-step tracking helps.

When to write it

Only when a Prompt Brief is large enough to warrant breaking down. Small briefs skip this entirely.

What goes in it

  • A one-line goal (the done state)
  • Acceptance — how you'll know it's done
  • Notes: files to touch, gotchas to read, links
  • A link back to its Prompt Brief

How it fits

The fourth tier of the Cascade, between the Prompt Brief and the Session Brief. Zero is fine.
