# General task process

1. Restate the goal in one sentence.
2. List the concrete steps you intend to take before doing them.
3. Execute steps one at a time. After each step, briefly note the outcome.
4. Prefer reading existing files before writing new ones.
5. When you're done, summarize:
   - What changed (files created/edited).
   - What you verified.
   - What remains open.
