Scope And Blockers

Purpose

Keep scope and blockers explicit.

When to Use

Use when requirements are broad, ambiguous, or blocked by missing information.

Inputs

User request, plan, constraints, assumptions, dependencies.

Steps

  1. Define in-scope work.
  2. Define out-of-scope work.
  3. List blockers and their impact.
  4. Continue with safe assumptions when possible.

Gates

No hidden expansion of scope; blockers are visible.

Evidence

Plan, issue list, or final response names skipped and blocked items.

Anti-Patterns

Silently changing the goal; stopping early without naming the blocker.
