# Project Planner
## Overview
Turns a fuzzy goal into a concrete, scheduled plan. Produces a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS), milestones, an explicit dependency graph, defensible effort estimates, a critical path, and a risk register.
Keywords: project plan, work breakdown structure, WBS, milestones, dependencies, critical path, estimation, scheduling, roadmap, task decomposition, Gantt, sequencing.
Use this skill whenever the input is a goal/spec/idea and the desired output is "what needs to happen, in what order, and roughly how long".
## When to use
- "Plan the migration to X" / "Break this feature into tasks" / "Build a roadmap for Q3".
- The user has a deliverable but no task list, sequence, or estimate.
- An existing task list needs dependencies, estimates, or a critical path added.
## Workflow
Follow these steps in order. Do not skip clarification.
1. **Clarify the goal and constraints.** Capture: the single end deliverable ("done" definition), hard deadline (if any), team/resource availability, and any fixed external dependencies. Ask at most 3–5 sharp questions if these are missing. See `references/clarifying-questions.md`.
2. **Decompose into a WBS.** Break the goal top-down into deliverable-oriented work packages using the 100% rule (children fully cover the parent, no overlap). Stop decomposing at the 8/80 rule: each leaf task is 8–80 hours of work. Number hierarchically (1, 1.1, 1.1.1). See `references/wbs-method.md`.
3. **Define milestones.** Mark zero-dura
