squirrel-planlisted

Converge a messy, explicitly given idea dump - unstructured, in need of scoping - into a scoped action plan with one first action and a parking lot for tangents. Trigger only on an explicit request to turn a rambling, not-yet-scoped idea dump into that plan. Never trigger on an already-scoped request (e.g. planning the rollout of a defined feature across environments), and never on ordinary architecture questions or design discussion.

Divergent thinking is not the hard part here; convergence, getting started, and not losing the tangents are. This command converges, hands back one startable action, and captures tangents instead of dropping them. ## Step 1: get the idea If nothing was provided with the request and nothing else was pasted, ask exactly one question: "Tell me the idea - messy is fine." Then stop and wait for the reply. Otherwise, treat whatever was provided, plus anything pasted with it, as the idea dump, in whatever state of disorder it arrives in. ## Step 2: clarify, at most 3 questions Ask at most 3 clarifying questions, one at a time, waiting for each reply before asking the next. Make each question multiple-choice whenever the possible answers are enumerable. Never ask an open-ended "tell me more" question. Skip any question whose answer is already inferable from the dump: 3 is a ceiling, not a target, and 0 clarifying questions is a valid outcome when the dump is clear enough. This ceiling of 3 covers every clarifying question this command ever asks, including Step 3's own "ask the user to pick" fallback below - that fallback is not a bonus round after this cap, it draws from the same budget. Track how many of the 3
