Use this skill for vague, high-rework planning work that needs iterative human decisions, such as product design, research planning, technical strategy, PRDs, workflow design, agent design, or skill design. Run concise P2A decision rounds, challenge assumptions early, record decisions in PLAN.md, DECISIONS.md, and OPEN_QUESTIONS.md, then produce FINAL_PLAN.md when converged. Do not use for simple factual Q&A, routine coding fixes, direct execution, translation, writing polish, or one-shot requests.
