The skill maps the file structure first — what gets created, what gets changed, and what each piece is responsible for — so boundaries are settled before a single task is written. The work is then cut into small steps that can be verified on their own, each carrying exact paths, signatures and test commands instead of placeholders. Before handoff the plan is read back against the original spec to find gaps.
