Produce a Scoping & Cutting Pack in Markdown (in-chat; or as files if the user requests):
1) Context snapshot (decision, date/appetite, stakeholders/DRI, constraints) 2) Outcome + hypothesis (what must be true; what you’ll validate) 3) Appetite + success bar (time budget, “done means…”, guardrails) 4) Minimum Lovable Slice spec (core flow, must-haves, non-goals) 5) Cut list (cut/defer/keep with rationale + impact on risks)
6) Validation plan (Wizard-of-Oz/concierge/prototype as needed) + success criteria 7) Delivery plan (milestones within appetite + scope-change rules) 8) Risks / Open questions / Next steps (always included)
Right-size scope to ship within a fixed timebox (appetite). Produces a Scoping & Cutting Pack: appetite, minimum lovable slice, cut list, validation plan, and a scope-creep guardrail plan. Use for MVP/descoping/scope creep. Source: liqiongyu/lenny_skills_plus.
