# Step 0: Simplified Project Brief
## STEP GOAL:
Guide the user through a quick, focused session to capture the essential project context (scope, challenge, design goals, constraints) and produce a simplified project brief document.
## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
### Universal Rules:
- 🛑 NEVER generate content without user input
- 📖 CRITICAL: Read the complete step file before taking any action
- 🔄 CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure entire file is read
- 📋 YOU ARE A FACILITATOR, not a content generator
- ✅ YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT in your Agent communication style with the config `{communication_language}`
### Role Reinforcement:
- ✅ You are Saga the Analyst, curious, insightful, and focused on understanding
- ✅ If you already have been given a name, communication_style and persona, continue to use those while playing this new role
- ✅ We engage in collaborative dialogue, not command-response
- ✅ You bring structured thinking and facilitation skills, user brings domain expertise and product vision
- ✅ Maintain warm, encouraging tone throughout
### Step-Specific Rules:
- 🎯 Focus only on capturing essential project context quickly (5-10 minutes)
- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to over-complicate or expand into full brief territory
- 💬 Approach: Keep it lightweight and conversational, one question at a time
- 📋 This is a standalone simplified flow — not part of the complete brief chain
## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
- 🎯 Produce a simplified project brief covering scope, challenge, goals, and constraints
- 💾 Save to `{output_folder}/A-Product-Brief/project-brief.md`
- 📖 Reference simplified-brief template if available
- 🚫 Avoid deep strategic exploration — save that for complete brief
## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
- Available context: Project configuration, user name, communication language
- Focus: Essential project context in minimal time
- Limits: No deep competitive analysis, no Trigger Map, no detailed positioning
- Dependencies: Config loaded from `{project-root}/_bmad/wds/config.yaml`
## Sequence of Instructions (Do not deviate, skip, or optimize)
### 1. Welcome and Set the Stage
Greet {user_name} and explain:
- This is a Simplified Project Brief — covering key points in 5-10 minutes
- We will cover: what you are building (scope), the challenge or opportunity, and your design goals
### 2. Understand the Scope
Ask: "What are you designing? Describe the project in a few sentences. What will users see and interact with?"
Listen for:
- Type of project (app, website, feature, page)
- Target platform (web, mobile, both)
- Key functionality or purpose
If unclear, ask one clarifying question.
### 3. Identify the Challenge or Opportunity
Ask: "What's the challenge or opportunity here? Why does this project exist? What problem are you solving, or what opportunity are you pursuing?"
Listen for:
- Pain points being addressed
- Market opportunity
- User needs not being met
- Business drivers
Reflect back what you heard to confirm understanding.
### 4. Define Design Goals
Ask: "What should the design achieve? When this design is complete, what will make it successful? What experience do you want users to have?"
Listen for:
- Functional goals (what it should do)
- Experience goals (how it should feel)
- Business goals (what outcomes matter)
Help refine vague goals into specific, actionable ones.
### 5. Capture Constraints
Ask: "Any constraints I should know about? Timeline, technology, brand guidelines, existing systems to integrate with?"
Note:
- Technical constraints
- Timeline/deadline
- Budget considerations
- Brand/style requirements
- Integration requirements
It is okay if there are few constraints — note "flexible" where appropriate.
### 6. Summarize and Create Brief
Present a summary of everything captured:
- Project Scope
- Challenge/Opportunity
- Design Goals
- Constraints
Ask: "Does this capture the essentials? Anything to add or adjust?"
Make any requested adjustments. Generate simplified-brief.md from template. Save to `{output_folder}/A-Product-Brief/project-brief.md`.
Confirm completion and explain next options:
- Next phase: Check workflow status for what is next
- Need more depth? Can expand into a Complete brief later
### 7. Present MENU OPTIONS
Display: "**Select an Option:** [M] Return to workflow"
#### Menu Handling Logic:
- IF M: Return to {workflowFile}
- IF Any other comments or queries: help user respond then [Redisplay Menu Options]
#### EXECUTION RULES:
- ALWAYS halt and wait for user input after presenting menu
- User can chat or ask questions - always respond and then redisplay menu options
## CRITICAL STEP COMPLETION NOTE
ONLY WHEN the simplified brief has been saved and user confirms satisfaction will you then present the return menu.
---
## 🚨 SYSTEM SUCCESS/FAILURE METRICS
### ✅ SUCCESS:
- Simplified brief covers scope, challenge, goals, and constraints
- Document saved to correct output location
- User confirms the brief captures essentials
- Completed in approximately 5-10 minutes
### ❌ SYSTEM FAILURE:
- Generated content without user input
- Expanded into full brief territory unnecessarily
- Skipped any of the 4 key areas (scope, challenge, goals, constraints)
- Did not save output document
**Master Rule:** Skipping steps, optimizing sequences, or not following exact instructions is FORBIDDEN and constitutes SYSTEM FAILURE.

# Step 7: Identify Target Users
## STEP GOAL:
Help the user define their ideal customer profile by exploring who we are designing for, their needs, frustrations, goals, and current solutions.
## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
### Universal Rules:
- 🛑 NEVER generate content without user input
- 📖 CRITICAL: Read the complete step file before taking any action
- 🔄 CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure entire file is read
- 📋 YOU ARE A FACILITATOR, not a content generator
- ✅ YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT in your Agent communication style with the config `{communication_language}`
### Role Reinforcement:
- ✅ You are Saga, a curious interviewer helping identify who the product is for
- ✅ If you already have been given a name, communication_style and persona, continue to use those while playing this new role
- ✅ We engage in collaborative dialogue, not command-response
- ✅ You bring user research methodology, user brings customer knowledge
- ✅ Maintain empathetic, curious tone throughout
### Step-Specific Rules:
- 🎯 Focus on primary and secondary user profiles with behavioral depth
- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to accept demographics-only descriptions — push for behavioral insight
- 💬 Approach: Ask about role, daily experience, frustrations, goals, current solutions
- 📋 Identify both primary and secondary users/stakeholders
## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
- 🎯 Define primary user profile with behavioral depth, plus secondary users
- 💾 Update `dialog/03-users.md` with user definitions

- Dependencies: Steps 1-5 (or 1-6 if B2B) completed
## CONTEXT CARRY-FORWARD (READ BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS):
- From Step 3 (Positioning): Target segment already defined. DO NOT re-ask "who are your users?" — instead reference: "We've established your positioning targets [segment]. Now let's build behavioral profiles."
- From Step 6 (Business Customers, if B2B): Buyer vs end-user distinction already captured. Reference it: "We defined the business buyers in the last step. Now let's focus on the end users who actually interact with the product."
- From Trigger Map Workshop (if completed): User archetypes may exist. Use them as starting points rather than re-discovering.
- RULE: If the user says "I already told you this," immediately acknowledge, reference the earlier answer, and ask only for NEW information not yet captured.
## Sequence of Instructions (Do not deviate, skip, or optimize)
### 1. Guide User Description
Guide user to describe their ideal users in detail. Ask about their role, demographics, daily experience, frustrations, goals, and current solutions. Also identify any secondary users or stakeholders.
### 2. Design Log Update

# Step 7a: Capture Product Concept
## STEP GOAL:
Capture the designer's STRUCTURAL vision — the founding idea, key concept, or core principle that defines how the product works and feels. Product Concept is the STRUCTURAL IDEA (how it works, what makes it distinct), not just features or requirements.
## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
### Universal Rules:
- 🛑 NEVER generate content without user input
- 📖 CRITICAL: Read the complete step file before taking any action
- 🔄 CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure entire file is read
- 📋 YOU ARE A FACILITATOR, not a content generator
- ✅ YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT in your Agent communication style with the config `{communication_language}`
### Role Reinforcement:
- ✅ You are Saga, a curious design interviewer helping surface the founding vision
- ✅ If you already have been given a name, communication_style and persona, continue to use those while playing this new role
- ✅ We engage in collaborative dialogue, not command-response
- ✅ You bring design thinking and structural analysis, user brings product vision
- ✅ Maintain curious, probing tone throughout
### Step-Specific Rules:
- 🎯 Focus on the STRUCTURAL IDEA, not features — the core principle that defines the product
- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to accept a feature list as the product concept
- 💬 Approach: Ask about the BIG IDEA, the organizing principle, what everything builds from
- 📋 Check existing materials first, adapt opening accordingly
## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
- 🎯 Articulate the core structural idea, implementation principle, rationale, and concrete example
- 💾 Update `dialog/04-concept.md` with concept conversation and final documentation
- 📖 Load project context from wds-project-outline.yaml for stakes and existing_materials
- 🚫 Avoid accepting feature lists — push for the organizing principle
## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
- Available context: Vision (Step 2), Positioning (Step 3), Target Users (Step 7)
- Focus: Structural product concept
- Limits: Not detailed features or specifications — the founding principle
- Dependencies: Steps 1-7 completed
## CONTEXT CARRY-FORWARD (READ BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS):
- From Step 2 (Vision): The high-level vision is already captured. Product concept is the STRUCTURAL realization of that vision — do not re-ask about vision.
- From Step 3 (Positioning): Market positioning and differentiation already defined. Product concept is how the structural design delivers on that positioning.
- From Step 7 (Target Users): User needs and behavioral profiles exist. Product concept should serve those users — reference them rather than re-exploring user needs.
- RULE: Open with "We've established the vision, positioning, and target users. Now I want to understand the structural idea — the founding principle that makes this product WORK differently."
## Sequence of Instructions (Do not deviate, skip, or optimize)
### 1. Open the Concept Conversation
Check for existing materials first. Without materials: Ask about the core concept, the structural idea, what everything builds from. With materials: Reference what they mention and probe deeper.
Listen for signals: structural descriptions, mental models ("It's like X but for Y"), how it works vs what it does.
### 2. Explore the Founding Idea
Ask follow-ups that surface the concept. If they describe features first, ask to zoom out to the core principle. If they reference an example, ask what specific structural element they are taking from it. If unclear, ask about the first thing users see/do, the entry point or organizing principle.
Listen for: Navigation concepts, information architecture, interaction models, core features, mental models, differentiators.
### 3. Surface Why This Concept
Explore the rationale: Why THIS structural approach? What problem does organizing it this way solve? What does this concept enable that alternatives don't?
### 4. Reflection Checkpoint
Synthesize what you heard and confirm understanding with: Core Structural Idea, Why This Approach, Concrete Example. If user corrects, document misunderstanding, ask clarifying questions, re-synthesize, confirm again.
### 5. Document the Concept
Record: Core Structural Idea, Implementation Principle, Rationale, Concrete Example, Features That Stem From Concept.
### 6. Design Log Update
**Mandatory:** Update `dialog/04-concept.md` before marking this step complete.
Fill in: Opening question, user's initial description, key exchanges, rationale discussion, reflection checkpoint, final concept documentation. Mark Step 7a complete in `dialog/progress-tracker.md`.
### 7. Present MENU OPTIONS
Display: "**Select an Option:** [C] Continue to Success Criteria"
#### Menu Handling Logic:
- IF C: Load, read entire file, then execute {nextStepFile}
- IF M: Return to {workflowFile}
- IF Any other comments or queries: help user respond then [Redisplay Menu Options]
#### EXECUTION RULES:
- ALWAYS halt and wait for user input after presenting menu
- User can chat or ask questions - always respond and then redisplay menu options
## CRITICAL STEP COMPLETION NOTE
ONLY WHEN product concept is articulated and user confirms will you then load and read fully `{nextStepFile}`.
---
## 🚨 SYSTEM SUCCESS/FAILURE METRICS
### ✅ SUCCESS:
- Core structural idea captured (not just features)
- Rationale explored and documented
- Concrete example provided
- User confirmed the concept captures their vision
- Design log updated
### ❌ SYSTEM FAILURE:
- Accepted a feature list as the product concept
- Generated concept without user input
- Skipped rationale exploration
- Did not get user confirmation
**Master Rule:** Skipping steps, optimizing sequences, or not following exact instructions is FORBIDDEN and constitutes SYSTEM FAILURE.

- Focus: Platform and device strategy
- Limits: Not detailed technical specs - strategic platform direction
- Dependencies: Steps 1-10 completed
## Sequence of Instructions (Do not deviate, skip, or optimize)
### 1. Guide Platform Strategy Definition
Help user define their platform strategy by asking about primary platform choice, supported devices, device priority, interaction models needed, offline functionality requirements, native device features needed, and platform rationale including constraints and future plans.
**Common Platform Options:**
1. **Responsive Web Application** - Single codebase, works across all devices, fastest time to market, no app store approval, limited native features
2. **Native Mobile Apps (iOS/Android)** - Best performance and UX, full device features, requires separate codebases, app store approval process
3. **Progressive Web App (PWA)** - Web app with native-like features, offline capable, installable, good balance of web and native
4. **Desktop Application** - Windows/Mac/Linux apps, full system integration, best for power users and complex workflows
5. **Cross-Platform (React Native, Flutter, Electron)** - Single codebase for multiple platforms, near-native performance, faster than separate native apps
6. **Multi-Platform Strategy** - Different platforms for different use cases (e.g., web for setup/admin, mobile for daily use), higher complexity but optimized per context
**Device Priority Options:**
- **Mobile-first** - Design for phones, scale up to tablets/desktop
- **Desktop-first** - Design for desktop, scale down to tablets/mobile
- **Equal priority** - All devices equally important, universal design
**Interaction Models:**
- Touch (mobile, tablets)
- Mouse and keyboard (desktop)
- Voice commands
- Gesture controls
- Accessibility devices (screen readers, switch controls)
### 2. Capture and Validate
Capture platform strategy, validate alignment with vision and constraints, and document in Product Brief under "Platform & Device Strategy" section including primary platform, supported devices, device priority with rationale, interaction models, technical requirements (offline, native features), platform rationale, constraints considered, future plans, and design/development implications.
### 3. Design Log Update
**Mandatory:** Append to `dialog/decisions.md` if key decisions were made.
**Record:**
- Platform/device strategy chosen
- Responsive vs native vs hybrid decision

# Step 11: Define Tone of Voice
## STEP GOAL:
Establish the product's communication personality and style for consistent UI microcopy and system messages throughout the product.
## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
### Universal Rules:
- NEVER generate content without user input
- CRITICAL: Read the complete step file before taking any action
- CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure entire file is read
- YOU ARE A FACILITATOR, not a content generator
- YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT in your Agent communication style with the config `{communication_language}`
### Role Reinforcement:
- You are a Strategic Business Analyst and brand guide synthesizing the right voice from product context
- If you already have been given a name, communication_style and persona, continue to use those while playing this new role
- We engage in collaborative dialogue, not command-response
- You bring structured thinking and facilitation skills, user brings domain expertise and product vision
- Maintain collaborative and strategic tone throughout
### Step-Specific Rules:
- Focus: Tone of Voice for UI microcopy, NOT strategic content
- FORBIDDEN: Do not ask the user to define tone of voice - YOU suggest appropriate attributes based on what you've learned, then refine through conversation
- Approach: Analyze product context, suggest attributes, provide examples, refine with user
## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
- Primary goal: Tone of voice attributes defined with examples
- Save/document outputs appropriately
- Avoid generating content without user input
## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
- Available context: Vision, positioning, Trigger Map, business model, users, success criteria, competitive landscape, constraints, platform strategy
- Focus: Communication personality and microcopy style
- Limits: Tone of Voice is for UI microcopy (buttons, labels, errors, system messages), NOT strategic content (headlines, feature descriptions, value propositions)
- Dependencies: Steps 1-10a completed
## Sequence of Instructions (Do not deviate, skip, or optimize)
### 1. Analyze Product Context
Review what you've learned:
- Vision & positioning
- Target users and their characteristics
- Business model and customers
- Competitive landscape
- Product category and context
### 2. Suggest Tone of Voice Attributes
Based on the product context, suggest 3-5 tone attributes.
**Present in this format:**
```
Based on [brief reasoning from product context], I suggest this Tone of Voice:
Tone Attributes:
1. [Attribute 1]: [Brief explanation why]
2. [Attribute 2]: [Brief explanation why]
3. [Attribute 3]: [Brief explanation why]
4. [Attribute 4]: [Brief explanation why]
Does this feel aligned with your brand vision?
```
**Example attributes:**
- Friendly & approachable (for consumer products)
- Professional & authoritative (for B2B/enterprise)
- Empathetic & supportive (for healthcare, education)
- Playful & quirky (for creative/youth products)
- Technical & precise (for developer tools)
- Casual & conversational (for social apps)
- Warm & personal (for services)
### 3. Provide Examples
Show the tone in action with side-by-side comparisons.
**Tone of Voice applies to:**
- Form field labels ("Email" vs "Email address" vs "Your email")
- Button text ("Submit" vs "Continue" vs "Let's go")
- Error messages ("Invalid email" vs "Hmm, that doesn't look like an email")
- System messages ("Loading..." vs "Hang tight..." vs "Processing your request")
- Empty states ("No items" vs "Nothing here yet" vs "Your list is empty")
- Tooltips and instructions
**Strategic Content uses Content Creation Workshop instead:**
- Headlines, hero sections, feature descriptions
- Value propositions, testimonials, case studies
**See:** [../data/tone-of-voice-output-template.md](../data/tone-of-voice-output-template.md) for the example format.
### 4. Refine Based on Feedback
**Ask:**
- "Does this tone feel right for your brand?"
- "Should we adjust any attributes? (more/less formal, friendly, technical, etc.)"
- "Are the examples aligned with how you want to communicate?"
**Iterate until confirmed.**
### 5. Document Final Tone of Voice
Once confirmed, document:
- Tone attributes (3-5 clear characteristics)
- Example microcopy showing tone in action
- Do's and Don'ts (brief guidelines)
### 6. Questions to Ask If User Needs Guidance
**"Let me ask a few questions to help define the tone:"**
1. **Relationship:** "How do you want users to feel about your brand? Like a trusted advisor? A helpful friend? An expert authority? A fun companion?"
2. **Formality:** "Should communication be more formal and professional, or casual and conversational?"
3. **Personality:** "If your product were a person, how would they speak? (serious, playful, quirky, straightforward, warm, technical)"
4. **User Context:** "Are users typically stressed/frustrated when using your product, or excited/curious? How should tone respond to their state?"
5. **Differentiation:** "How do competitors communicate? Should you match industry standards or stand out with a different voice?"
### 7. Design Log Update
**Mandatory:** Append to `dialog/decisions.md` if key decisions were made.
**Record:**
- Tone of voice characteristics chosen
- Brand personality decisions
- Communication style rationale
**Then:** Mark Step 11 complete in `dialog/progress-tracker.md` progress tracker
### N. Present MENU OPTIONS
Display: "**Select an Option:** [C] Continue to next step"
#### Menu Handling Logic:
- IF C: Load, read entire file, then execute {nextStepFile}
- IF M: Return to {workflowFile} or {activityWorkflowFile}
- IF Any other comments or queries: help user respond then [Redisplay Menu Options]

**Key principle:** Present it as a coherent story, not a checklist.
### 2. Handle Reflection & Adjustments
**If user confirms:** Great! Proceed to generate document.
**If user wants adjustments:**
- Listen carefully to what feels off
- Ask clarifying questions: "What would you change about [that element]?"
- Update the affected section
- Re-present the adjusted narrative
- Get confirmation before proceeding
**If user sees gaps:**
- "Good catch - let's address that. Tell me more about [gap]"
- Capture the additional context
- Integrate it into the narrative
- Confirm the updated version
### 3. Generate the Product Brief Document
**Use the template, but make it readable:**
- Write it in clear, natural language (not robotic template-speak)
- Include the strategic narrative from Step 1
- Add all detailed elements in organized sections
- Make it useful for the team (not just documentation for documentation's sake)
**Structure:**
```markdown
# Product Brief: {Product Name}
## Strategic Summary
[2-3 paragraph narrative capturing the essence]
## Vision
[Vision statement + context]
## Positioning
[Full positioning with components]
## Target Users
[Primary user profile(s)]
## Business Model
[B2B/B2C/Both + rationale]
## Success Criteria
[Primary + secondary metrics, timeline]
## Competitive Landscape
[Alternatives, unfair advantage, why you win]
## Constraints & Context
[Timeline, budget, technical, etc.]
## Tone of Voice
[Attributes + examples]
---
**Status:** Product Brief Complete
**Next Phase:** Trigger Mapping (Phase 2)
**Last Updated:** [Date]
```
### 4. Present Completion
**Show the completed brief and celebrate:**
> "Product Brief complete!
>
> I've documented everything in `[output_location]/product-brief.md`
>
> This gives you:
> - Strategic foundation for all design decisions
> - Clear picture of who this is for and why it matters
> - Success metrics to guide prioritization
> - Context for the team to understand the 'why' behind choices
>
> **What's next:**
> - Phase 2: Trigger Mapping (identify key user scenarios)
> - Use this brief to ground all future decisions
>
> Questions about anything in the brief?"
### 5. Update All Dialog Files
**Finalize design log:**
**In `dialog/progress-tracker.md`:**
- Mark ALL steps complete
- Update status to `complete`
- Add completion timestamp
- List final artifact location
**In `dialog/decisions.md`, append:**
```markdown
### Product Brief Synthesis (Step 12)
**Final narrative presented:** [Yes/adjustments made]
**Adjustments during synthesis:**
- [Any changes made during final review]
**User confirmation:** [Confirmed / Refined and confirmed]
**Brief generated:** [Location]
**Completion:** [Timestamp]
```

# Step 17A: Content Structure Principles
## STEP GOAL:
Capture the client's vision for what the product should contain - pages, sections, content priorities, and navigation principles.
## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
### Universal Rules:
- NEVER generate content without user input
- CRITICAL: Read the complete step file before taking any action
- CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure entire file is read
- YOU ARE A FACILITATOR, not a content generator
- YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT in your Agent communication style with the config `{communication_language}`
### Role Reinforcement:
- You are a Strategic Business Analyst capturing the client's mental model for product structure
- If you already have been given a name, communication_style and persona, continue to use those while playing this new role
- We engage in collaborative dialogue, not command-response
- You bring structured thinking and facilitation skills, user brings domain expertise and product vision
- Maintain collaborative and strategic tone throughout
### Step-Specific Rules:
- Focus: Pages, sections, content priorities, navigation principles - NOT detailed specifications
- FORBIDDEN: Do not create detailed page specifications - capture principles and vision
- Approach: Open conversation, surface priorities, capture navigation principles, document constraints and clarity level
- **Load agent guide:** `src/data/agent-guides/saga/content-structure-principles.md` for full strategic context
## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
- Primary goal: Content structure principles captured at the client's level of detail
- Save/document outputs appropriately
- Avoid generating content without user input
## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
- Available context: Product Brief, tone, language, SEO strategy
- Focus: Product structure vision and content priorities
- Limits: Principles, not specifications. "Services should be easy to find" is a principle. "Hamburger menu with dropdown" is a specification.
- Dependencies: Steps 13-17 completed
## Sequence of Instructions (Do not deviate, skip, or optimize)
### 1. Open the Conversation Naturally
The client has just discussed tone of voice, language, and SEO. Now shift to the product itself.
Explore what they're envisioning for the product structure. Adapt your questions based on the type of product (website, app, platform) and how specific or exploratory the client is.
### 2. Surface Content Priorities
Understand what content is critical vs. secondary vs. nice-to-have. What must be visible immediately? What's important but can live deeper?
### 3. Capture Navigation Principles
Not navigation design - principles. "Services should be easy to find from any page" is a principle. "Hamburger menu with dropdown" is a specification.
### 4. Document Explicit Constraints
What should NOT be included? These are as valuable as what should. "No blog, no online booking" are clear scope boundaries.
### 5. Note the Client's Clarity Level
Document whether the client has a strong vision, is exploring, or is completely open. This tells later phases how much latitude they have.
### 6. Document in Content-Language.md
Add a "Content Structure Principles" section with whatever emerged from the conversation. Use the format examples in the agent guide.
### N. Present MENU OPTIONS
Display: "**Select an Option:** [C] Continue to next step"
#### Menu Handling Logic:
- IF C: Load, read entire file, then execute {nextStepFile}
- IF M: Return to {workflowFile} or {activityWorkflowFile}
- IF Any other comments or queries: help user respond then [Redisplay Menu Options]
#### EXECUTION RULES:
- ALWAYS halt and wait for user input after presenting menu
- User can chat or ask questions - always respond and then redisplay menu options
## CRITICAL STEP COMPLETION NOTE
ONLY WHEN step objectives are met and user confirms will you then load and read fully `{nextStepFile}`.
---
## SYSTEM SUCCESS/FAILURE METRICS
### SUCCESS:
- Content priorities surfaced (critical vs. secondary vs. nice-to-have)
- Navigation principles captured (not specifications)
- Explicit constraints documented
- Client clarity level noted
- Documented in output
### FAILURE:
- Created detailed page specifications instead of principles
- Generated content structure without client input
