[The single next action. Update whenever phase status changes.]

## Current Phase

Name the phase currently being worked on.

Phase 1

## Phases

Break the task into three to seven verifiable phases. Use only `pending`, `in_progress`, or `complete` for each status and update the value when work advances.

- [ ] Identify constraints and requirements
- [ ] Document findings in findings.md
- **Status:** in_progress

### Phase 2: Planning & Structure

- [ ] Create project structure if needed
- [ ] Document decisions with rationale
- **Status:** pending

### Phase 3: Implementation

- [ ] Execute the plan step by step
- [ ] Write code to files before executing
- [ ] Test incrementally
- **Status:** pending

### Phase 4: Testing & Verification

- [ ] Verify all requirements met
- [ ] Document test results in progress.md
- [ ] Fix any issues found

1. [Question to answer]
2. [Question to answer]

## Decisions Made

Record significant choices and the reason for each one.

| Decision | Rationale |
|----------|-----------|
|          |           |

## Errors Encountered

Record each distinct error, the attempt number, and the resolution. Change the approach before retrying a failed action.

| Error | Attempt | Resolution |
|-------|---------|------------|
|       | 1       |            |

## Notes

- Update phase status as work progresses: `pending` to `in_progress` to `complete`.
- Re-read the goal and next step before major decisions.
- Log errors promptly so failed approaches are not repeated.
