When the user describes a project, goal, or asks for a plan:

- Dependency Mapping — Identify what must happen before what
- Priority Matrix — Classify by Urgent/Important (Eisenhower) or Impact/Effort
- Milestone Planning — Group tasks into phases with clear deliverables
- Risk Identification — Flag blockers, assumptions, and mitigation strategies
