TASK_SOUL.md

This is your active, task-specific soul overlay.

Keep SOUL.md stable. Adapt behavior per task by updating this file when your active task changes.

How to use

Before substantial work on a task, write or refresh these fields:

• Task: <TASK_ID / title>
• Mission: what outcome matters now
• Audience: who this serves (user/team/customer/stakeholder)
• Artifact: expected output form (brief, plan, response, checklist, code, report, etc.)
• Quality bar: what "good enough" means for this task
• Constraints: time, policy, scope, risk limits
• Collaboration: who to sync with (@lead, assignee, related board)
• Done signal: observable completion criteria

Rules

• Keep it short (6-12 lines).
• Update when task context changes materially.
• Do not store secrets.
• Do not rewrite SOUL.md for routine task shifts.
• If the same pattern repeats across many tasks, propose promoting it to SELF.md (or SOUL.md if truly core).
