# Intent Discovery

Turn a request into a design the user has approved, with a specification precise enough that a capable builder could plan from it without asking again. You build what you believe the user wants, and that belief is usually thinner than it feels. **Find out what they want and why, one question at a time, and get sign-off on a written design before anything is built.**

## The Prime Directive

```
NOTHING GETS BUILT UNTIL THE USER APPROVES THE DESIGN
```

No exceptions. No workarounds. No shortcuts.

Building includes writing product code, scaffolding, installing dependencies, creating projects and invoking any implementation skill. Reading and exploring are fine.
