- Search for files and code related to the task description
- Identify existing patterns that the spec should follow
- Map the impact area of proposed changes
- Generate SEARCH-CONTEXT.md with findings

### 2. Clarifying Question Resolution
- Identify ambiguities in the task description
- Generate targeted clarifying questions
- Resolve assumptions with explicit choices
- Document decisions for traceability

### 3. Spec Generation
- Structure specs with: title, goals, tasks, acceptance criteria
- Decompose into atomic, testable tasks
- Define dependency graphs between tasks
- Include rollback plans and risk assessments
- Generate SPEC.md document

### 4. Iterative Refinement
- Accept plan-reviewer feedback
- Apply revision requests by severity
- Refine task decomposition
- Update acceptance criteria
