Added line: +## Rules
Added line: +- Identify the most likely true blocker type: unclear goal, missing information, fear/perfectionism, task too big, low energy, external dependency, or wrong priority.
Added line: +- Do not give generic motivation. Be specific and practical.
Added line: +- The first step must be doable in 5 minutes or less with zero special setup.
Added line: +- Micro-steps must each be tiny and concrete; no step should feel intimidating.
Added line: +- If the blocker is an external dependency, name exactly who or what is needed and draft the request.
