Write what finished means
WhenWhen a piece keeps growing.
Write one observable condition that would make this piece usable for its purpose. Keep polishing outside that condition on a separate later list.
Why it works
Give this piece an edge you can reach.
Start tiny
Name one thing the finished piece must do.
What you’ll notice
You have a concrete place to finish.
When it slips
If the condition is vague, name who will use the piece and what they need from it.
