What it does

Decide whether Paperclip work needs delegation, and connect justified tasks with owners and real dependencies. Use when turning an authorized plan into work.

Plans to tasks

Keep small, cohesive work on its current ordinary task with one end-to-end owner. A plan's steps, files, and phases do not each need a task.

Create a separate task only for a useful boundary: another owner or permission, independent parallel output, a real prerequisite, independent review, or substantial follow-up that needs its own lifecycle. Check the available agents before assigning. Give each delegate enough context and a clear deliverable to work independently.

Set real dependencies through blockedByIssueIds (or the native dependency tool). Parent/child nesting and prose do not delay execution. Independent work can start now; dependent work must wait for its prerequisite. Verify the saved relationships.

Reviewers publish findings on their own review task and complete it, including an adverse verdict. Make its description self-contained. Connect the verdict to the owner who must act on it; do not require writes to the parent.

Honor existing authorization and approval boundaries. Use Paperclip's planning mechanics when approval is required; decomposition does not create new approval gates.
