 **Plans reference the spec; they never restate, paraphrase, or summarize it.** The spec owns the WHAT and WHY — requirements, acceptance criteria, design decisions; the plan owns the HOW — tasks, files, code, commands. Cite it by path in the header and by section where a task needs context. Reference discipline never means skipping the spec: if brainstorming produced one, it exists and the plan cites it. No Placeholders still requires repeating code and commands WITHIN the plan; copying FROM the spec is different: a step that needs a requirement's prose is under-specified — turn it into a concrete action. Snapshotting spec text into the plan hides drift, not prevents it. "Zero context" means each step is mechanically executable, not that the plan repeats the spec.
 
+**Two narrow exceptions to reference discipline** — subagents executing the plan see the plan (or a single task of it), never the spec, so two kinds of spec content travel in the plan itself: the `## Global Constraints` section (the spec's project-wide requirements, exact values copied verbatim) and each task's `**Interfaces:**` block (exact signatures). Copy those values exactly; everything else stays referenced, never restated.

+## Task Right-Sizing

+A task is the smallest unit that carries its own test cycle and is worth a
