Use fictional or approved information. Do not put secrets in this worksheet.

## Learning objectives
- Assess a task for clarity, verifiability, and reversibility.
- Define success before you start.
- Keep sensitive data and production actions outside an initial exercise.

## Exercise
Write three candidate tasks. For each task, name the result, verification method, permitted data, and recovery action. Select the task with the clearest evidence. If none has a reliable check, improve the brief before using an agent.

## Your response
- Scenario and scope:
- Assumptions and open questions:
- Proposed answer or decision, with reasons:

## Verify your response
| Claim or criterion | Evidence or test | Result or gap | Owner |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| | | | |
| | | | |
| | | | |

## Next action
- Action, owner, and date:
- When will you review this response?

## Principle to retain
Choose a task whose result you can check. Make the scope small enough to inspect the complete change.
