Objective Brief

A single shape for "here is the task". The point is not tidiness — it is that every field is a place where an unstated assumption would otherwise stay unstated. A worker that receives prose guesses what done means; a worker that receives this brief can be judged against it.

Use it in both directions. Inbound, an arriving request gets normalized into the shape before you act on it. Outbound, a delegation prompt is this shape — you do not write a different prompt format per worker.

The template

Copy this shape. Fill what applies, delete what does not — an empty section left in place reads as a field that was considered and found empty, which is a claim you did not make.
