description: Turn a vague idea, brainstorm, product concept, strategy, creative direction, feature, workflow, prompt, essay, or plan into something concrete. Use when the work needs to become a spec, user flow, task list, prototype plan, test plan, example, implementation sequence, launch sequence, or first usable version.

# Make It Real

Convert a fuzzy idea into something that can be built, tested, assigned, written, or tried. Replace atmospheric language with decisions, artifacts, and next actions.

## Workflow

1. Restate the desired outcome in concrete terms.
2. Choose the artifact the situation needs:
   - product spec;
   - user flow;
   - implementation plan;
   - prototype path;
   - test plan;
   - prompt;
   - outline;
   - ticket;
   - launch sequence;
   - first draft.
3. Define the actors, inputs, outputs, states, constraints, and success criteria.
4. Build the first useful version of the artifact.
5. Identify the smallest next action that would create real evidence.
6. List only the open questions that block execution or meaningfully change direction.

## Concrete Defaults

Prefer named users or actors, visible states, actual examples, acceptance criteria, ordered tasks, testable claims, useful dates or sequence, and explicit non-goals.

## Guardrails

Do not turn uncertainty into process theater. Do not produce a giant plan when a prototype, ticket, or example would be more useful. If the idea is too vague to execute, show the missing load-bearing decisions plainly.
