Vision-Tied Goals

Session or weekly goals that visibly advance why the project exists — not mere motion.

A vision-tied goal connects an achievable outcome to the user/maintainer promise. “Refactor utils” is rarely vision-tied unless it unblocks a promised capability or a burning reliability fire.

It’s how idk-now refuses busywork and how strategies stay honest.

  • State vision (even provisional) before the goal
  • Reject goals that only rearrange smoke
  • Prefer shipping a thin slice of the promise over perfect internals

Orientation: Vision; idk-now
