# Tasks
Concrete, executable tasks toward net-positive impact. Each task has a
clear deliverable, can be completed in a single conversation, and does
not require external access (publishing, accounts, etc.).
Tasks that require human action (e.g., publishing to GitHub) are listed
separately as handoffs.
