Your prompt

I have a hard deadline. Build me a countdown plan.

DEADLINE: [date and time]
DELIVERABLE: [what must be done]
CURRENT STATE: [where things stand now, what's done, what's not]
WORKING HOURS AVAILABLE: [hours per day I can dedicate]

First, break the deliverable into the smallest realistic milestones, working backward from the deadline. Then assign each milestone to a specific day. Build in:
- A 20% time buffer for the final milestone
- One contingency day if the timeline allows
- A clear "point of no return" day where scope must be frozen

Output a day-by-day checklist. If the deadline is not realistic given my hours, tell me plainly and propose what to cut or what extension to negotiate.

Paste it into Muse or any assistant. Blank fields stay as [brackets].
