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.
