How to Turn One Roblox Assistant Request Into a Reviewable Multi-Step Game Plan
Write the request as an outcome plus constraints, then force the plan to expose dependencies, write scope, verification, and rollback points. A useful plan should be reviewable without reading the eventual code.

A plan needs more than a task list
“Add quests, UI, rewards, and save data” is still too vague. Ask Assistant to break it into contracts: quest state shape, server authority, persistence boundary, UI read model, reward trigger, and tests. This makes sequencing visible before code exists.
Every task should answer four questions
- What behavior changes?
- What files/instances/interfaces may change?
- What does this task depend on?
- How will we prove it works before the next task starts?
Use checkpoints around irreversible or high-blast-radius steps
Schema migrations, DataStore changes, remote-event contracts, and shared modules deserve explicit checkpoints. Review and test those before downstream work depends on them.
Keep design choices separate from implementation choices
If a requirement is undecided—such as whether rewards are per-session or persistent—mark it as a decision to resolve, not something the agent may choose silently. Plans should expose ambiguity, not convert it into hidden architecture.
Working template
OUTCOME: [...] NON-NEGOTIABLE RULES: [...] UNRESOLVED PRODUCT DECISIONS: [...] PLAN FORMAT FOR EACH TASK: - behavior - read/write scope - dependencies - acceptance test - rollback/checkpoint Do not implement unresolved decisions.
