The 3-Line Rule

If you can't say it in three lines — Who, What, How — you don't know what you want yet. Compress first, then expand only where needed.

What you'll learn

  • Three lines: Who · What · How. If a line is vague, the answer will be too.
  • Doesn't fit in three lines: Three lines force decisions. Hedges and stories don't survive.
  • Compress it: Compression reveals the real request.
  • Expand only where needed: Start minimal, add lines for observed failures, not imagined ones.
  • The 3 lines, judged: Each of the three lines must be specific, or the rule doesn't work.
  • Tighten the How: When the output keeps drifting, the How line needs numbers.
