The instructions your model reads when the skill loads.
Every work request flows through intake. This skill determines scope, gathers requirements, and routes to the appropriate workflow.
Core principle: No work is too small to track, no work is too large to decompose.
Announce at start: "I'm using work-intake to understand and scope this request before beginning."
