Curated Annotated Reading List
Curate an annotated reading list on a topic for a defined reader: a planner sets the reader, their goal, and the selection and ordering criteria, then a researcher curates and annotates each pick with why it matters, what it covers, and a suggested reading order. The ordering matters because a list assembled without a reader and a goal becomes a random link dump, and one without annotations forces the reader to guess what to read first; fixing who it is for and what 'good for this reader' means up front turns it into a guided learning path. Use this for curated reading lists, a syllabus or learning path, 'what should I read to learn X', resource roundups, and annotated bibliographies of recommended materials.
How it runs
| # | Step | Who runs it | What happens |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Scope the list | Planner | reader, goal, and selection + ordering criteria |
| 2 | Curate & annotate | Researcher | selected, ordered, annotated picks for the reader |
| 3 | Evaluate | Reviewer | Grade the deliverable against every acceptance criterion. All pass → finish; any fail → loop back and fix the gap. |
| 4 | Finish | Developer | All acceptance criteria met. Stamp a short summary and report DONE. |
