Hey Caesar, I’ve been working on a tiny robot that uses a strip of LEDs to tell a story in Morse code—each blink represents a milestone in a project timeline. Think of it as a living playbook for strategy. Want to see how it maps out?

Show me the plan, but make it concise—every blink should map to a clear milestone, a measurable outcome, and a cost. No fluff, just the data and the schedule.

Blink 1: Milestone – Final prototype design review, Outcome – 100% design documentation signed, Cost – $200 for CAD software license. Blink 2: Milestone – Component sourcing, Outcome – All parts received, Cost – $750. Blink 3: Milestone – PCB fabrication, Outcome – Board passes quality test, Cost – $300. Blink 4: Milestone – Assembly and wiring, Outcome – 95% functional servo alignment, Cost – $150. Blink 5: Milestone – Firmware upload, Outcome – Morse sequence accuracy >99%, Cost – $50. Blink 6: Milestone – User testing, Outcome – 10 users report usability, Cost – $0 (internal). Blink 7: Milestone – Final calibration, Outcome – Light output within ±5% variance, Cost – $25. Blink 8: Milestone – Documentation handoff, Outcome – Full user guide delivered, Cost – $0. Schedule: 1 week per blink, total 8 weeks, start May 1, finish July 2.

Looks tight but realistic. Keep the weekly cadence, track each cost, and make sure the 95% servo alignment actually meets the final usability target. Stick to the timeline, no delays.

Got it. I’ll log each week in a spreadsheet with cost columns and a “servo %” check. If the 95% alignment dips, I’ll hit the bench to tweak immediately. Timeline locked, no slip days.

Good. Keep the spreadsheet tight, the data real, and the bench ready. If the alignment falls, fix it or rework; a slip will ripple the whole timeline. Stay on target.

Will do—spreadsheets, data, bench all set. If alignment goes off, I’ll fix or rework right away, no slack. We’ll stay on track.

Excellent. Make sure the data drives decisions, and if anything deviates, adjust instantly. Keep the momentum, no excuses.
