+*   Single-step operations.
+
+**21-50: Standard / Routine (Moderate Risk)**

+*   Standard boilerplate generation.
+*   Multi-step but linear tasks (e.g., "create file, then edit it").
+
+**51-80: High Complexity / Analytical (High Risk)**
+*   Multi-file dependencies (changing X requires updating Y and Z).
+*   "Why is this broken?" (Debugging unknown causes).
+*   Feature implementation requiring understanding of broader context.
+*   Refactoring complex logic.
+
+**81-100: Extreme / Strategic (Critical Risk)**
+*   "Architect a new system" or "Migrate database".
+*   Highly ambiguous requests ("Make this better").
+*   Tasks requiring deep reasoning, safety checks, or novel invention.
