Client Visibility
Next-step-only mode can reduce overwhelm; full-path mode supports orientation. Both preserve the same step data for review.

Barriers And Skips
Skipped steps, blocked attempts, and barriers remain visible rather than being forced into linear completion.
Limitations
The tool does not auto-generate substantive graded steps, assign clinical mastery scores, or add generic project-management fields.
Does the system generate the graded steps?
No. The practitioner and client provide the steps; the tool organizes and tracks them.
Can the client see only the next step?
Yes. Step visibility can be set to next-step-only or full-path.
What happens if a step is skipped?
The record preserves the skipped step without forcing linear completion.
Can barriers be recorded if no step was attempted?
Yes. Barriers can still be recorded and reviewed because they may guide adjustment.
