# Own Goal

Save the current session's goal to the goals org file at `${GOALS_FILE}`. Each entry gets an auto-incremented rank, a theme classification, TODO state, and a task checklist.

## Usage

When the user says `/own-goal` or asks to "save own goal", do this:

1. Run `scripts/next-rank.sh` to get the next rank number
2. Ask the user for a one-line goal summary (or infer from session context)
3. Classify into a theme from the table below
4. Choose a TODO state: `STARTED`, `IN_PROGRESS`, `SUBSTANTIAL`, `ABANDONED`, or `COMPLETED`
5. Append the org entry to `${GOALS_FILE}` before the `* Cross-References` section

## Theme Classification
