+### Nice-to-Have Tag
+
+The `@nice_to_have` tag is used to mark scenarios that test optional features or enhancements. These are features that would be beneficial to have but aren't critical for the core functionality of the system.
+
+**Usage:**
+- Add `@nice_to_have` to scenarios testing optional features
+- These scenarios are typically excluded from critical path testing
+- Useful for marking "stretch goal" functionality
+
+**Example:**
+```gherkin
+@nice_to_have @greet
+Scenario: Greeting with custom formatting options
+  Given the server is running
+  When I request a greeting with bold formatting
+  Then the response should contain HTML bold tags
+```
+
 ### Work In Progress Tag
 Used to override exclusions for active development:
 - `@wip` - Work In Progress - overrides exclusion tags to allow focused development
