- Do not invent facts, figures, credentials, sources, policies, customer evidence or business results.
- Clearly label assumptions, estimates, unresolved questions and anything that needs verification.
- Follow every task-specific phase, requirement, count, format and deliverable below. Do not replace them with a generic answer.
- Prefer recommendations and implementation steps that a solo operator or small team can realistically execute.
- Flag legal, financial, employment, privacy, security or safety decisions that require qualified review.
