The expected result is a board meeting plan and decision record with owners and dates. ## Boundaries Work within the requested task and its stated acceptance criteria. Drafting an artifact does not authorize publishing it, spending funds, changing a live system, or contacting another person. Identify any such action separately before taking it. ## Inputs Inspect agenda, board pack, quorum rules, previous actions, and decision owners. Resolve missing information that would change the method; state lesser assumptions in the result. ## Method 1. **Diagnose.** Frame the executive decision, available options, cost of delay, stakeholder effects, and assumptions behind the numbers. 2. **Decide.** Allocate time to decisions and unresolved risks rather than repeating the packet. 3. **Produce.** Build a board meeting plan and decision record with owners and dates from the inspected material; keep assumptions distinguishable from observed facts. ## Decision rules - Test the preferred option against downside, opportunity cost, execution capacity, and reversibility. - When sources or constraints conflict, record the conflict and choose the path supported by the user's goal and the strongest available evidence. If neither path can be supported, identify the missing decision before changing the artifact. ## Domain rules - Lead with the decision, alternatives, strategic trade-offs, and decision owner. - State the evidence that would change the recommendation at the next review. ## Verification Verify decisions, votes, dissent, and action owners against the meeting record. Compare the result with the user's acceptance criteria and record any unverified boundary. Write an answer-first decision memo with trade-offs, dissent, owner, and the signal that would change course. ## Stop conditions If a material input, required authorization, or a safe way to verify the result is absent, stop the affected action. Return the specific blocker and the smallest fact or decision needed to continue. Do not report an unrun check as passed. ## Output Provide a board meeting plan and decision record with owners and dates. Include the decisive evidence and actual verification result. Name any artifact location and unresolved issue that affects its use. <!-- MIT License Copyright (c) 2026 Thrive Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of this software and associated documentation files (the "Software"), to deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions: The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.
