**Constraints:** [TIME / BUDGET / PEOPLE / POLITICAL / TECHNICAL LIMITS]

**What I've already tried or ruled out:** [OPTIONAL BUT HIGHLY VALUABLE]

**What I need from you:**
- Cut through the noise and tell me the **real problem**.
- Give me **one primary recommendation** (and at most one fallback).
- List what I should **stop doing**.
- End with **3–5 actions** I can take in the next 72 hours.

Be direct. No fluff.
