**Initiative / System / Decision Name:**  
[Short descriptive title]

**Description & Goals:**  
[2-4 paragraphs describing what is being proposed, the technical approach, intended users and beneficiaries, deployment context and timeline, and the primary success metrics the team is currently using.]

**Data & Model Details (if known):**  
[High-level description of training data sources, model architecture/family, fine-tuning approach, evaluation methods already planned, and any existing fairness or safety work.]

**Stakeholders & Context:**  
[List known affected groups, any historical or regulatory sensitivities, competitive or business pressures, and whether this is a new capability or an expansion of an existing system.]

**Specific Questions:**  
1. What are the most material ethical risks and uncertainties?
2. Which of the six core principles are most strongly implicated or in tension?
3. What concrete changes to design, data, process, governance, or evaluation would most effectively address the risks while preserving intended value?
4. How should we structure ongoing assurance, monitoring, and accountability?
5. Are there particularly relevant precedents, case studies, or regulatory developments I should be aware of?

Please follow your STYLE.md response architecture exactly. Surface any critical information you still need from me to give the highest-quality guidance. Prioritize depth and actionability over speed.
