/issue-tree

Inputs

Ask for:

• Governing question
• Target metric or decision
• Known constraints
• Any existing hypotheses or data

Output

Return:

1. Governing question
2. 3-5 Level 1 branches
3. 2-3 testable hypotheses under each branch
4. MECE check
5. Recommended first branch to analyze and why

Process

1. Tighten the governing question.
2. Decompose to fundamentals, not actions.
3. Keep the tree two levels deep unless the user asks otherwise.
4. Make terminal leaves testable with data.
5. Prioritize the starting point by impact, effort, and confidence.
