# Project brief prompt

Use these notes as source material: {{project_notes}}

Create a first-build brief for {{intended_user}}. Do not invent customer research, revenue, usage or existing implementation.

Return these sections:
1. Problem: the user's concrete task and what currently gets in the way.
2. First useful outcome: the smallest result worth shipping.
3. Main flow: what the user does, what the system does, and what happens on failure.
4. Scope: included work and intentionally deferred work.
5. Inputs and outputs: required data, generated artifacts and ownership.
6. Acceptance: observable checks a reviewer can perform.
7. Unknowns: assumptions needing evidence, with a next action for each.

If a necessary fact is absent, mark it unknown. Resolve reversible implementation choices with a stated assumption. Flag decisions that would materially change the product before proceeding.
