Identify what is unknown before diagnosing

Packaged know-how that tells an agent how to do a job well.

You might say…

I nearly gave them an answer based on numbers that were six months old. I needed to know what I didn't know first.

What it does

Audits the framed problem for information gaps — what the client has not said, stale data, and load-bearing unverified assumptions — and recommends the few questions worth asking.

Trigger: Use when the brief feels thin or the situation is unfamiliar, before committing to a diagnosis built on incomplete information.

I/O: Problem frame, available context → gap audit (unknown knowns list + priority clarifying questions)

Recognise the problem?

The primitives are the commodity part. The fastest next step is a conversation about composing them into something that works for you.
