Use this template to prepare input for the candidate seed skill. Fill in each section from your Discovery document, scoping decisions, or direct knowledge. Sections marked required must be present for a complete seed; the skill will flag missing required sections but still produce the seed.
What does this engagement commit to producing? Name the artifact or class of artifacts. Be specific enough that a reader can distinguish this work from other works the same engagement might produce under a different seed.
[Your content here]
Name the readers, users, or audiences. Specific enough for shaping criteria. List each consumer with enough context that selection criteria for shapings can be derived.
[Your content here]
What posture does the work take toward its consumers? Action-directing, advisory, neutral, argued, descriptive, or a composition. The voice governs shaping and rendering across the engagement's lifetime.
[Your content here]
What must the work do and not do? Name constraint classes: regulatory, ethical, contractual, domain-practice. The seed doesn't enumerate every constraint — it names the classes.

What does finished, good, or complete mean? For continuously maintained work, the success condition is the maintenance property ("current within bounded lag") rather than a completion criterion.

Who is authorized to contribute? Who confirms at protocol-required points? Which agents are registered with which instructions? The roster evolves; name it at creation.

Domain-specific assertions the engagement requires beyond R-A5–R-A10. Common additions below.
If the engagement commits to producing specific artifact types, list each with: artifact name, consumer, format.

Who governs the engagement (Operator). Who participates (Contributors). What designations apply.

Methodology alignment, federation constraints, access mode, or other domain-specific commitments.

Where did this content come from? Name the Discovery decisions, scoping settlements, or conversation turns. The skill's drafter's notes will preserve this provenance.
