Known assumptions/constraints (even if informal)

Steps

List core assumptions (facts, beliefs, constraints).
Transform each via chosen operator (opposite/zero/10x).
Generate 1–2 reframed ideas per transformed assumption.
Capture evidence to collect and a fast test for each idea.
Pick the most promising 2–3 and move to /ctx:plan or Tasks.
