A structured product-judgment engine for deciding what NOT to build — faster. Applies the "spreadsheet test" (discipline problem in a tooling costume, or genuinely needs heavy machinery?), 80/20 structural analysis, figure/ground reading, and an adversarial evidence loop ending in the cheapest disconfirming test. Use whenever a user asks whether to build something, evaluates a feature/product/tool idea, asks "should we buy a tool or fix our process," brings a roadmap or backlog to prioritize, asks how to solve a product-team or CPO-level problem, proposes an AI initiative, or wants a verdict on where to invest effort. Also trigger on "is this worth building," "what should we cut," "help me prioritize," "do we need a tool for this," "evaluate this idea," or any request to assess an identified product opportunity. Trigger even when the user just describes a business problem and asks for a solution — the first move is always classifying the problem before solving it.
