- What questions it needs to answer: {{use_case}} missing
- Constraints: 

Response format:
1. Brief recommendation or approach
2. Main deliverable, organized into clear sections
3. Assumptions and unresolved questions
4. Validation or quality checklist

Usage instructions

Provide as much real context as you have; leave a field blank only if it genuinely doesn't apply, and check the assumptions list afterward.

Example output

A short recommendation, a structured deliverable broken into clear sections, a list of assumptions, and a validation checklist, all specific to the design a strategy for handling multi-hop questions scenario described above.

Limitations

Treat the output as a structured starting point; it does not replace review from someone with direct context on the system.
