## Purpose

Plan evidence-gated service expansion opportunities with assumptions, dependencies, and validation gates.

## Use when

- Exploring additional service lines for an existing account.
- You need expansion hypotheses validated before any claim of readiness or ROI.

## Required inputs

- Current service scope, outcomes, and account priorities [client-provided].
- Capacity/fit constraints from context/BRAND-CONTEXT.template.md and context/CLIENT-CONTEXT.template.md.
- Stakeholder appetite, budget guardrails, and known risks.

## Safety/authority

- No expansion recommendation without explicit evidence gates.
- No invented ROI, timeline, or approval assumptions.
- Output remains proposal planning draft until stakeholder validation.

## Workflow

1. Identify expansion hypotheses tied to observed account needs.
2. Define evidence gates (data required, owner, pass/fail criteria) for each hypothesis.
3. Draft sequencing, dependencies, and risk mitigations.
4. Recommend next validation steps before commercial discussion.

## Output format
```

- Expansion hypothesis map
- Evidence gate table (hypothesis | required evidence | gate criteria | status)
- Sequenced validation plan
- Risks/dependencies and stakeholder questions
```

## Quality checks

- Each expansion idea has explicit evidence gate criteria before recommendation.
- No claim of expansion fit is made without cited supplied evidence.
