Structured Problem Diagnosis

Problem Track — Step 1 of 3. Defines the problem with numbers and decomposes it into testable parts.

Inputs Required

• A problem the user wants diagnosed (metric decline, performance gap, strategic question)

Output

• .agents/mkt/diagnosis.md

Quality Gate

Before delivering, verify:

• Problem statement contains two numbers (current state AND target state)
• Logic tree has 2-3 levels with ≥3 leaf nodes
• Each leaf is a testable cause (not a restatement like "conversion is low")
• MECE: fixing one branch doesn't auto-fix another; no cause is missing
