What it does

  1. Compares the request against the agreed scope line by line and tells you the truth: covered, on the line, or a clear addition you should charge for.
  2. Works out the real time and cost delta, including the knock-on work most people forget and the hit to the delivery date.
  3. Writes the client-facing change note in your voice, with three real options and a recommendation, framed so the client feels looked after rather than nickel-and-dimed.

The Breakdown

The build steps, prompt architecture, and a worked walkthrough. Open to members.

01 The drift diff: three passes before any verdict

02 The precedent test that decides the borderline calls

03 The delta: time first, money second, nothing missed

04 The note that asks for the yes without the fight

05 A worked run: when "should be simple" is a second project
