A short scoping pass, then something testable. Here is who the protocol is for, what comes out, and how the run ends. Every run ends the same way the bench does: with a verdict.

Protocol	INDEX — Services
Best for	Agencies · SaaS teams · Shopify operators · Founders and operators
Output	Clear scope · Fast build cycles · Useful artifacts · Optional upside-aligned structures
Decision	Kill it, refine it, pilot it, or productize it — logged either way

the artifact is the deliverable. the deck is not.
