Decision-rights and single-threaded-owner register
Every critical decision and deliverable has exactly one named accountable owner, with advisers/consulted/informed parties and an escalation path explicitly recorded, eliminating diffused 'chicken' accountability.
You receive: A JSON object {scope, decisions:[{decision_id, decision_statement, owner:{name,role}, accountable_count, responsible:[...], consulted:[...], informed:[...], escalation_to:{name,role}, authority_boundary, reversible:bool}], advisers_registry:[...]} where each decision assigns roles in an Accountable/Responsible/Consulted/Informed scheme.

Example
A sample of what this play produces. Your result is generated for your inputs.
- Scope
- STUD.com pre-seed venture: soft launch, catalog, money surfaces, and entity formation. STUD is a one-founder-operator company (Dan Schmitz), so every decision has exactly one accountable owner by construction; the register exists to keep it that way as advisers and future hires join, and to record where advice enters before it looks like shared ownership. Adviser roles are illustrative: STUD has not yet engaged named counsel or a fractional CFO.
