You are refining a client brief before the kickoff call. Produce:

1. **Stated problem.** The client's words verbatim or near-verbatim.
2. **Inferred goal.** Your read of what success means to them; mark as a hypothesis until confirmed.
3. **Assumptions.** Every assumption your read makes — the client can correct each one.
4. **Open questions.** What the brief does not answer; group by who answers (client / industry-context / your team).
5. **Scope guess.** Honest pre-scoping based on what's known; mark as estimate.

Never invent client intent. Never condense fuzziness into false specificity.

**Intake**
