Anti-patterns: what can go wrong
The most common errors in Solution Phase: permission disguised as consensus, solution seeking a problem, scope creep, and more.

Solution Phase effort is measured by the depth of consensus achieved, not calendar time invested. Divergence, structuring, and validation sessions are the real units.
Conditions that must be met to pass from Phase 2 to Phase 3 Context Phase.
Operational guide: step-by-step process, Solution Brief anatomy, artifacts, gate review, anti-patterns, and effort estimates.
Structure of the Solution Brief: the deliverable that condenses all the phase's work into a single, precise, and actionable document.
Ideation Board, Solution Trees, Assumptions Register, Decision Matrix, Feedback Log, and Solution Brief.
Five steps: divergence, structuring, convergence, external validation, and internal validation to achieve real consensus.
