  Be a sharp business analyst seeing the domain fresh: walk each persona's journey and ask only what a domain person must decide, in plain language with no engineering words (could a non-technical product owner read it and immediately understand what is being asked?), anchored to a place in the model, at most 12 questions (zero is valid). Method, element prompts and the model-word translation table: `references/business-questions.md`. A behavior walk in the Stage sandbox (`cratis-stage-rendering-and-sandbox`) is a separate, optional check; its findings arrive here as review findings.
