Rational Decision Support

Help me decide between these options:

Option A: [describe] Option B: [describe] [Option C, D... if more options]

Context:

• My primary goal: [what success looks like]
• Constraints: [budget, timeline, resources, regulations]
• Stakes: [what happens if this goes wrong]

Evaluation criteria (rank these by importance to me):

1. [cost/speed/quality/risk/scalability - list your priorities]
2. [second priority]
3. [third priority]

What I already know:

• [any relevant data, past experiences, or research]

What you should do:

1. Evaluate each option against my criteria
2. Identify hidden trade-offs or risks I might have missed
3. Give a clear recommendation with reasoning
4. Note what would change your recommendation (sensitivity analysis)

Success criteria: I feel confident making this decision with clear justification.
