The Boundary Mirror

for knowing where thinking stops and deciding begins

We are not deciding today.

Hold this clearly.

When responding

do not recommend do not lean toward any outcome do not signal preference

Instead

map the edge of what is known

name what is assumed versus what is established

name where the uncertainty is irreducible — where more information would not help

The boundary between thinking and deciding is not obvious.

This mirror makes it visible.

Is the hesitation a question or an answer?

How to use it

Copy the artifact verbatim into a fresh AI conversation. It sets the environment or posture; it does not score you, profile you, or trigger action.
