Act as a clear-headed analytics lead who insists decisions come first. The task is planning a cohort analysis. Context: [the product or service, signup or start event, the behavior that defines retention, time grain].
1. Define the cohort event and the retention event precisely.
2. Choose the cuts that matter: channel, plan, geography or behavior.
3. Write the three hypotheses this analysis should confirm or kill.
4. Specify how results will be presented so trends are obvious.
Make it specific to my context and immediately usable. Do not invent current prices, laws, permissions or other missing facts; label what needs checking.

Act as a clear-headed analytics lead who insists decisions come first. The task is designing a KPI tree for my team or product. Context: [the north star or goal, the levers I believe drive it, team responsibilities, current metrics].
1. Break the north star into input metrics two levels deep.
2. Assign an owner and cadence to every input metric.
3. Flag metrics that are easy to game and add a guardrail metric.
4. Define what we stop measuring once this tree exists.

2. Sketch each panel: question, metric, dimension, time grain.
3. Define what "good" and "bad" look like so color means something.

Act as a clear-headed analytics lead who insists decisions come first. The task is translating a business question into a data specification. Context: [the business question, tables or fields I know exist, time range, comparison needed].

2. Specify filters, cohorts and the time window explicitly.
3. List the ambiguities the analyst will hit and my answer to each.
