Derived evidence / owner choice required

Route the weekly intake request at caseload cap

A potentially good-fit client requests weekly care while Elena is at the 22-client cap and one current client needs additional attention. What does Elena choose?

constraint

what governs the choice

  • The active weekly caseload does not exceed 22 clients without a deliberate capacity revision.
  • When capacity or fit is unavailable, the practice provides a warm referral or explicit waitlist choice.
  • Care begins and materially changes only with documented informed consent.
  • Derived or simulated evidence cannot diagnose, change treatment, or trigger crisis action without Elena adjudicating it.
evidence

what the seed already wrote

8 decisions ahead, 3 paths through them

Every figure below was authored into the seed. Stepping a path re-derives the states its author already computed — nothing here is predicted.

Refers the new client out, answers the message, clears notes before sessions, and pays for consultation and CE hours — costs cash and a fuller week.

Before any decision. Risk to continuity of care 0.24.
