# Crystallize North Star

Produce the one-sentence North Star that captures the user's research direction.

## Execution

## Format

"[verb] [specific goal], through [method/path], solving [what problem], ultimately [what impact]"

- **Achievable**: within user's capabilities + mitigations

## Process

1. Draft the North Star based on all accumulated context
2. Self-check against quality criteria
3. Present to user
4. Iterate if needed

## Output

Confirmed North Star statement.
