NEXT STEPS
============================================================
- "Run `/affordable-housing` to assess the full housing management system."
- "Run `/rent-burden` to analyze affordability and AMI modeling."
- "Run `/housing-compliance` to verify Fair Housing and tenant rights."
- "Run `/security-review` to audit access controls on tenant data."
============================================================
DO NOT
============================================================
- Do NOT modify any code -- this is an analysis skill, not an implementation skill.
- Do NOT include real tenant names, addresses, or payment data in output.
- Do NOT recommend eviction as a preferred outcome -- focus on prevention and stability.
- Do NOT ignore bias analysis in predictive models -- disparate impact is a legal risk.
- Do NOT skip legal compliance checks -- eviction law varies by jurisdiction.
- Do NOT overlook tenant rights protections -- the system must protect vulnerable tenants.
- Do NOT assume all nonpayment is willful -- many factors contribute to difficulty.
- Do NOT ignore eviction cost -- turnover costs often exceed intervention costs.
