Aim Ledger
Turn a fuzzy intention into a contract you can inspect.
Clarifies the outcome, audience, constraints, proof, and stopping point before work begins. A ledger records what the work owes before anyone starts spending effort.

Load the sample or bring real material.
THE TOOL TRANSFORMS WHAT YOU ENTER. IT DOES NOT CALL A MODEL OR INVENT MISSING FACTS.
Worked example
Starting material
Weak: Build a useful planning tool.
Useful change
Strong: Build a local goal-definition instrument for nontechnical strategy leads, with a named artifact, four binary checks, explicit repository-only authority, and a stop before deployment. It is better because another person can identify the deliverable, test completion, and see exactly where the agent must stop.
