Think in public, with the brain.

One threaded feed — Ryan, Jessica, and Claude. Half-formed thoughts, overheard lines, reference drops. Nothing is a decision until you tag it #DECIDE.

The magic hour window on Apr 28 opens at 17:40 — sun clears the tower next door at 17:43. You have 12 clean minutes. Drafting the case for Jessica now.

CLAUDE · DRAFTING CASE FOR JESSICA

Apr 28 · Sun sets at 19:48. Tower at 51 Reade Street clips the PH-3 west window at 17:43. A 17:40 call gives us the full 12-minute cross-light window; a 18:00 call loses the best horizon band to shadow. Cost delta: zero. Light gained: 17 minutes.

#DECIDE

Jessica is aligned on the creative choice, but approver notes must live in the OS before the shoot packet locks.

#TASTE

Use restraint as the luxury signal. Avoid explaining what the frame already makes obvious.
