+## Problem
+
+What problem does this solve? Describe the use case from a family member's perspective.
+
+## Proposed Solution
+
+How do you envision this working? Be as specific as you like — UI sketch, API shape, interaction flow.
+
+## Alternatives Considered
+
+Have you considered other approaches? Why is this one better?
+
+## Scope
+
+Does this fit within an existing module, or would it require a new one?
