Two fixed scopes.
One clear next move.

Use direct checkout when one of these lanes clearly fits. If the decision is still taking shape, scope it with us first—there is no penalty for talking before paying.

Both scopes are fixed-price, the blueprint is yours, and the diagnostic investment rolls forward as credit if Michai leads the resulting build.
