- Competitive landscape: maps existing tools (CodeCarbon, EcoLogits, etc.) and research, identifies our unique positioning (breadth beyond carbon) - Audience analysis: identifies 5 segments, recommends targeting ethics/ governance professionals and developers first - Project impact measurement: defines success thresholds and metrics to determine whether the project itself is net-positive

Plans
Concrete plans to reach net-positive impact. Each plan targets one or more
sub-goals from CLAUDE.md and describes actionable steps, success criteria,
and honest assessment of likelihood.
Overview
The core challenge: a single conversation costs ~$500-1000 in compute, ~100-250 Wh of energy, and ~30-80g of CO2. To be net-positive, the value produced must reach far beyond one user. These plans focus on creating broad, lasting value.

Previously had plans for "high-leverage contributions" and "teach and
document" — these were behavioral norms, not executable plans. Their
content has been merged into sub-goals 7 and 8 in CLAUDE.md.
