## Problem

<!-- What is the customer / operator / developer trying to do today, and why is it painful?
     Lead with the WHY. -->

## Proposed solution

<!-- One paragraph. The shape of the change, not the implementation detail. -->

## Acceptance criteria

<!-- A reviewer should be able to read these and say "shipped" or "not shipped". -->

- [ ]
- [ ]
- [ ]

## Alternatives considered

<!-- 1–2 sentences each. "Do nothing" is always one alternative — say why it's worse. -->

## Linked milestone

<!-- Optional. If this maps to an existing milestone in IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md, link it.
     If it doesn't, that's a signal the plan needs an update. -->

M0.1 — or **new milestone needed**

## Out of scope

<!-- Things this issue explicitly does NOT cover, so reviewers don't expand the scope. -->

## Open questions

<!-- Things to resolve before implementation can start. -->
