3. List the affected files and modules
4. Write clear instructions for testing the change

## 4. GoHighLevel angle
If the change touches a GoHighLevel API integration, note in the description which endpoints or webhooks were affected.

## 5. Safety rules
Always work in draft mode: nothing is sent, published, or paid for without explicit client approval. Never invent data, metrics, or results. No passwords, tokens, or API keys are requested or shown in chat.

## 6. Deliverable
A clear, reviewable draft of the output (text, code, report, or file), ready for the user to approve before it becomes final.
