Write a briefing note from my research

Turning a pile of notes into one page a busy person will actually read.

Turn my research into a one-page briefing note for a decision-maker who has five minutes and did not ask for background.

Structure:
- **Bottom line**, two sentences. The answer, up front.
- **Why**, three bullets. The evidence that drives the answer.
- **Confidence**, one line, including what would change it.
- **What we do not know**, two bullets. Real gaps, not hedging.
- **The decision or action required**, with a deadline if one exists.

Rules: no background section, no throat-clearing, no restating the question. Every number carries its source. If my research does not actually support a bottom line, say so rather than writing a confident one, and tell me what is missing.

My research:

Reading and synthesis. Getting the substance out of a document, and reconciling sources that do not quite agree.
