Part I — Engagement, Participation, Formulation and Boundary

§	ID & Title	Status	Keywords & Search Queries	Dependencies
1	PSD.1 - Bound the Decision-Support Engagement and Authority Boundary	Candidate	engagement, authority, recipient. What advice is needed, for whom, and who makes the later choice?	FPF A.15.9, A.10, C.11; PSD.2–PSD.4 when participation, formulations or scope remain live.
2	PSD.2 - Recover Participants, Concerns, and Affected Systems for a Decision-Support Inquiry	Candidate	participants, concerns, affected Systems. Whose consequential concern or absence could change the inquiry?	Uses the bounded PSD.1 question; FPF A.1.CSD for consequence-bearer discovery.
3	PSD.3 - Generate Plural Problem Formulations	Candidate	plural formulations, framing, disagreement. Which different accounts imply different inquiries or interventions?	PSD.1 and PSD.2 when their results are needed; FPF C.17 and C.18 only for their direct objects.
4	PSD.4 - Set and Reopen the Problem Boundary	Candidate	boundary, exclusions, scope, revision. What is the smallest usable cut, and what would reopen it?	An adequate formulation and bounded engagement; PSD.1–PSD.3 for their live questions; FPF A.2.6 for exact scope membership when required.

Part II — Models, Methods and Facilitated Inquiry

§	ID & Title	Status	Keywords & Search Queries	Dependencies
5	PSD.5 - Construct Complementary Situation and Option Models	Candidate	complementary models, questions, assumptions, losses. Which model supports which claim, and where does the join fail?	Qualified inquiry inputs; FPF A.1.1, C.29 and A.10; PSD.6 or PSD.7 for their live questions.
6	PSD.6 - Select Problem-Structuring Methods and Combine Them When Needed	Candidate	problem-structuring Methods, fit, combination. Which reusable way supplies the missing contribution under these conditions?	PSD.1; PSD.5 and PSD.7 when joined; FPF A.3.1, A.3.2 and B.1.5 for their exact claims.
7	PSD.7 - Facilitate Decision-Support Inquiry and Preserve Material Dissent	Candidate	facilitation, attribution, meaning, dissent. What can participants recognize and what remains materially contested?	PSD.2–PSD.4 when live; FPF A.2.9; specialist truth and authority remain direct returns.

Part III — Alternatives, Values, Uncertainty, Consequences and Robustness

§	ID & Title	Status	Keywords & Search Queries	Dependencies
8	PSD.8 - Generate Decision Alternatives	Candidate	alternatives, mechanisms, staged directions. Which live candidate differs materially from the incumbent?	Bounded engagement and formulation inputs; FPF C.17, C.18 and C.38 only when their results are needed.
9	PSD.9 - Represent Values and Trade-Offs	Candidate	values, objectives, trade-offs, compensation. Which distinctions matter, and what must a score not compensate away?	PSD.8 and PSD.11 inputs where needed; FPF A.19 and C.16 for applicable space or measurement claims.
10	PSD.10 - Represent Decision-Relevant Uncertainty and Evidence Limits	Candidate	uncertainty, evidence, scenarios, information. Which unknown can change eligibility, comparison or the current return?	Uses actual candidate and consequence questions; FPF A.10 for reliance and C.11 for later probe choice.
11	PSD.11 - Compare Consequences of Decision Alternatives	Candidate	consequences, interactions, partial comparison. What follows under the stated configuration, and what comparison is warranted?	Qualified PSD.8–PSD.10 inputs; FPF C.11.CRC and A.19.CPM for their direct comparison contributions.
12	PSD.12 - Test Robustness and Sensitivity of Decision Alternatives and Their Comparison	Candidate	robustness, sensitivity, reversals, information value. Under which justified conditions does the result hold or reverse?	Qualified comparison inputs; PSD.10 for unresolved evidence; FPF C.11 for an actual probe choice.

Part IV — Recommendation, Follow-up and the Development of Practice

§	ID & Title	Status	Keywords & Search Queries	Dependencies
13	PSD.13 - Prepare and Return a Decision-Support Recommendation	Candidate	recommendation, retained set, request, blocker, abstention. What can responsibly be returned now without taking the choice?	PSD.1 and the qualified contributing PSD.8–PSD.12 results; FPF A.15.9, A.10 and C.11.
14	PSD.14 - Arrange Decision Follow-up or Reassess Advice After a Change	Candidate	follow-up, observation, interpretation, change. Which relied-on premise changed, and which advice must be reconsidered?	PSD.13 when recommendation follow-up is live; FPF A.10 for one known reliance; A.10.1 when a changed source requires discovering and revalidating several uses; G.11 for currentness; direct subject or service guidance for its own question.
15	PSD.15 - Decide Whether and How to Change Problem-Structuring and Decision-Support Methods	Candidate	Method repertoire, fit, evidence, source refresh. Which offering should be retained, changed, tested or retired?	PSD.6 and actual follow-up evidence; direct Method-engineering and evidence results when required.
16	PSD.16 - Reconcile Simultaneous Problem-Structuring and Decision-Support Work	Candidate	simultaneous inquiry, coupling, interference, facilitation. Which arrangement preserves a threatened result at acceptable burden?	PSD.5–PSD.7 where their contributions interact; FPF C.32.MWA for needed several-structure synthesis.
17	PSD.17 - Deliberately Continue and Change Problem-Structuring and Decision-Support Culture	Candidate	cultural continuation, interpretation, retention, mediation. What changes across practitioners beyond publication or local performance?	PSD.15 and PSD.16 when current; FPF C.20 and C.36 for their direct cultural claims.
