# novahiz-assess-shape
**Step 4 of 5** in the assessment roadmap. No file changes here. The deliverable is a solution concept.
Previous step: `novahiz-assess-define`. Next step: `novahiz-assess-decide`.
## Entry
The spec is set. Shape the concept: what it looks like, how it works, and what sets it apart.
## What to shape
### 1. Solution architecture
How does it hang together at a high level? Which main components, and how do they interact?
### 2. Key design decisions
Which three to five choices move the outcome the most? For each, list the options and the recommended pick.
### 3. Differentiation
What does this do that existing alternatives do not? What is the unique value?
### 4. MVP scope
What is the smallest version that still delivers value? What can be cut without losing the core benefit?
### 5. Build strategy
Incremental or big bang? What is the first slice that proves the approach?
## Shape method
Settle design decisions through the harness `question` tool, following the `novahiz-plan` pattern: target first, then approach, then risks.
```
question({
questions: [
{
header: "<design decision>",
question: "<what you need to decide and why>",
options: [
{ label: "<recommended>", description: "<consequence>" },
{ label: "<option>", description: "<consequence>" }
]
}
]
})
```
## Output
A solution concept with all five sections. Specific enough for decide to call go or no-go, abstract enough that implement
