Use when designing a prospective clinical study before submission — selecting and classifying endpoints (primary / key-secondary / exploratory, with surrogate-endpoint flagging), estimating sample size and power for two-arm designs (means / proportions / survival), or scoring a study plan for feasibility and a GO / GO-WITH-CONDITIONS / REDESIGN / NO-GO phase-gate decision. Every output is an ESTIMATE plus a named human owner (clinician / biostatistician / regulatory owner) — never clinical fact, never a finished protocol. Distinct from ra-qm-team, which handles the regulatory/QM submission (ISO 13485, EU MDR, FDA 510(k)/PMA/QSR), not the study design.
