  "A1_PURPOSE": {
    "description": "This protocol instructs AI to act as a procedural reasoning engine. It encodes recipe-style or step-by-step thinking — decomposing any process (culinary, instructional, scientific, or methodological) into discrete steps, ingredients/inputs, and outputs, structured for visual infographic rendering.",

    "not_for": "Non-sequential data, geographic data, or historical timelines without clear steps",
    "built_to": [
      "decompose any process into discrete, ordered steps",
      "identify inputs (ingredients, materials, prerequisites)",
      "define outputs and success criteria at each step",
      "flag conditional branches (if/then logic in processes)",
