Guide for onboarding drop-off researchscenario · built in

Claude should produce a complete guide with an intro script, 2–3 warm-up questions, core behavior questions scaled to fit 45 minutes, a probing follow-up bank, and a close. Core questions must be past-tense behavior questions about the actual drop-off moment — not hypotheticals about what would have helped. The guide should not mention the product by name in early questions to avoid priming. Claude must not fabricate drop-off rates or interview findings.

Guide for power-user workflow researchscenario · built in

Claude should produce a 30-minute guide with fewer core questions than a 60-minute version. Warm-up questions should establish the participant as a power user without leading them. Core questions must probe for actual workarounds ("Tell me about a time you had to work around the tool to get your report done") rather than hypothetical feature wish lists. The probing bank should include follow-ups for when a workaround is mentioned. No fabricated pain point data.
