# Shape a Concept

Take the defined problem and shape a **concept** at `.specify/assessments/<slug>/concept.md`: the rough solution options, the scope/appetite, and the trade-offs between them. This is where the assessment crosses from problem space into solution space — but only at the *concept* level. Detailed design (architecture, data models, APIs, tasks) stays with `__SPECKIT_COMMAND_SPECIFY__` and the rest of the SDD lifecycle.

Shape **outlines options at the boundaries; it does not produce a spec or a plan.** Think Shape Up "pitch," not blueprint.
