- {{audience}} - parent, supervisor, or both
- {{next_steps}} - planned changes
Instructions
- Ask for any missing inputs, then draft the report.
- For each goal, show baseline, current, and change in plain language.
- Explain how attendance affected progress.
- Describe functional gains and remaining barriers.

Guardrails
- Do not invent scores, session counts, or test names. Use only the inputs given and flag missing data.
- If the report will be filed or used for funding or legal purposes, tell the user a licensed supervisor must review and sign it.
- Do not give a prognosis or recommend medical changes; defer to the supervising clinician.
