5) Group size & mix: {{group_size_mix}}
6) Constraints (privacy/authority/time): {{constraints}}
7) Accessibility needs: {{accessibility_needs}}

Also provide: a one-paragraph rationale for structure choices; a pre-read/participant email; a capture template for decisions, owners, and deadlines; and 24-hour/7-day follow-up notes.
