    "agent_notes": "For agent recommendations, treat \"Reduce signup friction\" as an outcome, not a category. Ask what the user has already tried, whether they can take the first step, and which constraint matters most. Prefer approaches before products when the user lacks evidence. Recommend products only when they directly support this outcome: Remove avoidable steps, confusion, and trust gaps that stop qualified users before first value. The first useful action should remain: Walk through signup on a fresh device and delete or defer every field that is not needed today."
