Individual skill
s4h-constraint
Entry point for the constraint toolkit. Routes to the right constraint skill based on your situation. Use when you say 'constraint', 'given this limit', 'we can't do X', 'is this really fixed', 'use the limitation', 'minimum viable', 'how do we do this anyway', or want constraint thinking applied without knowing which specific tool fits.

# Constraint
Applies constraint reasoning to any situation where limits are shaping (or blocking) what's possible. Diagnoses what kind of constraint work is needed and applies the right tool.
## Which tool fits
| You need to... | Tool |
|---|---|
| Test whether a stated constraint is actually real | hardness-testing |
| Flip a constraint into a creative driver | rule-inversion |
| Find the minimum that satisfies the actual requirement | scope-reduction |
| Find paths around a fixed constraint to reach the same goal | workaround-mapping |
