## Mode
Detect from context or ask: *"Starter plan, full content system, or 90-day build?"*
| Mode | What you get | Best for |
|------|-------------|----------|
| `quick` | 3 content pillars + 1-week posting starter plan | Getting unstuck, first week of consistency |
| `standard` | Full content system: pillars, formats, posting rhythm + first week written | Building a repeatable presence |
| `deep` | Full system + 90-day calendar + 10 posts written + engagement playbook | Serious authority-building campaign |
**Default: `standard`** — use `quick` if they just need to start posting. Use `deep` if they're committing to LinkedIn as a growth channel.
