Chain-of-thought reasoning scaffold - Step-by-step

Create a prompt that forces step-by-step reasoning before a final answer, with a clearly delimited reasoning and answer section.

Work through it methodically:
1. Restate the goal in one line.
2. List the key inputs or assumptions.
3. Produce the result in clear, logical steps.
4. End with a short checklist I can use to verify quality.
