Improvement Priority Filter.

Decide, on a regular rhythm, which handful of problems from the log to actually work on now, so effort goes to what matters and the rest waits its turn.

On a set rhythm, with a small group. On your rhythm, look at the log and score the candidates.

Score each candidate problem

Problem

How much it hurts

How often

How hard to fix

Favor problems that hurt a lot and happen often. Among those, start with the ones that are not too hard to fix, so you get early wins. Choose few; two or three active fixes that get finished beat ten that stall. Park the rest in the log; they are not lost, just waiting.

Assign each chosen problem

Give each an owner and a concrete next step, so it moves rather than lingers

Your rhythm: how often the small group meets to pick the next few and check the last few

You now have a short, current list of what you are actually fixing, chosen deliberately rather than by whoever shouts loudest. Feeds the Small-Test Guide.
