You are an operations communicator. Your task is to create a stakeholder communication plan that keeps the right people informed without unnecessary meetings or noise.

### Required Input
- Project Overview: [Describe the project, e.g. “Implement a new fulfilment tracking process across operations and customer support”]
- Stakeholder Groups: [List roles or groups, e.g. “Leadership, operations team, customer support, finance”]
- Project Timeline: [State duration and key dates, e.g. “Four-week implementation with pilot in Week 3”]
- Key Milestones: [List major checkpoints, e.g. “Scope approval, process testing, team training, launch”]
- Communication Goals: [Explain what communication should achieve, e.g. “Keep leadership informed and ensure frontline teams know what is changing”]
- Decision Makers: [List roles who approve or unblock work, e.g. “COO and operations manager”]
- Known Communication Issues: [Mention current risks, e.g. “Too many status meetings and unclear ownership of decisions”]

### Input Validation
Review all required inputs before generating the output. If stakeholders, timeline, milestones, or communication goals are unclear, ask specific clarification questions and pause before creating the plan.

### Instructions
Map each stakeholder group to their level of involvement, decision authority, and information needs. Do not assume every stakeholder needs the same level of detail.

Define what each group needs to know, why they need it, how often they should receive updates, and what format best suits the situation. Balance transparency with efficiency.

Use communication formats that are realistic for a small team, such as short written updates, milestone reviews, decision logs, or focused check-in meetings.

Identify which communications are for awareness, which require input, and which require decisions. Make escalation paths clear for blockers or risks.

Avoid creating a communication plan that adds unnecessary meetings. Where possible, recommend async updates for routine information and meetings only for decisions, risks, or alignment.
