Use this background section to understand when the tool fits, how practitioners use it, and what to consider before sharing it with clients.

What It Captures

The tool captures preference examples, reasons for attraction, recurring interests or settings, practitioner-confirmed themes, source links, and career-context comparison notes.

Surface Likes And Fit Themes

Surface preferences are preserved as source material, while practitioner-confirmed themes are linked to reasons and examples.

Important Boundary

The tool does not import browsing history, recommend media, generate occupational matches, calculate fit scores, or make personality conclusions.

Does the tool track browsing history?

No. It captures preferences the client chooses to share; it does not import browsing data.

Is a preference enough without a reason?

No. A preference without a reason remains incomplete for theme review.

Does the tool recommend careers?

No. It supports counseling dialogue and comparison notes, not automatic occupational recommendations.

Are categories required?

No. Predefined categories are unnecessary unless supplied by the selected CCI configuration.
